  • automatic glass disposal of standard cutouts
  • suitable for the processing of laminated glass
  • water curtain for the protection of surrounding machine components
  • controlled capture of the abrasive sand
  • radiant energy is absorbed
  • specific water flow in separate tanks
  • high edge quality
  • seaming spindle for seaming / finishing

Technical data

  • Max. glass size: 3300 x 20000 mm
  • Min. glass size: 250 x 450 mm
  • Max. working speed: 15m/min
