Roller Press

This PLC-controlled machine efficiently presses pre-assembled units with Poly-Iso-Butylene (PIB) applied to the spacer bar, creating a primary sealed unit ready for gas filling and final sealing. It's versatile, accommodating structural foam spacer bars like 'Superspacer'. The press seamlessly integrates into a semi-automatic line or operates as a standalone unit at the end of an existing glass washer unit.
