The glass pane gluing station GVM114 has been designed as the entry into the manufacture of glued elements and optimized for the application of two-component adhesives. To meet the customer’s manufacturing requirements the gluing station is capable of gluing sashes or complete window structures made of plastics, aluminium or wood. The gluing nozzle is manually guided so that the adhesive can be applied into the glazing rebate or the casement overlap.
The specially designed LEMUTH DynaFlow metering station is the main part of the gluing station. Like the industrial PC, the metering station is mounted on a base frame. The adhesive delivered by pumps is transported by the barrel pumps to the metering station, where the pressure of the adhesive is reduced by pressure reducers and where afterwards the optimum mixing ratio of both components is adjusted by gear pumps that are driven by servomotors. By reducing the pressure of the adhesive upstream of the gear pumps, the operation of the gear pumps is almost wear-free. Both components are then transported in an optimum ratio to the application nozzle where they are mixed.
A Beckhoff industrial PC is used for the control of the metering station. This PC controls all parameters of adhesive metering and can also be used as a monitoring unit. All process-relevant parameters are monitored and recorded. This allows all parameters of a glued element to be checked later and at any time. The control is programmed with Windows XP. Remote maintenance of the systems is possible via the Internet.
