Processing heads
The Seaming (arrissing) Machine Art. JORI glass machine is equipped with two operating heads, working in tandem to achieve unbeatable cycle times. This configuration increases output significantly by working flexibly between one or two panes simultaneously.
Suction cups To improve output and stability the glass piece is moved via independently controlled suction cups, which positions themselves automatically based on the size of the item being processed. This innovative twin carriage design allows for the glass piece to be transferred between the operating heads without interruption.
Enhanced Stability Both operating heads are equipped with a patented fastening system, designed to hold the glass piece still at the point of application. This feature consists of two opposing self-adjusting wheels that position the glass centrally to the tools while removing and vibration or deflection. This system is especially useful when the glass pane is not perfectly flat.
Predictive Feeler A patented system that constantly maps the edge of the glass during the seaming (arrissing) process, the forward feeler instantaneously communicates position to the following heads, guiding them into the correct position.
Self-Learning A series of sensors measure the height, length and thickness of the individual pane, enabling the machine to process variable glass pieces without any parameter.
Diamond wheels The Art. JORI glass machine seaming (arrissing) machine is supplied with two spindles that are used to mount the V-shaped diamond wheels onto both operating heads.
