Camera Squaring
An array of specialty back-lit, high resolution cameras determine the exact location of each
and every rectangular lite staged beneath the CNC bridge applicator. This allows the conveyor
system to stop a lite, to which Dura Platform Spacers are to be applied, and instantly adjust
the trace origin and rotational axis to begin application. Camera squaring enables TAPE 1500
to shave seconds off of each application cycle’s trace by eliminating this significant portion of
squaring time. The benefit is spacer application is square to the glass and not dependent on
operator “feel”. The camera arrays apply to both sides of the horizontal, parallel processing
system, giving great flexibility to operational protocols.
TAPE 1500 - Precision Accuracy
The Motion Control System that directs the grinding of the Hubble mirrors allowing it to see the
farthest regions of the universe is the same system that directs TAPE 1500 to precisely apply
Dura Platform spacers onto each and every IG unit it fabricates. TAPE 1500 relies on a
DELTA TAU UMAC controller with up to 32 axis of motion control and nano technology precision.
TAPE 1500 is the next generation of automated horizontal IG fabrication equipment bringing space
age accuracy and technology to your plant floor. Once you see TAPE 1500 operating, you will agree
that there is no other system like it when it comes to precision accuracy.
