Diagonal Cutting Machines
In-Line System CNC multi-axis machine for S/L and Q/L
The unit provides a solution to cut, break and manipulate multiple pieces from a larger raw glass blank. The raw blank is scored on a programmable angle across the blank width, automatically broken at the score. The broken off part is then picked up, rotated and position onto a downstream process, such as a CNC shape cutter. The diagonal cutter is used to reduce the amount of scrap when cutting S/L and Q/L and also to reduce the amount of raw glass inventory.
Specifications:
- Max Raw Block:(40″ x 80″ / 1m x 2m)
Custom sizes also available - Thickness: 3mm to 6mm
other thickness can be optionally accommodated - Cycle Time: Approx. 10 sec. per piece out
- Break Accuracy: +/- 0.5mm
- Max. Quantity of breaks: limited only by part and block size
Features and Benefits:
- Servo positioning and interpolation of the cutting head for programmable angles
- Flexibility and ease of programming automated break system
- Vacuum carriage is rotated by a servo axis
Parts are picked and placed onto the downstream shape cutter in position, eliminating the need for further squaring of the raw block, and reduceing maintenance - Full width belt is cleaned by brush in order to minimize scratches from chips
- The controls will normally be integrated into the same CNC controls as the shape cutting machine
