Integrated Laminated Glass Cutting Technology

The Vetromac LAM28 is a high-technology module developed for cutting laminated glass in combination with a Vetromac CNC float glass cutting machine.

By adding the LAM28 module, the complete system becomes an integrated all-in-one glass cutting solution capable of processing both monolithic float glass and laminated glass within the same production area.

This configuration helps glass processors extend their production capabilities without installing a completely separate laminated-glass cutting line.

Laminated Glass Processing Capacity

The LAM28 is designed for laminated glass compositions ranging from 3+3 mm to 8+8 mm.

It supports a maximum glass length of 2,750 mm and provides positioning accuracy of ±0.5 mm.

With a maximum operating speed of 160 m/min, the module combines controlled glass handling with efficient production performance.

Integrated Operation with the CNC Cutting Machine

The movable bridge of the connected Vetromac CNC float glass cutting machine performs multiple functions during laminated-glass processing.

It acts as a positioning stop for accurate sheet alignment and also operates as the cutting bridge for the laminated glass.

This integrated design reduces the number of separate mechanical units required and allows the float-glass cutting machine and laminated-glass module to work as one coordinated system.

Vacuum Glass Holding System

The LAM28 uses a vacuum holding system to secure the laminated glass during processing.

Its contact surface is fully rubberised to provide a strong and stable grip through the suction cups while protecting the glass surface.

Automatic vacuum-control valves manage the suction system and help maintain reliable glass holding throughout the operating cycle.

Retractable Protective Balls

The working area incorporates retractable protective balls that support the movement and positioning of the glass sheet.

The balls retract during the holding and processing phase, allowing the glass to rest securely on the rubberised vacuum surface.

This system helps reduce friction during handling while supporting precise positioning before cutting.

Glass Floating System

The integrated Glass Floating System creates a cushion of air underneath the glass, making it easier to move and position the sheet across the working surface.

The system is particularly useful when handling heavier laminated-glass sheets and helps reduce operator effort during positioning.

Serviceable Modular Construction

The LAM28 is designed with accessible and individually replaceable components.

This service-oriented construction simplifies maintenance and allows worn or damaged parts to be replaced without changing complete assemblies.

The modular design supports reduced downtime and lower long-term maintenance costs.

Compact Integration

The LAM28 has a compact footprint of approximately 3,100 × 2,865 mm and a working height adjustable from 890 to 960 mm.

Its dimensions are designed to support practical integration with the corresponding Vetromac CNC cutting machine and existing glass-processing layouts.

Designed for Low Total Cost of Ownership

By combining float-glass and laminated-glass cutting capabilities in one coordinated system, the LAM28 can reduce the need for separate machinery, additional floor space and duplicated handling equipment.

Its replaceable components, integrated vacuum system and modular construction support reliable operation and a low total cost of ownership throughout the machine’s lifecycle.
