Crack-off Machine Control System

With the “Crack-off Machine Control System” (FCC), Bucher Automation Tettnang offers a modular control and drive system designed for use with rotating crack-off machines. Such a rotary machine is, alongside blowing and pressing machines, an essential component of a production line for manufacturing items such as goblets. In this process, the glass goblets are cut to size, ground, washed, and finally polished.
