BIG Jack: Glass-cutting automat


Glass cutting auto­matic machine BIG Jack is a six-axis cutting center used to dec­o­rate glass prod­ucts. Indi­vid­ual axes are driven by ser­vo­mo­tors. BIG Jack is designed for machin­ing larger pieces and can be used with either flat or rotary ones. Using its probe, it auto­mat­i­cally mea­sures the work­piece to ensure con­stant depth of cut in the var­i­ously deformed arti­cles. It is also pos­si­ble to replace its primary machin­ing head with an aux­il­iary one for surface cutting, thus chang­ing the nature of the machin­ing. The entire control system and the program itself are devel­oped by Bohemia Machine. Big Jack is a unique machine which, thanks to its arrange­ment of the posi­tion­ing axes, covers the com­plete surface of the work­piece. The machin­ing head can be modified accord­ing to the cus­tomer’s require­ments. It is pos­si­ble to retrofit it with a solid table with a Z axis stroke for grind­ing 600x600mm glass plates.

BIG Jack is designed for dec­o­ra­tion of glass arti­cles on one posi­tion. The machine works with one product.
