Low "E" Edge Deleter
The use of soft coating
Low E Glass is rapidly increasing due to the improved energy efficiency it
provides in the performance of Insulated Units. When using soft coated Low E glass, the Low
E coating must be stripped from the glass edge in order for the sealing
adhesive to bond to the glass. Perfect
Technology offers a low cost Edge Deletion Machine to accomplish this stripping
operation very rapidly. The below photograph
illustrates this machine.

The operation of this
machine is as follows:
-
Operator loads a glass lite on the
ball caster table with the Low E Coated side up. Operator positions the lite against the
guide rollers on the left side of the edge deletion table. With the glass lite against the guide
rollers the operator pushes the lite left so that the glass edge passes through and under the fiber
edge deletion wheel.
-
The edge deletion device is a fiber abrasive wheel powered by a 3/4 HP motor turning at a speed of 3450 rpm. As the glass sheeting is pushed under the
deletion wheel the low
E coating is abraded off.
The mount for the deletion drive motor is adjustable so that the motor can be
lowered as the abrasive wheel wears. Drive
motor operates on 115 volt power.
-
The operator rotates the glass lite
90 degrees and repeats steps 1 through 3 to delete the coating from each edge of the glass
lite. The
Machine has the following construction features:
-
Table Top Frame and Frame Base is fabricated
from 2" x 2" heavy wall tubular steel. Ball Casters are mounted onto the top
frame. The casters are 2"
diameter neoprene spherical balls will not scratch the glass. Construction of the Edge Deletion Machine is
all MIG welded. Standard Stock Size is 60" x 80'.
-
Ball Caster Table Top has ball casters mounted on
6" centers. Ball Caster Table Top
has 20" x 22" cutout for operator access when edge deleting smaller
sized lites.
-
Table is shipped knocked down and
folded up to reduced freight expense and to allow for
easy transport, movement and storage in the factory. Requires minor assembly.
