VSL-A Double Bridge System Solutions
High-performance machine for cutting laminated safety glass automatically

This is based on an automatic glass storage facility in combination with a system for edge deletion or removal of the LSG film
overhang, and a VSL-A type of laminated glass cutting bridge with conveyor belts. Then, depending on the production quantity and
variety, users can choose between two system solutions.
Example: Customer “Type A” has a high number of variants in its product mix (many X, Y and Z cuts). Here, with an additional
VSL-A system after the first laminated glass cutting bridge, it is possible to produce up to 75 sheets an hour in fully automatic
mode.
Optimum and dynamic utilisation of both VSL-A cutting bridges is assured by the intelligent ‘Dynamic Load Balancing’ (DLB)
system. Moreover, this system solution features various operating modes between which the operator can switch at any time:
Output or comfort mode. When comfort mode is selected, the system continuously produces fully cut glass lites sheets with
almost no human intervention. In output mode, additional production capacity can be made available. Here, the operator assists
the system, especially in separating off-cuts at the second cutting bridge, which makes for higher output, a particular advantage
during production peaks.
Example: Customer ‘Type B’ produces a large number of identical products and is involved in volume production, (many X and
Y cuts with identical dimensions). With a tandem VSL-A system design (cutting two glass sheets simultaneously), it is possible
to process a quantity of up to 140 sheets per hour. In tandem mode, it is possible to cut two glass sheets simultaneously on the
second VSL-A in fully automatic mode. This system solution achieves the highest possible output numbers and represents the
fastest LSG cutting system on the market.

EDGE QUALITY
LiSEC glass cutting systems ensure continuously high edge quality and strength.
Precise cutting without noticeable surface damage reduces splintering and prevents
top and bottom breaks. This provides the basis for cost-efficient edge processing.

Float Glass Breakout Systems
Machines for Automatic Cutting and Breaking of Float Glass

The automatic float glass breakout systems consist of an automatic glass storage unit combined with a downstream float glass
cutting table for Low-E edge deletion and for scoring the float glass sheets. Depending on the volume of production and the variety
of products, it is possible to choose between three different variants:
Example: Customer “Type A” would like to break X sub-plates and X edge sections automatically. With an automatic ARS edge
deletion station and a TBX breakout station the operator can be supported to an optimum standard. Output increases.
Example: Customer “Type B” would like to break X and Y sub-plates as well as X and Y edge sections automatically. With an ARS
edge deletion station, a TBX breakout station, a TDV rotary table and another TBR/TCY breakout station, it is only necessary to
break Z sections manually. This system is already highly automated and achieves high output levels.
Example: Customer “Type C” would like to break X, Y and Z sub-plates as well as X, Y and Z edge sections automatically. With an
ARS edge deletion station, a TBX breakout station, a TDV rotary table, a TBR/TCY breakout station and an SDV sheet turning unit,
virtually unmanned and continuous production of float glass is possible at high levels of output.
With a well thought out system arrangement, the number of crates of broken glass pieces is reduced and this has a positive
impact on system availability.
The optional automatic sheet disposal system maximises system availability.

base CUT
System for the automatic cutting of float glass and simple surface coatings

The compact base CUT glass cutting machine is ideally suited for cutting straight lines and shapes out of flat glass. Its design
ensures maximum precision and minimum cutting tolerances, as well as a long service life of the machine. In the machine‘s basic
model, loading is carried out manually through ‚free fall‘. After loading, the glass can be manually positioned against the reference
marks. When the operator initiates cutting, the machine automatically detects the glass sheet‘s position in X and Y direction. The
stock plate is positioned manually. This assures precise cutting of sheets of glass.

MSB
Mobile sorting buffer for automatic and manual loading of glass sheets

The mobile sorting buffer (MSB) is an integral part of in-house logistics solutions and can be used in a highly flexible manner.
Depending on the selected design, the buffer is in a class of its own when it comes to loading and unloading glass sheets
manually or automatically.
In automatic operation, the glass sheets are fed in on roller carriers arranged below the MSB and then put on the glass support
bars integrated in the mobile sorting buffer as soon as the roller carrier lowers. In this way, temporary storage even of very large
sheets is possible without operator intervention.
There is also the option of replacing the glass support bars with glass transport rollers, which enables manual loading and
unloading.

as the standard shuttle and can therefore accelerate highly dynamically at a speed of up to 300 m/min and 3 m/s². The LiSEC
tilting shuttle combines the functions of a tilting table with those of a shuttle. Horizontal and vertical glass transport lines each
with different transport heights and tilts can be operated with one shuttle.

Glass Transport Shuttle

The glass transport shuttle type SHL will be used for loading and unloading of IG-lines, glass processing machinery or buffer
systems like the Lisec ASM. The glass is transported on to the shuttle vertical and automatically determining the number of lites
loaded onto the shuttle.
The combination of high-performance roller guides and helically toothed racks minimizes driving resistance and maximizes
stability, allowing an acceleration of up to 3 m/s² and transport speeds of up to 5 m/s (300 m/min). Additionally, the back wall of
the transport is strongly inclined. As a result, the transport of the sheets in the shuttle can proceed contact-free, further improving
the cycle time.

RHH
Robot handling system for tempering bed loading and unloading

The stationary sorting runs automatically using the robot handling system for tempering bed loading and unloading.
GPS.autofab calculates the necessary glass sheets for the tempering oven batch. These are then transported in the specified
sequence from the sorting onto the horizontal transport section (BTA) in front of the tempering oven. The sheet stops at the end
of the BTA: Size, weight, number of suction cups, start and end coordinates, and the placement mode are transmitted to the robot,
and the required suction cups are activated. These can be activated individually to facilitate adjustment to the required contour
and processing (cut-outs, drilling, etc.). The robot then picks up the glass sheet for „Pick and Place“ or for „Drag and Drop“ mode. In
case of the “Pick and Place“ function, small sheets are lifted into the specified position. On the other hand, large sheets are pushed
into the specified position via the air cushion using the “Drag and Drop“ function. The glass sheet is rotated or offset laterally if
necessary, and subsequently moved into the position specified by the GPS.autofab.

Overview of the Running Production


The sales department benefits from the capacity planning due to real-time information about achievable delivery dates. This
is possible thanks to a comprehensive overview of the production process, even in areas where numerous production stages
and material routes would make it complicated. Orders are planned with precision regarding schedule and machine-specific
requirements.

Machine Load and Bottleneck Warning


prod reports the production progress to the plant management and the sales department in real time. The information tool
provides an up-to-date status of the machine utilisation and individual orders. An invaluable advantage for a precisely planned
utilisation of the production capacity or short-notice re-scheduling.

Packing Optimisation
Overview of the Running Production prod makes it possible to produce glass sheets in optimised packaging sequence and directly onto the delivery racks. This makes
time-consuming searching, commissioning and re-packing redundant. The results are reduced order cycle times, reduced costs in
the shipping department and fewer glass damages during transport.

analytics
Online service for the visualisation and analysis of production data

With the help of Analytics, it is possible to gain a precise insight into production, identify potential scope for improvement and
derive appropriate measures. Analytics makes data from production available in an appropriate format and facilitates analysis.
Key figures such as overall equipment effectiveness (or OEE) are automatically calculated for both machines and lines and on the
basis of the shift schedule.

Highlights Functions

Visualisation of output key figures per machine


Based on the configurable shift plan, the respective output can be compared over several days and even on an hourly basis in
order to derive appropriate measures.

Calculation of OEE for machines and lines


By combining several machines into lines, the OEE figure can be calculated not only for individual machines but also for entire
lines.

OEE dashboard
Analysis of the causes of problems (alarms, product mix, availability, ...)
If the output does not meet expectations, the causes can be found by analysing alarms that have occurred, the product mix or the
reasons behind individual stoppages in more detail.

autofab
Solution for Automatic Sorting Systems

autofab is the heart of the automatic sorting and/or buffering solution. This solution allows online control of a completely
automated glass production process. The system automatically connects to all machines, controls, regulates and supervises
the production processes, and reports the current status of e.g. the sorting systems, etc. With the system it is even possible
to separate cutting from production sequence. This way, glass waste is minimised and is guaranteed an optimum production
sequence on an insulating glass line, a furnace, etc.

 Support of buffer resorting
Sheets are automatically optimised into a toughening bed, taking the furnace criteria into consideration. The furnace is
automatically supplied with the sheets and the recipe data. After the tempering process the scanner and ripple data are
automatically evaluated. Depending on the next processing step (delivery/IG), the individual sheets are automatically transported
from the toughening bed to the correct position. Diverse tempering furnaces and scanning systems can be integrated.

Loading Display
The loading display supports the operator loads the sheets onto the transport into the sorting system. The loading display shows
all relevant information to load the sheets in the sorting system specified sequence, with the correct base edge and glass side.

Traceability over the Whole Production Sequence


The fully automated glass production records every glass sheet. Each production step can be retraced.

Optimum Space Utilisation


The function „Chaotic Sorting“ allows an optimum use of the harp cars. With fully automatic control the production becomes more
efficient and economical.
