Multifunctional Glass Shape Grinding Equipment for Polishing Various Shapes of Glass

Product Description

 

Single-Arm Special-Shaped Edging Machine

Product Description

The Single-Arm Special-Shaped Edging Machine (also known as a special-shaped or single-arm machine) is designed for precision grinding and polishing of various glass edges, including straight, rounded, duckbill, beveled, round, and oval shapes. Utilizing a vacuum suction system and advanced turntable technology, it efficiently processes irregularly shaped flat glass with high accuracy.

• Versatile Edge Processing: Grinds straight, rounded, duckbill, beveled, round, and oval glass edges with precision.

• Irregular Shape Capability: Processes specially shaped glass using a master mold on a single suction cup.

• Vacuum Suction System: Securely holds glass on the suction cup for stable processing.

• Flexible Rotation Mechanism: Features a motor-driven five-star disk or independent satellite turntable for rotation.

• Processing Range: Handles glass with rotation diameters of 700-2100 mm or 100-700 mm.

• Adjustable Rotation Speed: Allows real-time speed adjustment of the five-star plate during operation.

• Semi-Automatic Grinding: Uses a cylinder for efficient grinding of simple, special-shaped glass.

• Manual Grinding Flexibility: Supports coarse, fine grinding, and polishing with manual wheel replacement.

• Bevel Grinding Option: Employs a bowl-shaped grinding wheel with adjustable tilt for beveled edges.

• Enhanced Precision: Improved turntable accuracy ensures high-quality bevel grinding results.

• Brake System Innovation: Eliminates movement gaps, reducing vibration for smoother operation.

• Adjustable Load Control: Applies moderate, adjustable load during rotation for consistent performance.

• Durable Operation: Maintains gap-free action over extended periods, enhancing longevity.

• Improved Efficiency: Minimized vibration boosts work efficiency and superior edging results.

This machine is ideal for glass deep processing, offering reliability and versatility for custom glass shapes in industrial applications.

Product Parameters

 

Glass rotation diameter	Processing thickness	Bevel angle	Bevel grinding wheel	Voltage	Power	Outsize	Weight
100-2100mm	3-30mm	0°-20°	Ø150	380V 50HZ	3KW	1200*1200*1800mm	1000kg

Note: The type and quantity of equipment grinding heads can be adjusted according to customer needs, and the specific speed depends on the edging requirements and the thickness of the glass.

 

Overall performance requirements of glass profile edging machine

 

1. Transmission Mechanism: Operates accurately and reliably without noticeable vibration, impact, or sliding.

2. Vacuum Suction System: Maintains a working vacuum range of -0.05 to -0.1 MPa for secure glass adhesion.

3. Cooling and Air Pressure System: Remains free of blockages or leaks to ensure consistent operation.

4. Grinding Wheel Bearing Temperature: Maximum temperature at the grinding wheel bearing does not exceed 85°C.

5. Grinding Wheel Shaft Movement Accuracy: Horizontal runout limited to ≤0.03 mm for precise grinding. Vertical runout limited to ≤0.03 mm for consistent edging quality.
   
   These performance requirements ensure the machine delivers high-precision edging for special-shaped glass while maintaining operational stability and durability.

Precautions for Safe and Effective Use

• Maintain Suction Cup Consistency:

  • Suction cup height significantly impacts grinding quality.

  • Factory-calibrated suction cups are ground and fitted with uniform-thickness glue.

  • Avoid disassembling suction cups unless necessary.

  • Replace damaged suction cup glue with identical thickness to maintain consistency.

• Monitor Vacuum Pump Performance:

  • Vacuum degree may decrease over time due to water ingress or other issues.

  • Regularly inspect and troubleshoot the vacuum pump to ensure sufficient suction.

  • Insufficient suction can compromise grinding quality and pose safety risks.

• Ensure Proper Cooling and Maintenance:

  • Direct the universal water pipe nozzle at the grinding wheel to prevent dry grinding.

  • Regularly clean the machine to maintain performance and prevent buildup.

Operating the Special-Shaped Edging Machine

• Setup and Adjustment:

  • Select the appropriate grinding wheel based on the desired edge type (e.g., straight, round, duckbill, or beveled).

  • Adjust the grinding wheel's distance from the glass surface according to glass thickness.

  • Firmly press the grinding wheel against the glass for precise edging.

• Recommended Grinding Wheel Configurations:

  • Straight-Edge Glass: Use one 180-mesh diamond wheel and one BD polishing wheel.

  • Round Glass: Use one 180-mesh diamond wheel and one BD polishing wheel.

  • Duckbill Glass: Use one 100-mesh diamond wheel, one 240-mesh rough grinding diamond wheel, and one BD polishing wheel.

  • Beveled Edges (e.g., Mirrors): Use one 100-mesh diamond wheel, one 240-mesh rough grinding diamond wheel, one 3-color resin wheel, and one wool polishing wheel.
    By following these precautions and operating guidelines, users can achieve high-quality edging results while ensuring safety and machine longevity.

Maintenance of the machine
 

• Ensure Adequate Cooling Water: Maintain sufficient cooling water pressure during grinding to enhance efficiency. Proper cooling extends the service life of the grinding wheel.

• Prevent Motor Overload: If the machine's speed drops suddenly, reduce grinding pressure immediately. Avoid overloading to prevent motor damage and ensure longevity.

• Clean Glass Residues Daily: Remove all glass residues from the equipment after daily work. Rinse with water to clean; avoid direct hand contact with residues.

• Lubricate Regularly: Apply lubricant to the equipment every two weeks to ensure smooth operation.

• Protect Against Freezing: Drain cooling water from the water pipe daily in winter to prevent freezing damage.

• Monitor Vacuum Pump Oil: Keep vacuum pump oil at the specified level at all times for optimal performance.
  Regular adherence to these maintenance practices ensures the machine's reliability, safety, and high-quality glass edging results.
