5 Spindle Glass Edger - Model SM5C

We installed a 5 spindle cup wheel glass edger last week in Utah. Since this location was only a 8 hour drive from us, we took a nice road trip up and got this installed for them.
The SM5C Vertical Edger produces a highly polished flat and seam edge. The 5 cup wheels grind, seam and polish the glass as it runs through the machine. The 2 polish wheels ensure a smooth, high quality finish. The last wheel is a cerium impregnated wheel that gives the glass a clear polished finish. The conveyor speed is variable from 1.6 fpm to 9.8 fpm (0.50 to 3.0 mpm) and the machine has a large glass rack with the capacity to handle a 550 lb. (250 kg) piece of glass up to 100’’ x 63’’ tall. Thickness of glass can range from 1/8’’ to ½'’ (3mm-12mm) and requires that only the front arris wheel positions be changed for different thicknesses. Spindles have position indicators to make re-setting wheel positions easy. Glass pieces can be as small as 4’’x 4’’ (100mm x 100mm). Compressed air is not required because all functions of the machine are set manually. Ammeters for each motor are mounted on the control panel with individual and main motor controls.
