Abstract
A method for providing automatic placement of a lens in a cartridge is provided. The method includes seizing, by a nozzle head of a lifting tool, the lens from a pick position of a platform based on an air flow through the nozzle head and depositing, by the lifting tool, the lens at a delivery point in the cartridge by changing the air flow through the nozzle head. The method includes determining, by a processor coupled to the lifting tool, a location of a haptic of the lens with respect to a feature of the cartridge. The method includes adjusting, by the lifting tool, the haptic from the location to a target orientation on the cartridge when the location of the haptic is determined to be misaligned with the feature. The method can be implemented as an apparatus, a system, and/or a computer program product.
