THE PHILOSOPHYWith the aim of meeting all production needs, the BS cutting tables allow also fitting the cutting carriage with one of the various accessories available:- EASY DELETION: Low-E removal system with baffle grinding wheel;- LMT: High performing Low-E removal system with peripheral grinding wheel;- PPL: Label printing and positioning system;- LAM SHAPE: Cutting system of laminated glass sheet to shape.

1110

Cutting, breakout and detachment system for the production of small batches of laminated glass to shape within a normal float glass production.

The innovative system patented by Bottero optimises the radiant power without overheating the glass and allows performing the final glass detachment operation without the use of other tools.The total coverage of the area being processed avoids flash leak-age, thus ensuring maximum safety for the operators.

The automatic labelling system is the best solution to obtain the glass traceability and consequently the more efficient organisation tool of the subsequent processes within the company.

The labelling system fitted on the BCS cutting tables allows per-forming the labelling cycle and cutting cycle simultaneously, with total flexibility on the label position and on the printed text, ensur-ing a significant reduction of the machine cycle times.

Surface removal system on Low-E glass with 200 mm peripheral wheel and maximum working speed of 160 m/min, is the ideal solution for large productions of low-emissivity glass.

The approach stroke of the grinding wheel and its path are also optimised for cut to shape, allowing to speed up the machine cy-cle time, also thanks to the automatic measurement system of the grinding wheel consumption.You can install grinding wheels with different thicknesses for dif-ferent production needs, and the wheel is also able to remove any protective films (TPF).The total coverage of the area being processed and the presence of the vacuum cleaner cancel the dispersion of dust in the environ-ment, thus ensuring maximum safety for the operators.

Surface removal system on Low-E glass with 20 mm baffle grinding wheel and maximum working speed of 80 m/min, is the ideal solu-tion for occasional productions of low-emissivity glass.

The approach stroke of the grinding wheel is managed via pro-portional valve and its path is also optimised for cut to shape, thus allowing to speed up the machine cycle time.The total coverage of the area being processed and the presence of the vacuum cleaner cancel the dispersion of dust in the environ-ment, thus ensuring maximum safety for the operators.

Sheet conveyor system with suction cups or lugs, driven by non-self-maintained push-buttons, to ensure operator and process safety, it allows handling the sheet on the breakout table without any effort.

Thanks to this function, you can also cut a scheme on both sides of a laminated glass.The cycle can also be performed with schemes containing very complex shapes.In the presence of the Lam Shape option, in addition to the cut, the BCS can also breakout and separate the PVB.

Squaring of electronic search sheet as well as significantly speed-up the machine cycle time allows the operator to position the glass without having to square it on mechanical references. The system also allows measuring with decimal precision the glass to be cut and it can be used on the automatic lines to check the integrity of the sheet.

The shape scanner or the electronic detection and digitisation system of the templates allows maximum flexibility of production. It can detect various materials, from glass to paper, and it can detect up to 20 tem-plates simultaneously. The software integrated with the option allows modifying the acquired profiles in a few steps and correct any tem-plate imperfections.
