To meet the needs of vehicle designers who are specifying large, cylindrical symmetrical and asymmetrical sidelites, US bending and tempering systems manufacturer, Glasstech, has expanded its popular family of CRB Advanced Cylindrical Radius Benders to include a 1.500mm-wide CRBI model. This new, wider model is, says the firm, ideal for processing the asymmetrical glass sidelites used in busses and railroad passenger cars where the glass sweeps into the roofline. The CRB system can produce shapes with two radii, J-bends or V-bends. The CRB1 and CRB2 systems are designed to form flat glass into basic cylindrical shapes. The systems are simple and efficient to operate and highly productive. Glasstech says that glass processed on the systems meets exacting tolerances and has excellent optical qualities.
