The defining visual and structural feature of this machine is its dual-wing flip-platform architecture: the upper platform consists of two large suction panels mounted symmetrically on either side of a central control column, which flip open to a flat horizontal loading position and close into the bonding angle when the cycle starts. This wide-span structure accommodates the full 1800 mm substrate length with bilateral support — avoiding the cantilevered deflection risk that a single-sided flip mechanism would face at this scale.

The machine is a G+F (Glass-to-Film) laminator: the glass substrate is placed on the lower suction platform, and the film is held on the upper flip platform. When the operator presses Start, the upper platform automatically rotates into bonding position, and the motor drives the lower platform forward along the bonding stroke, pressing the roller progressively across the substrate.

This platform architecture is size-configurable: the same machine design is available in 300×400mm, 500×700mm, 600×900mm, and 1200×1800mm configurations, with other sizes available on request. The 1200×1800mm is the largest standard configuration.

Key Features

1. Dual-Wing Flip-Platform Architecture — Bilateral Support at 1800mm Scale The upper platform uses a dual-wing symmetric structure: two large suction panels are mounted on either side of the central control column, forming a wide-span bilateral support system for the film substrate. When loading, both wings open outward to a flat horizontal position. When the cycle starts, both wings rotate simultaneously to the bonding angle. This bilateral design distributes the weight of the large film substrate symmetrically, preventing platform deflection across the 1800mm width that would occur with a single-sided flip design.

2. Dual Vacuum Suction — Upper and Lower Platforms Both the upper (film) and lower (glass) platforms use vacuum suction to hold the substrate during loading, alignment, and bonding. The upper platform uses a vacuum pump and solenoid valve system to maintain film registration as the platform flips and the bonding roller progresses. The lower platform holds the glass panel flat and stationary throughout the bonding stroke.

3. Servo-Motor Driven Flip with PLC + Touchscreen HMI The flip platform rotation is driven by a servo motor with reducer, providing controlled, repeatable flip motion. The PLC control system with touchscreen HMI provides:

Automatic and manual operating modes
Adjustable bonding speed and travel speed (% of maximum, set via HMI)
Production count display (cycle counter, retained after power-off)
Cycle time display (seconds, auto-resets each cycle)
Parameter interface, I/O monitoring
Reset and zero functions

4. Pneumatic Roller Bonding System The roller is driven downward by a pneumatic cylinder at the start of each bonding stroke. The roller presses the film onto the glass panel surface as the lower platform travels along the 1800mm stroke. Roller pressure is controlled via the pneumatic circuit with pressure regulation. Air supply required: 0.4–0.6 MPa (4–6 kg/cm²).

5. Steel-Frame + Aluminium Alloy Platform Structure The machine frame is sheet metal and aluminium alloy construction — providing structural rigidity at the 5708mm length while keeping weight accessible for installation. Aluminium alloy is used for the suction platform panels, combining low weight with sufficient flatness for large-area vacuum suction.

6. Configurable Platform Size — 300×400mm to 1800×1200mm The same machine platform architecture is available in four standard sizes: 300×400 / 500×700 / 600×900 / 1200×1800mm, and custom sizes upon request. This makes the product line scalable for production facilities handling multiple panel sizes or planning future capacity expansion.

Why Choose Us

1. Dual-Wing Architecture — Stable at 1800mm Scale The bilateral symmetric wing design is the engineering solution for reliable film loading and bonding at 1800mm substrate width. Each wing supports half the film width independently, eliminating the platform deflection that makes single-sided designs impractical at this scale.

2. Full Size Range — One Platform Architecture, Multiple Configurations The same machine design spans 300×400mm to 1800×1200mm, enabling production facilities to standardise on one equipment type and training programme across their panel size range. Custom sizes are available upon request.

3. Integrated Vacuum Pump — No External Vacuum Equipment Required The machine includes an integrated vacuum pump. No external vacuum pump installation, piping, or infrastructure is required — reducing installation complexity and footprint.

4. Servo Flip Drive — Controlled, Repeatable Platform Motion Servo motor control of the flip mechanism provides controlled angular velocity and positioning throughout the flip cycle — consistent cycle-to-cycle regardless of film substrate weight distribution. This is particularly relevant at 1200×1800mm scale where the loaded film panel has significant mass.

5. PLC + HMI with Speed Adjustment and Production Counting Bonding speed and travel speed are independently adjustable as percentages of maximum via the HMI parameter screen — enabling operators to optimise the bonding profile for different film types without tooling changes. Production count is retained after power-off, supporting shift output monitoring.

FAQ

Q1: What film types and substrates is this machine designed for?

A: The machine handles G+F (Glass-to-Film) lamination — a glass substrate is placed on the lower platform and a film is held on the upper flip platform. Compatible film types include OCA (Optical Clear Adhesive), SCA (Super Clear Adhesive), AB adhesive, polarizing film, protective film, conductive/ITO film, and functional sheets, applied to flat glass panels and large display substrates within the 1800×1200mm working area.Specific material compatibility should be confirmed with our sales team based on your product and process requirements.

Q2: What is the effective lamination area?

A: The effective lamination area is 1800 × 1200 mm (confirmed in both the operation manual and product images). This machine handles glass panels and films up to 1800mm in the bonding direction and 1200mm in width.For panels smaller than 1800×1200mm, smaller configurations (300×400 / 500×700 / 600×900mm) of the same machine architecture are also available.

Q3: What is the dual-wing flip platform, and why is it used at this size?

A: The upper platform consists of two large suction panels mounted symmetrically on either side of a central column — a dual-wing design. Both wings open horizontally for film loading, then rotate simultaneously to the bonding angle when the cycle starts.At 1800mm substrate width, a single-sided flip platform would create an unbalanced moment and risk deflection under the weight of the large film panel. The dual-wing symmetric design distributes the substrate weight equally across both sides, maintaining platform flatness and alignment stability at this scale.

Q4: What power supply and air supply does this machine require?

A:Power: AC380V / 6KW (three-phase power required; frequency not stated in the operation manual — confirm with supplier; 50Hz assumed for standard installations) Air supply: 0.4–0.6 MPa (4–6 kg/cm²), external air compressor required The machine includes an integrated vacuum pump — no external vacuum equipment is required.

Q5: What other platform sizes are available in this machine series?

A: The same dual-wing flip-platform machine architecture is available in the following standard configurations:300 × 400 mm 500 × 700 mm 600 × 900 mm 1200 × 1800 mm (this model) Custom sizes are available upon request — contact our sales team with your panel dimensions and production requirements.

Q6: Can this machine be customised?

A: Yes. Platform size can be customised to match your specific glass panel dimensions — standard sizes are 300×400 / 500×700 / 600×900 / 1200×1800mm, and other sizes are available upon request. Contact our sales team with your product dimensions and process requirements. Customer-specified configurations are confirmed via a Technical Agreement before production.
