How to Choose the Right CNC Glass Cutting Machine for Your Workshop

When investing in a CNC glass cutting machine, it’s important to select equipment that matches your workshop’s production needs. First, consider the cutting accuracy and speed. CNC machines use computer numerical control to ensure precise cuts for both straight and shaped glass.

Next, evaluate the machine’s software compatibility, automation features, and table size to match the dimensions of your typical glass sheets. A high-quality CNC cutting machine should reduce waste, improve efficiency, and require minimal downtime.

For workshops aiming to scale production, automation features such as auto-loading and break-out functions are essential. You can explore more about our glass machinery solutions to find the right fit.

At LIJIANG Glass, we provide advanced CNC glass cutting machines designed to maximize productivity and accuracy, ensuring long-term performance for industrial use.

Glass Machine Maintenance Guide: Keep Your Equipment in Top Shape

A well-maintained glass machine is the foundation of efficient glass processing. Regular maintenance not only extends the lifespan of your equipment but also ensures consistent quality output. Start by performing daily cleaning to remove glass dust and debris, which can affect precision and safety.

Next, schedule periodic checks of mechanical components, such as cutting heads, polishing wheels, and conveyor systems. Proper lubrication of moving parts will reduce wear and tear. It’s also essential to update control software for CNC glass machines to maintain accuracy.

If you operate equipment such as a glass polishing machine or a CNC glass cutting machine, follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for inspections and part replacements.

At LIJIANG Glass, we not only provide reliable glass machinery but also long-term service support to keep your workshop running smoothly with minimal downtime.

Glass Tempering Furnace vs Other Glass Processing Machines – Which Do You Need?

Choosing between a glass tempering furnace and other processing machines depends on your production goals. A glass tempering furnace is designed to heat glass to a high temperature and then cool it rapidly, increasing strength and safety. This makes tempered glass ideal for architectural, automotive, and safety applications.

On the other hand, machines like CNC glass cutting machines or glass polishing machines are essential for shaping and finishing glass before tempering.

For businesses aiming to enter large-scale safety glass production, investing in a high-quality glass tempering furnace is the right choice.

At LIJIANG Glass, we provide complete glass machinery solutions to help manufacturers choose the right equipment for their specific needs.

Automatic Glass Cutting Loading Table

Basic Working Principle

It is mainly used for automatic glass loading. After putting the glass in the designated position and giving the signal of loading, the big arm turns up about 95 degrees through the overturning mechanism, and the whole machine starts to move forward. When the induction device on the small arm touches the glass, the whole machine stops walking and the glass is sucked by the suction cup through the vacuum system on the glass,small arm lifting motor lifts the glass upward and backward about 80 mm. The walking motor retreats and the big arm falls down. When the bring arm is in place, the suction cup under the glass begins to blow. When the small arm falls down, the glass falls on the conveyor wheel. Finally, the glass is conveyed to the cutting table by the conveyor wheel.

Detailed Working Steps

The whole working process can be accomplished by PLC automatic control or manual control. The manual mode is mainly suitable for equipment adjustment and maintenance.

Each action can be completed independently or can be used for normal work.After giving the loading signal (manual and automatic), the arm turns upward about 95 degrees through the overturning mechanism, and the whole machine starts to move forward.

When the induction device on the arm touches the glass, the whole machine stops walking.The vacuum system works, the glass is sucked by the sucker through vacuum systems. When the vacuum pressure reaches the set pressure, the vacuum pump stops. The sucker's telescopic connecting rod mechanism lifts the glass back and up 80 mm through the arm-lifting motor.

Stopping for about 1.5 seconds to make sure the glass is sucked up, the big arm driven by a motor to reverse the glass to the transmission roller. The suction cup under the glass begins to blow, and the telescopic connecting rod mechanism makes the suction cup and the glass fall at the same time.

When the glass falls on the conveyor roller, the small arm continues to fall, the glass is separated from the suction cup, and the conveyor starts to send the glass sheet to the front end of the loading machine and stop at the signal point.Then the whole frame moves automatically to find the zero position and stops.

Waiting for the signal from the cutting table, the glass can be sent to the cutting table at the same speed as the conveyor belt on the cutting machine. After the glass is sent out,automatically repeat the work cycle. The machine can select any position according to the required glass thickness.
