Money saving: the automatic trimming has been reduced to the minimum and very close to “zero” in order to minimize glass scraps.

High automation: beside the full automatic cutting cycle, the sheet squaring is automatic and can be “up-to zero” so to grant the ideal conditions for low-e removal even along the edge

Very comfortable working: the control box, together with the video and keyboard, can be completely turned so to be adjusted according to operator’s position

Interactive graphic controls: all data and machine’s controls can be managed simply and easily through a specific graphic toolbar which has been designed by Macotec purposely for laminated glass cutting for a very friendly-use

Performances: thanks to an innovative heating system, more powerful than what the present market can offer, performances have been increased both in cycle time and glass thickness

Low-e capability: all clamping system is anti-friction and has been built with a special non-marking rubber. In order to reach the best performance, a peripheral grinding wheel is available



Nothing more correct than saying “built around yourself”
