CORNER DUBBING

.

At the request of glass giant NSG, ASHTON INDUSTRIAL has developed an inline corner dubbing system which operates on the SEAMMAXX-PRO fully automatic arrissing /seaming equipment.

.

Unlike slower, precision processes like radius grinding, corner dubbing is a high speed process designed to improve yield, especially where thin glass is concerned.

.

Diamond belts are mounted on powered flipper arms which just touch the glass corners before flipping away automatically. Wear on the belts is compensated by height adjustment built in to the flipper heads. This blunts the sharpness created by seamed edges converging and leads to fewer breakages in the quench, and safer handling of the glass.

.

Processors of thick glass may find this a useful tool too, to minimise effects of excessive rake from the breakout process.
