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.

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.

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.

The LiSEC MLD is a manual loading and unloading station for mobile sorting buffers (MSB-A) that may be integrated directly During the loading process, the glass sheets are fed in automatically by way of a roller carrier situated underneath. As soon as
within a production line or used as a stand-alone machine. the roller carrier is lowered, the glass sheet is placed on the integrated glass transport rollers. When it comes to the automatic
unloading process, this sequence is performed in reverse -> the roller carrier lifts the glass sheets off the glass transport rollers
The loading/unloading station comprises a moveable roller wall that is guided on a rail on one side. If this roller wall is placed in

storage even of very large sheets is possible without operator intervention.
glass sheets are placed onto the loading station from the sorting buffer then they can be transferred to an insulating glass line or
onto a stationary roller wall manually. They may then be used for other processing steps from the stationary roller wall.
This system is particularly well-suited for quick and elective sorting of glass sheets.

ASM
Automatic sorting magazine
Glass sheets can be pre-sorted and stored intermediately in the automatic sorting magazine. Loading and unloading is performed
via a separately controlled transport beam in conjunction with a glass transport shuttle. The transport roller bar moves on guide
rails located below the magazine unit, positions itself exactly under the active storage slot, tilts the drive rollers towards the
transport level and starts to transport the sheet.
Sorting in the storage magazine is performed by production process software (optionally available from LiSEC) by optimising the
following criteria:
Number of free buffer slots
Shortest transport paths
Need-based request from production line

SHL-VH
Automatic glass transport shuttle with tilt function
The tilting shuttle can transport glass sheets both horizontally and vertically between processing stations.
The tiltable glass shuttle can cover the standard tilts of 2-6° and the full range up to 90° (horizontal). It uses the same rail system
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.
Highlights Software
Solution for limited space
Saving of the tilting table
Progressively adjustable horizontal and
vertical glass transport height

SHL
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.
Highlights Software
Best suitable for coated glass
Due to the declanation the coated surface will
never be touched during movement
Shortest 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.
Highlights Software
Maximum flexibility
Glass sheets can be freely positioned, depending on the
requirements of the subsequent tempering bed.
Parameterisable tempering bed restrictions
