Description
In this paper the concept of ultra-thin glass sheets handling is introduced. In order to investigate the implemented concept on a subject of safety of glass sheets during the handlings the concept was realized in 3-axis gantry system equipped with a suction gripper and experimentally examined. The results of the experimental investigation of the concept on a subject of safety of glass sheets during the handlings are presented in this article. Accent is made on the measurements and analysis of occurring vertical vibrations, experienced by the suction gripper along the movement, as far as on the influence of the driving pressure value on the disturbance of a glass surface during the contact with suction cups. Based on the results, the optimal design of handling gripper is proposed.[333]
