See a XY Laser-Cutter 
in Operation at the 
Grenzebach Booth 15D49!

At the Grenzebach Booth on the Glasstec 2006 in Duesseldorf, you will experience an allready 
practice proven Offline Laser Cutting device. 

This equipment is a loan from our customer, 
the door+window maker 'perfecta-fenster', 
they use this machine to cut borsilicate glass 
casing elements, up to a length of 4000 mm.

At the Glasstec, every 30 minutes, Grenzebach will give a presentation. This will show XY-laser-cutting of soda-lime flat glass, and demonstrate the superior edge quality and outstanding breaking resistance of this laser cut glass.

You can see and feel the laser cut edge, free of oil and chips, waveless plain. Because there are no microcracks in the edge, a bouncing ball or shower of hail, or thermal stress from the sun or other load will not break the laser cut window so fast. You can experience also this at our booth!

You can discuss performance, price and delivery time
of a YX cutting device for all sizes of flas glass,
for soda lime glass as well as for borosilicate,
thickness 1 mm up to 25 mm.

For more in-advance-information, please contact 
your responsible Grenzebach sales engineer or wolfgang.friedl@grenzebach.com

See a Lasertrimmer in Operation at the German E-Glass Floatline!

On Monday October 23, just one day before the Glasstec 2006, you will have the possibility to visit the new German E-Glass Float Line and see the On-Line Lasertrimmer in operation, trimming the edges off the float ribbon.

You can drive by yourself to the float site near the city of Magdeburg, or you can use the Grenzebach - Bus departure at Duesseldorf, to witness the one-fully-day-event.

You can see there the easy-to-set float ribbon laser cutting, which is not influenced from any stress-problem, and where all glass thickness is easy to break on the automatic edge trimm deck, and where ifen extreme change of glass thickness is no matter of cutting loss any more.

You can discuss performance, price and delivery time of a float line X and Y laser cutting device for all thickness from 1 mm up to 25 mm.

If you are working in any float line, or if you are responsible for a float line anywhere in the world, and if you are interested to experience this unique on site presentation about the new trend setting laser cutting technology, 
please contact your responsible Grenzebach sales engineer or wolfgang.friedl@grenzebach.com

Laser Cut for easier Processing and for higher Breaking Strength of the final Planes

Wolfgang Friedl, Grenzebach Maschinenbau GmbH +
Grenzebach Shanghai / Chinese Speaker

A new technology summits to be an essential novelty for many glass users: Glass is fit now for new purposes not to image today. Same firmness is reached now with less glass thickness and weight!

This new technology facilitates very fast online Laser cutting of all glass thickness.
While all other existing laser technologies are limited to cut thin glass only, or they are extremely slow, this new cutting technology is the breakthrough for float ribbon cutting as well as for offline cutting tables in building- and automotive glass production lines.

Already existing / available 
Grenzebach laser cutting systems:

• Float Ribbon longitudinal (new and retrofit)
• Offline XYZ Cut

Under Development + Test:

• Float Ribbon Cross Cut
• Cutting of tempered Glass
• Vacuum Isolating Glass 'VIG', see www.vig-info.de

Lab Status:

• Offline Shape Cut
• Automotive Glass Cut
• Cutting of laminated Glass

The laser cutting technology opens 
a new era of flat glass quality:

• Precise, accurate, perpendicular edge.
• No micro cracks, fragmentation, chips, cutting oil: less scratches, clean glass.
• Easy cutting + snapping in any strain-, stress-, tension-, thickness-condition.
• Automatic setting, over all thickness.
• Cutting close to the edge.
• Score/scribe now and snap later.
• No grinding nor washing required before tempering or bending.
• Multiple higher breaking resistance: Less breakage (handling, processing), more stability of the final product.

This is the mayor advantage of the new technology: 
we started laser cutting for reaching a better and reliable glass edge. But the result does not only lead to a better edge quality, but also the quality of the complete final glass panel will be much higher!

A new technology has been started to be used now. The time is over now, to continue an antiquarian glass cutting wheel method, where the glass edges are injured in a way that the firmness of the final sheet is reduced to a third of its basic potential – even we had to attune to so long time.

This message must be pronounced to all people in the world, concerned with the permissions for safety regulations and directions. As soon as there are new established standards considering the new capabilities of the laser cut glass plate stability, there is no way back. In a short time then, the laser cutting technology will replace all existing cutting techniques for industrial use completely.

The famous 'Formula_One' race driver Michael Schumacher says "Ahead the field is always open space".
With this in mind we like to invite you, the glass producing and processing industry as well as the glass facade makers, the architects and the glass users: The pole position of a new era in glass quality is available for you!
