The vacuum profile

With the vacuum profile, Schauenburg Industrietechnik has found an ingenious solution for glass production in small to large series. The innovative, perfectly fitting vacuum lip profiles are made to order according to an individual drawing with a 1:1 scale. This allows the glass industry to offer complete solutions for the automotive sector, even in small series. Very small series are for example utilised in the development of a new product.

Advantages of the vacuum profile:

• Perfectly adaptable to the respective project
• Strong and stable even under challenging conditions
• Choice of various profile types – up to a composite thickness of 20 mm
• Use of innovative materials such as silicone and elastomer
• Profile angle available in different versions

Vacuum lip profiles adapt to virtually any pane shape. As an innovative research partner for the automobile industry, Schauenburg Industrietechnik supports entirely new insights and results in the development and testing of new products within the glass industry.

Tailored solutions for development and production

Bulk stock is extruded and cut to length for each vacuum profile. Then the corners and T-pieces are vulcanised with the help of injection tools. This results in a number of design possibilities. The solution is efficient and cost-effective, especially for small series and medium-sized production runs up to 250 units.

If a company in the glass industry is faced with particular technical challenges, the wide range of individual elements, for example the angles in various designs, help to ensure that the vacuum profile can be perfectly adapted. Due to the simplicity of the system, Schauenburg Industrietechnik can produce all vacuum profiles quickly and to perfection. In the field of automotive production and research, this means that there are no time delays and a project can be completed as planned.

Schauenburg Industrietechnik offers its profile solutions in different versions that are tested in the automotive sector under normal conditions. Precise manufacturing is the key to success. A high load bearing capacity is always assured by the vacuum process.

Schauenburg Industrietechnik – a strong industry partner with the vacuum profile

Schauenburg Industrietechnik has been a strong and flexible industry partner since the company was founded. Thanks to individually adaptable elements, the products are used in many fields such as the automobile industry. The vacuum profile is the perfect example of an innovative product that helps many partners in the glass industry and automobile sector realise custom solutions. Individual parameters that can be adapted to the project or product in small series lead to tailor-made processing. In case of the profile in question, this is the ideal method for laminated glass panes with a thickness of three millimetres and up. The resilient material withstands temperatures of up to 150 degrees Celsius.

Versions depending on the profile type (frames with corner connections and T-piece):

· 90° angle
· 70° angle
· 40° angle
· Rings with T-piece
· Connection for the vacuum hose
· T-piece
· With vacuum hose connected by vulcanisation

Automobile industry partner

Schauenburg Industrietechnik is a partner of choice for the automobile industry with this solution. Small series and products in the development phase can be thoroughly tested this way. Laminated glass can be readily installed in frames of any version. Automotive suppliers and the automobile industry can gain insights with the help of this product, leading to a better marketable product.
