GT-2
Self-cleaning 2-position glazing turret.
The
2-position glazing turrett is a device subordinated to a robotized
glazing unit.
Its made of two rotating plates that alternate inside
the glazing cabin:
- Internal plate: in this position the piece on the plate
will be glazed by the robot
- External plate: in this position the glazed piece on the
plate will be discharged by the robot and a new piece will
be loaded.
GAROLL
Self-cleaning system
Both plates are made of a porous material that allows the
washing of the glaze on it deposited during the glazing phase
by injecting counter-pressure air and water.
After discharging the glazed piece and before loading a new
piece that has to be glazed, a valve system, controlled by
an electric board, carries out an automatic washing cycle
switching between water rinsing and air cleaning in such a
way that the plate will be completely cleaned from glaze on
it deposited.
The porous part has a particular form that allows the loading
and discharging of the piece by means of a fork tool.
Advantages
of the 2-position system.
- The loading and discharging operations can be carried out
in the background of the glazing process, so that all idle
times are reduced.
- The plate washing is carried out externally of the cabin.
In this way, the risk of mixing the washing water with glaze
is excluded.
- Reduction in necessary installation area for the glazing
plant. This turret substitutes both the glazing carousel and
the external plate washing devices.
Internal components total protection. A gasket and protection
system shields all engines and mechanisms from glaze sprinkles.
