Ensuring the quality and efficiency of insulating glass manufacturing is crucial in the construction industry.
LIJIANG Glass, a leading provider of insulating glass solutions, offers an automated process that streamlines the production of high-performance glass units. In this beginner’s guide, we’ll explore the eight key steps involved in the LIJIANG Glass insulating glass machine process.
1. Bending of Aluminum Spacers: The first step is to cut and bend the aluminum spacers into the desired shape and size, based on the glass processing requirements. This task is typically handled by automated bending equipment, which enhances production efficiency and reduces manual errors. Additionally, laser coding can be performed to identify the specific model, in accordance with the OA work order system.
2. Filling of Aluminum Spacers: Once the spacers are bent, they are filled with adsorbents, usually a 3A molecular sieve, to maintain the desired properties of the insulating glass unit.
3. Low-E Film Layer Detection: The LIJIANG Glass insulating glass machine is equipped with a Low-E Glass photoelectric detection switch in the feeding section, which ensures that the Low-E glass is properly oriented and does not get placed upside down.
4. Washing and Drying: The cut glass blocks undergo a thorough washing process to remove any dirt, grease, or impurities from the surface, preparing them for the next steps in the production process. This is typically done using an efficient washing and drying machine, which can handle large quantities of glass in a shorter timeframe.
5. Inspection: After the washing and drying stage, the glass blocks undergo a rigorous quality inspection. This includes manual visual observation to check for flatness, thickness, surface defects, and cleanliness, ensuring the glass meets the required standards.
6. Assembly: The glass blocks that pass the inspection are then sent to the insulating glass plate pressing segment for assembly. The insulating glass machine automatically places two or more pieces of glass at the appropriate interval and inflates them to create the insulating layer.
7. Sealing: To prevent any gas or air leakage in the insulated layer, the assembled glass undergoes a sealing process. This is typically done using high-efficiency sealants, such as hot melt sealant or structural sealant, applied by a fully automatic sealing robot line.
8. Final Inspection: The final step is to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the completed insulating glass unit. This may include checks on the glass appearance, sealing performance, and thermal properties to ensure the product meets all the necessary requirements.
By following these eight steps, the LIJIANG Glass insulating glass machine provides a seamless and efficient solution for the production of high-quality insulating glass units. LIJIANG Glass also offers comprehensive user manuals to guide customers through the entire process, ensuring a smooth and successful implementation of their automated glass solutions.
