• Operator guidance by coloured signal-lights

Assembling, gas filling and pressing

Automatic assembling, gas filling and pressing of up to 3-sided stepped double or triple insulating glass units in rectangular or shaped formats

• Processing of various dimensions and spacer widths in any sequence

Optional

Automatic assembling and pressing of up to 4-sided stepped double or triple insulating glass units.

With the B’SPEED, the work steps are ideally designed for the production of triple and quadruple units and allow the quickest possible cycle times. As a result, the B’SPEED is able to produce triple insulating glass in the same time it takes other lines to produce double units.

Three production steps are decisive regarding quick production of triple insulating glass units:

Application of the spacers

The application of the spacers is performed by two tps’applicator components arranged one after the other. In order to achieve the maximum throughput, the thermoplastic TPS® warm edge spacers are applied to the second and third glass plates of the triple insulating glass units almost simultaneously. This ensures the continuous and quick supply of glass plates with spacers.

Gas-filling of the spaces between the lites

Innovative assembly robot for quick filling and pressing of the units for triple insulating glass production: The speed’assembler is the first unit to simultaneously fill both spaces between the lites with inert gas for triple units. This is beneficial to the cycle time as it reduces the filling time for each unit by half.

Sealing the units

The speed’sealer enables quick and flexible sealing of triple insulating units in two cycles. The dynamic mixer provides a maximum flow rate and so consequently, the highest application speed. This ensures that no equipping times occur to exchange nozzles when producing units with alternating or asymmetric spaces between the lites.

The thermoplastic spacer TPS® is applied directly onto the glass by machine from a single drum as part of the insulating glass production. The width of the spacer can be changed as desired during operation without any time loss. Separate production processes for the sawing, bending, connecting, desiccant filling and butylation are no longer needed, saving both time and money.

• Eliminates the need to stock different spacer profiles and connectors
• Suitable spacer is always available
• No offcut, no dirt, no waste
• Production mix manufacture on a single line
• Removes the need to split orders into standards and specials

The flexible spacer is applied directly on to the vertical glass plate. The dynamic drive guarantees an extremely high level of accuracy during this process.

• Synchronisation of the frame production with the insulating production process
• Production sequence of rectangular or shaped formats as desired
• Non-contact transportation of the glass plates via air cushion support walls

flexspacer’twinapplicator

The flexspacer’twinapplicator twin applicator for the non-interrupted production of insulating glass units with different spacer widths

flexspacer’applicator

The flexspacer’applicator with storage for four spacer material reels and integrated air drying for the quick change of reels, even during operation

cornersealer

The cornersealer for the secure sealing of corners via fixing with tape strips as well as additional butyl sealing

Butyl application

Processing of T-spacers, FGS (Flexible Glass Spacer) and other spacers via the application of polyisobutylenes on the edge of the spacer on both sides

In combination with the spacerbenderCOMBI frame bending robot, conventional aluminium, stainless steel or plastic spacers can be processed on the B’VARIO.

• Premium component quality
• Long service life
• Line can be expanded with a multitude of options

The modular design of the vertical first’arris arrissing machine enables wide application in the fields of tempered glass, laminated glass and insulating glass production. It can be utilised as a stand-alone machine or as an integrated component in an insulating glass production line.

• Automatic arrissing of rectangular and shapes with straight edges
• Autarchic solution, no data input necessary
• No contact of coated low-E glass
• Excellent arrissing quality due to grinding wheels
• Integrated rinsing zone

Bystronic glass handling systems ensure easy and safe transport. They allow a flexible and economic use in every flat glass and plate processing branch of industry. The remarkable features of our tried, proven and innovative technology are not only reliable and of the highest quality, but also have the following clear advantages:

• Careful handling of load
• Minimized effort
• Fast, timesaving operation
• Advantageous cost reduction

The automatic sash’line production line for window sashes makes a separate insulating glass production unnecessary: it simplifies the production process by gluing the glass plates directly into the window sashes and sealing the unit gas-tight.

• Variable production sequence of rectangular window sashes
• Washing and inspecting the glass plates is integrated into production
• Precise application of sealing material including desiccant
• Assembly, gas filling and pressing of the complete window sash in a single work step
• Modular platform of the line enables adaptation to individual customer needs

The champ’speed enables the quick and precise cutting, breaking, grinding and drilling of automotive glass. The special feature of the champ’speed 2in1 version is its outstanding flexibility with regard to the premium edge break: It is the first machine in the world that can break glass with or without a template.
