Effectus summary This clip shows a 180 degree turning machine in a glass line. A sheet arrives on a roller conveyor, the turning frame clamps it between two roller beds, turns it over and sends it on with the other face up. The footage was shared with us; our equivalent solution turns glass, metal sheet, board and panels the same way, with the frame sized to your largest sheet.

Quod fragmentum ostendit
| Ego morsque dividimur | Quod vides |
|---|---|
| Infeed | A large glass sheet travels in on a powered roller conveyor |
| clamping | The turning frame closes its roller beds on both faces of the sheet |
| Conversa | The frame rotates the sheet through 180 degrees inside a yellow guard |
| Outfeed | The sheet rolls out with its other face up |
| Line | Further roller conveyors run on through the plant |
Why turn a sheet over
- Two-sided work. Inspection, coating or cleaning of both faces without lifting by hand.
- Less breakage. Rollers on both faces hold the sheet through the whole turn.
- No crane. Large sheets are turned in line, so the crane stays free.
- Fluxus constans. The turner keeps pace with the conveyor, so sheets do not queue.

Quod per lineam statuimus
| Profecti | Dependet |
|---|---|
| magnitudine frame | Maxima longitudo et latitudo chartae |
| clamping | Roller beds or soft pads, per surface |
| Angulus conversionis | 180 degrees, or 90 degrees to stand sheets up |
| Altitudo convectoris | Your existing line |
Index selectionis
- Maxima et minima magnitudo chartae.
- Sheet thickness and weight.
- Surface that must not be marked.
- Chartae per horam.
- Conveyor height and direction.
- Angulus conversionis: 180 vel 90 gradus.
salutem
- Keep clear of the turning frame and fence it with interlocked gates.
- Stop the turner before removing a broken sheet.
- Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling glass.
- Pro mercatibus CE, machina secundum ISO 12100 et EN 415-10 designata est.
Quaestiones Frequentes de Ingeniaria
Q: What does a 180 degree turning machine do? A: It flips a sheet over in the line so the other face is up.
Q: Which products can it turn? A: Glass, metal sheet, board and panels, with the frame sized to the largest sheet.
Q: How is the sheet held during the turn? A: Roller beds close on both faces, so the sheet cannot slide.
Q: How many sheets per hour? A: About 60 sheets per hour with an illustrative 60 s cycle (30 s turn plus 30 s transfer); real output depends on sheet size and line speed.
Q: Can it turn 90 degrees? A: Yes. We set it for 90 degrees when sheets must stand up.
Q: Can you build this configuration? A: Yes. We build equivalent turning machines sized to your sheets and conveyor line.
Q: Quae normae valent? A: Pro mercatibus CE, ISO 12100 et EN 415-10.
