The new straight-line edger Elb 9 + 2 di ELETTROMECCANICA BOVONE S.r.l. responds to the needs of the reference markets - architecture, interior design, home appliances - in terms of quality, processing flexibility and high levels of productivity. The in-depth study on tools, carried out with the subsidiary BDT, has prompted the company to use and configure the grinding wheels in such a way as to make it possible to create grooves, flat edges and threads in a single pass.
The Elb 9 + 2 is capable of producing a complex profile on the edge of the glass in one pass without the need to process the glass on different machines or change setups. ELETTROMECCANICA BOVONE S.r.l. proposes Elb 9 + 2 both as a stand-alone edger and as an integral part of a BRS robotic line in which the handling of glass sheets takes place quickly, safely and with high precision.
ADVANTAGES OF TECHNOLOGY
Elb 9 + 2 speeds up the glass edge processing process and makes it more controllable, generating a standardized product that is constant in quality and tolerance, reducing costs and material handling: in this way craftsmanship is transformed into an industrial process.
PRODUCTION DETAILS
Depth and height of the groove are adjustable by operating in a range of 0,02 mm: a very fine and precise adjustment up to a maximum of 5 mm on both axes. The two threads are adjustable and can be excluded when you want to create the sharp angle groove, functional to the subsequent coupling between glass or between glass and other materials.
Elb 9 + 2 processes glass sheets or other materials - ceramic, artificial stone and natural stone - with a thickness ranging from 2 to 30 mm.
CONSTRUCTION DETAILS
The machine is in line with the construction requirements of Bovone excellence: the body is the same as the Elb12. Sturdy cast iron base and cutting-edge construction solutions are integrated with high-end electronics.
SPECIAL FEATURES
The machine is equipped with an external remote control for the movement on the X and Y axes of the two spindles relating to the grinding wheels dedicated to grooving and for the height compensation of those relating to the polishing wheels of the front and rear thread and of the flat edge: these automations help the operator.
Furthermore, the automatic adjustment of the polishing wheels, being more subject to wear, is functional to safeguarding the life cycle of the wheels themselves, for a significant saving in production costs, obviously keeping the quality and production standards of polishing unchanged.
