The 1600mm Horizontal Insulated Glass Washing and Drying Machine is a critical component in modern insulating glass unit (IGU) production lines. Designed for continuous industrial operation, it processes flat glass panels up to 1600mm wide through a fully automated sequence of washing, rinsing, and drying stages. The result is a perfectly cleaned and completely dried glass surface, ready for immediate assembly into sealed IGUs.
This machine handles float glass, tempered glass, laminated glass, and Low-E coated glass with equal effectiveness, making it a versatile solution for architectural glass fabricators, window manufacturers, and facade contractors
Construction and Materials
Frame: Heavy-duty carbon steel with anti-corrosion paint coating
Easy Maintenance — Quick-access panels, self-cleaning filters, and a user-friendly layout simplify routine servicing.
How It Works
Step 1: Loading and Conveyance
Glass panels enter the machine via motorized rubber-coated rollers. A variable frequency drive controls the conveyor speed from 2 to 10 meters per minute, allowing synchronization with upstream and downstream equipment.
Step 2: Pre-Wash Stage
High-pressure water spray loosens and removes loose particles, dust, and light surface debris before the glass enters the brush section.
Step 3: Main Wash with Brushes
Soft nylon roller brushes rotate against the glass surface while warm water mixed with a mild detergent is applied. The brush pressure is adjustable to accommodate different glass thicknesses and coating types. For Low-E glass, reduced pressure settings prevent coating damage.
Step 4: Fresh Water Rinse
Clean water rinses away any remaining detergent residue and suspended particles. A separate deionized water rinse stage is available as an optional upgrade for applications requiring zero mineral deposits.
Step 5: Air Knife Drying
High-pressure air knives positioned above and below the glass strip away all surface moisture. The blower speed and air temperature can be adjusted to match production speed and ambient conditions.
Step 6: Output to Next Station
Dry, clean glass exits the machine ready for inspection, spacer application, and pressing into finished IGUs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this machine handle Low-E coated glass?
A: Yes. The soft nylon brushes and adjustable pressure settings are specifically designed to clean Low-E and other sensitive coated glass without damaging the coating.
Q: What is the daily maintenance requirement?
A: Daily tasks include checking water levels, cleaning filters, and inspecting brush condition. Full maintenance schedule is provided in the operation manual.
Q: Can the machine be integrated into an existing production line?
A: Absolutely. The machine is designed for seamless integration with vertical sealing machines, pressing machines, and automated handling systems.
Q: What after-sales support do you provide?
A: We offer 12-month warranty, lifetime technical support, spare parts supply, and remote troubleshooting. On-site service can be arranged upon request.
