Complete 7-Section Automatic Insulating Glass Line

The automatic vertical insulating glass processing line adopts a rational and compact layout with 7 fully integrated sections, ensuring smooth glass flow and high production efficiency:

Loading section
Washing and drying section
Discharge section
Inspection and spacer frame installation section
Transfer & thickness measuring section
Pressing & argon gas filling section
Unloading section

This modular design allows stable operation, easy maintenance, and future function expansion.

Advanced Control System & Intelligent Performance

The entire line is controlled by a Germany Siemens PLC system with a user-friendly touch screen interface, providing reliable operation and strong scalability.

Key Performance Advantages

Automatic identification of coated glass and Low-E glass
Online and offline washing for Low-E glass
Intelligent intermittent working mode for energy saving
Online display of washing speed and operating status
Aviation plug connection design for fast installation and commissioning

These features significantly reduce human error while improving overall production stability.

01 Loading Section – Accurate Low-E Glass Detection

To protect valuable Low-E coatings, the loading section adopts point-contact Low-E glass film detection technology.

Key Advantages

Automatically alarms when Low-E glass is placed incorrectly
High recognition rate even for high-transparency Low-E glass
Effectively prevents coating scratches and quality defects

The glass conveyor is mounted on an 8 mm milled flat steel plate, ensuring high load-bearing capacity. Adjustable bearing block height allows smooth conveying of both small and large glass sizes.

02 Washing and Drying Section – Clean, Stable, and Low-Noise

Washing Unit Advantages

304 stainless steel washing box for corrosion resistance
3 pairs of soft brushes (0.12 mm hair) specially designed for Low-E glass
Automatic glass thickness measurement (over 8 mm)
Three independent washing sections for triple washing
Automatic water temperature control and replenishment system
Accurate washing speed display (2–10 m/min)
Thrust bearings and noise-reduction structure for long-term stability

Drying Unit Advantages

Automatic adjustment of air knife opening based on glass thickness
Mechanical adjustment structure with high stability
Continuous washing of different glass thicknesses without stopping

This design is especially suitable for laminated insulating glass production.

03 Discharge Section – Flexible Conveying Options

The discharge section supports:

Roller conveyor (standard)
Air-floating conveyor (optional)

This flexibility reduces glass surface contact and improves handling safety.

04 Inspection & Spacer Frame Installation Section

This section ensures accurate spacer positioning and easy inspection:

Advanced screw adjustment structure for high aluminum frame positioning accuracy
Lightweight aluminum alloy guide rail, automatically adjusted according to glass height
Hollow structure design with rear maintenance door for easy cleaning
Automatic lifting inspection backplane (optional)

These features improve assembly precision and simplify daily maintenance.

05 Transfer Section – Thickness Measuring for Gas Filling

The transfer section integrates thickness measurement, preparing precise data for the pressing and argon gas filling process, ensuring consistency for different IG unit sizes.

06 Pressing & Argon Gas Filling Section – High Precision & High Efficiency

Pressing Machine Advantages

Servo motor synchronous belt system for ultra-high pressing precision
Lead screw pressing structure for stable force transmission
Adjustable pressing board structure for long service life
Automatic pressing according to glass thickness and spacer width
Capable of producing large-size and thick insulating glass units

Online Argon Gas Filling (Optional)

The system offers high-efficiency online argon gas filling with intelligent control:

Automatic positioning of gas filling holes according to glass size
Partition control of the gas filling beam to save argon gas
Real-time display of the entire filling process on the touch screen
Adjustable filling modes: time mode, volume calculation mode, argon content detection mode
Automatic stop when gas concentration exceeds 90%
Filling time: 3–5 seconds for 1×1 m IG units

The system is especially advantageous for wide spacers, triple glazing, residential windows, and doors.

The line also supports future upgrades such as TPS system, 4SG, and Super Spacer integration.

07 Unloading Section – Safe and Efficient Output

The unloading section ensures smooth glass removal, with an optional tilting table to improve handling efficiency and operator safety.

Technical Specifications Overview

Max glass size: 3000 × 6000 mm
Min glass size: 280 × 450 mm
Glass thickness: 3–30 mm (optional)
Insulating glass thickness: up to 80 mm
Washing speed: 2–10 m/min
Conveyor speed: 45 m/min

High-Quality Electrical Components for Long-Term Reliability
