Vertical Straight Edgers Line

Such grinding line includes: 4 sets of glass vertical edgers and 3 sets glass transfer tables, and washing machine(as option only).

Such line is used for glass grinding four parallel straight-edges. Rough grinding, fine grinding, and polishing the bottom edge can be completed in one go. The device adopts variable frequency motor speed regulation for both transmission and turning-over.

The transfer table conveyor is divided into two stages. During the turning-over process, the later stage will stop conveying and output quickly after the glass turning over steady and smoothly.

The turning-over speed can be adjusted separately according to the glass specifications.

1. High-Precision Diamond Grinding Wheels

The production line is equipped with up to 9 to 12 sets of diamond grinding wheel sets (depending on the specific model), which can complete the rough grinding, fine grinding, chamfering and polishing processes in sequence. Among them:

The rough grinding wheel uses **#60~#100** diamond particles.

The fine grinding wheel uses **#150~#240**.

The polishing wheel is an imported resin or cerium oxide polishing wheel.

The speed of each grinding wheel is adjustable, with a maximum speed of 4200 RPM, ensuring that the glass edge is processed flat, without edge collapse or cracks. The entire edge grinding accuracy can be controlled within **±0.15mm, and the edge verticality reaches >89.5°**.

2. High-precision guide rail conveying system (Precision Conveyor Chain System)

The equipment uses a reinforced alloy steel chain + rubber clamp wheel transmission system, combined with a servo motor drive, to achieve high stability and high precision of the glass plate during the conveying process.

Conveying speed range: 0.5 ~ 6 m/min (adjustable frequency conversion).

Applicable glass size: minimum glass 80×80mm, maximum up to 3000×3000mm.

Processing thickness range: 3mm ~ 25mm.

Edge deviation control: ≤±0.1mm.

The surface of the guide rail is chrome-plated for wear resistance, and the wear resistance is increased by more than 3 times, and the service life can reach more than 5 years.

3. Automatic loading and unloading system

The whole line can be equipped with intelligent robotic arms or vacuum loading/unloading systems before and after, greatly improving the degree of automation. Through photoelectric sensor positioning + PLC control system, the position and size of the glass can be accurately detected, and continuous loading, processing, and unloading can be achieved without pause.

Loading speed: ≤8 seconds per piece of glass.

Can be connected to the intelligent three-dimensional storage system to achieve intelligent logistics linkage.

4. Intelligent control and process parameter management (PLC + Touchscreen HMI)

The whole line adopts advanced PLC programmable control system and touch human-machine interface (HMI), supports multiple operating languages (Chinese/English/Spanish), and can store 100+ sets of processing parameter settings.

Visual operation interface: real-time display of grinding wheel life, processing status, and alarm information.

One-key process call function: suitable for switching processing of multiple specifications of glass.

Remote fault diagnosis module: supports remote maintenance and upgrades.

5. Glass Washing & Drying Unit

After edge grinding, connect the multi-roller brush glass cleaning + hot air drying unit to quickly remove processing residues and water stains, ensure the cleanliness of the glass surface, and facilitate subsequent tempering or silk-screen printing processes.

Cleaning speed: 5~15m/min.

Drying temperature: adjustable, up to 80℃.

Water circulation filtration system: water-saving and environmentally friendly, filtration accuracy<5μm.
