Structure

General

VHO-AF-C-(2+2)

The oven is composed of following,

  • One Oven Body with 2 Doors
  • Two 2-Storey Glass Carts
  • Four Silicon Blankets
  • One Vacuum System
  • One Heating System
  • One Hot Air Blower System
  • One Electric Control

Oven Body

Two-Storey EVA Vacuum & Laminating Oven

It consists of surface well-treated thick steel sheets with one door in front and another rear. Double jackets are design on both sides of oven body. Heating elements put inside the double jackets. The steel sheets are constructed in double layers fully filled up with special heat insulation materials. This is to reduce heat loss to minimize power consumption. Two outward opening doors with handles are well insulated too. The doors are well sealed when they are close.

Glass Cart

Glass Cart

It comes with two carts. This 2 storey glass cart is made of sturdy tubular steel structure. Steel frames at two sides of upper deck could be downward folded. Silicon blankets freely slide in and out between oven and carts either from front or rear doors.

Silicon Blankets

There are totally 4 silicon blankets. Silicon blanket is the core of glass vacuum & heating laminating oven. This carefully selected vacuum rubber blanket is made of durable high temperature resistant silicon. It is strong, durable but flexible allowing easy handling. Each set of this integrity silicon blanket consist of one top and one bottom sheets. The fours edges of top and bottom sheets are embedded to each other firmly. The corrugated tooth is specially designed in such a way that the higher the vacuum, the tighter is the seal. This sophisticated tight seal feature prevents from air leaking during vacuuming on one hand while allows easy opening on the other. The top blanket is more soft and flexible than bottom sheet. It allows top blanket elastic enough to wrap around and get in physically direct contact with glass surface and edges thoroughly to guarantee no air is trap inside, which may do harm to perfect vacuuming. Each silicon blanket comes with silicon tube which is eventually connected to vacuum terminal pipe leading to vacuum pump. This silicon blanket is universal applied in all types of Xinology vacuum & heating glass laminating machine.

Vacuum System

A reliable and durable vacuum pump is located outside the oven. A long piece of vacuum silicon hose is connected from the vacuum pump to the metal vacuum terminal pipe inside the oven via a well sealed hole on oven body. Silicon tube of each silicon blanket is plug into vacuum terminal pipe. Vacuum pump generates enough power of vacuum and thus, sucks air out in between top and bottom silicon sheets. The powerful vacuum pump guarantees de-airing of laminated glass thoroughly and prevents bubbles from forming. It is design to run 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.

Heating System

The heating system is consisted of carefully selected heating resistant elements putting inside the double jackets of the oven body. During hot air convection, air passes through double jacket of oven and is re-heated when it gets in contact with heating elements.

Hot Air Blower

A powerful fan blower is used to create hot air circulation system inside oven. When it is turned on, hot air is sucked and passes through between the two silicon blankets. The hot air heats up the silicon blanket and thus, laminated glass. The air then runs into double jackets on both oven sides and is then re-heated by heating elements. The heated air is sucked again and heat up silicon blankets again. This uninterrupted heat circulation system provides fast and strong forced convection heating on laminated glass. There is a switch plate putting in an opening where hot air passes through. This plate could be turned in and out to control opening size. When opening size is large, more hot air quantity passes through and, vice versa.

Electrical Control

Electrical Control

Control console is located at oven side. It is used to control rising, constant and lowering of temperatures and corresponding timing. When a parameter is set for a certain batch of glass lamination, this parameter is stored in memory. It could be taken out immediately when the parameter is found useful for other batches. Vacuum pump is also activated from this control console.
