Greater efficiency, less risk: How the FTC-C makes Foil cutting easier

Recurring problems with manual Foil cutting

• High risk of injury
• Time-consuming
• Movement of the pane causes misalignment in the laminate
• Contamination in the laminate due to manual handling
• Foil pulls back at the edges or forms bubbles due to inaccurate cutting
• Processing of large elements is difficult
  
  

The Solution: Automatic Foil cutting with the FTC-C

This is where the LiSEC solution “FTC-C” (Foil Trim Cut) for automatic foil cutting comes into play. Automatic handling and precise cutting of the foil ensure consistent quality. This reduces the risk of injury and increases efficiency.

The FTC-C processes rectangular, double-layered, laminated glass fully automatically and precisely, from a minimum size of 600 x 400 mm (LxW) up to a maximum width of 3.3 m and a definable maximum length (current models process up to 12 m).

Watch the FTC-C in action:
