Compact Automated Welding and Cleaning Line for Sash
Compact Sash Line
The new Stürtz Compact Sash Line can produce up to 900 welded and cleaned sash per shift with one operator in under 1200 square feet.
The new line consists of two Stürtz Model SMI-HSM-20/19CDS Horizontal Four Point Sash Welders. Each welder is automatically unloaded via a single tier belt system. The welded sash are then transferred onto a twin tier buffer and transport table which separates the squares and feeds them onto an infeed belt buffer. The buffer conveyor then feeds each individual square into the corner cleaner.
The highlight of the line is the Stürtz Model SMI-CNC-H-4K-20/20 Automated Four Head Pass Through Sash Corner Cleaner. This programmable, CNC machine cleans all four corners of the sash at the same time. Compact tooling arrangements allow for four head cleaning on sash as small as 12” x 12”.
This new line is designed with high productivity and space savings in mind. To achieve this, the welders can be mounted on a common base and conveying systems are kept to a minimum length which still allows for adequate buffering through the line.
