Flat Suction Cup for Float Glass Stacking Line

Revolutionizing Glass Stacking: EUROTECH’s VS-NO Series for Cold End Operations

In the intricate landscape of flat glass production’s cold end, precision and efficiency take center stage. EUROTECH proudly presents its VS-NO series of flat suction cups, available in 130mm and 200mm variants, meticulously crafted for glass stacking machines. This series plays a pivotal role in enhancing the stacking process, ensuring a flawless and scratch-free outcome.

Navigating the Cold End: Float Glass Stacking in Production

In the intricate dance of float glass production, the cold end represents a critical phase where precision and efficiency converge. Float glass, known for its pristine surfaces and consistent thickness, undergoes a meticulous process during the cold end, and stacking plays a pivotal role in this stage.

Sorting and Precision Stacking

Float glass sheets move through a carefully orchestrated sorting process before reaching the stacking phase. The sheets, emerging from the tin bath with uniform thickness, undergo inspection for quality assurance. Once sorted, precision stacking becomes paramount to preserve the glass’s flawless characteristics.

Smart Conveying and Stacking System

The cold end necessitates an intelligent conveying system to facilitate the smooth transition of float glass sheets to their designated stacking points. This sophisticated system, frequently incorporating robotic technologies, enables the efficient movement of glass sheets while minimizing handling marks. The development of such a smart system ensures that both conveying and stacking processes are executed with utmost precision. The optimal configuration of stackers operating at maximum capacity becomes crucial for delivering results that are precise, accurate, and free from scratches.

EUROTECH Flat Suction Cup Solution for Float Glass Stacking

The effectiveness of the glass stacking process relies on a robust sorting system. As a leading second source, EUROTECH introduces an innovative smart system designed to elevate the standards of conveying and stacking in the glass industry. The key to success lies in deploying the optimal number of stackers at maximum capacity, ensuring highly accurate and scratch-free results.

The bespoke VS-NO series provides a tailored solution for handling glass sheets, allowing for their removal by hand or through fully automatic stackers. These suction cups, available in diameters of 130 mm and 200 mm, accommodate a range of glass sheet sizes, from small to extra-extra-large, weighing up to 3 tons. The sheets can be expertly removed from either the tin or air side, at various levels such as tiers and drops, with options for static or on-the-fly picking. The series includes single or dual pick options, ensuring enhanced operational efficiency.

This specialized suction cup seal, known as the BSP series VS-NO, finds frequent application in automatic stacking systems within the glass industry. The robust and substantial seal, crafted from NBR white at approximately 60 Shore, is particularly suitable for smooth glass plates. Notably, plate-separating powder such as Lucite does not adhere to the plane rubber surface; instead, it adheres between the naps and can be easily cleaned with compressed air. The base plate and suspension can be customized according to customer specifications, allowing for a quick and cost-saving seal replacement. The suction plate is specifically designed for smooth surfaces, featuring a diameter of 130 mm and 200 mm, a sealing lip, burled rubber support, and a replaceable seal held on the base plate by internal stress. The aluminum base plate comes with an A-P suspension, and the central vacuum feed is facilitated through the suspension bolt, available in various sizes.

Large Variety of Vacuum Suction Cups for Handling Equipment

EUROTECH Vacuum Technologies stands as a prominent figure in the vacuum handling and systems industry, specializing in the manufacturing of vacuum components and suction cups tailored for applications in glass, wood, and sheet metal processing industries. Our product range is meticulously crafted to enhance productivity and efficiency across diverse production machines and assembly lines.
