TUROMAS responds to one of the current needs of the glass market with the new cutting system for laminated safety glass railings.

Composed of two mechanical stops that allow agile and precise positioning, the new TUROMAS system eliminates the need for additional tools and considerably reduces cutting time, optimizing the workflow.

How the LAM-BA System Works

The TUROMAS system is composed of two mechanical stops that work together to ensure precise glass positioning. Of these, the first is located on the measuring carriage. It enables positioning and rotation of the glass until it is perfectly squared with the second stop, which is located on the cutting line.

Both stops are automatically positioned, adjusting to the largest dimension of the balustrade to utilize the full length of the piece. Such a design eliminates the need for additional tools or elements reducing the possibility of errors while maximising efficiency.

Unlike other systems, the potential error is limited to the margin of one of the two stops, avoiding additional deviations that might arise with more complex configurations.

Advantages of the Stop-Based Positioning System

  1. Agility in the Process

The glass is positioned in a single step. The stops automatically adjust to the required dimensions, allowing the operator to square and rotate the piece in one action. This simplifies the process and significantly reduces cutting times. Additionally, as no additional tools are needed for positioning, overall efficiency is improved.

  1. Precision for Laminated Glass up to 10+10 mm

The system is designed to meet the requirements of the Technical Building Code (CTE), which regulates the characteristics of laminated safety glass in construction projects, particularly for balustrades. This system ensures precise scoring, breaking, and separation in glass up to 10+10 mm thick, delivering high-quality results without the need for additional processes.

  1. Cutting Nested Balustrades

The system also allows for agile and precise cutting of nested balustrades. Thanks to positioning based on the corners of each piece, contiguous cuts can be made without the need to align shapes in a straight line. This capability provides great versatility for projects requiring complex or customised cuts.

  1. Specialised Software for Balustrade Cutting

The system includes a software module designed to facilitate the work. This programme allows both the opening of existing optimisations and the creation of new shapes tailored to the specific needs of the project.

Available Software Options:

  • Open Piece: The software identifies optimisations that include balustrades, allowing the desired shape to be selected and transferred directly to the cutting window.

  • Draw Balustrades: This tool enables the design of balustrades using predefined parameters, such as the base, the diagonal between points, the length of the sides, and the angles between them. This ensures any design can be quickly and precisely adapted.

Measurement and Verification

When a balustrade is included in the optimisation plan, the programme detects its presence and displays the trajectory along with the necessary instructions, such as rotating the piece 180 degrees. It also allows measurements to be checked at any point of the shape, ensuring a perfect fit.

5. Benefits for the Construction Sector

The implementation of this system offers notable advantages for the construction sector. Production times are significantly reduced thanks to the agility of the process, and the cuts meet the highest quality standards. This ensures that the resulting pieces are ideal for demanding projects.

The stop-based positioning system represents a practical and efficient solution for cutting balustrades in laminated safety glass. With this approach, it becomes an indispensable tool for optimising cutting processes and ensuring quality results in every project.
