pH Electrode Glass Bodies
We use our own fully automated lathes are used for the production of the glass electrode bodies. We manufacture the glass bodies that house the electrode. The glass body electrode is most often used in laboratory applications.
This enables us to produce exceptional and repeatable quality that is very important in mass production. read more on pH Electrode Glass Bodies
Lathe Accessories
The new generation of pneumatic chucks specifically designed for the MBS series defines new standards in accuracy and flexibility. These chucks are based on a high quality standard Schunk model, that has been modified to fit glass and quartz manufacturing requirements.
Extended life time, very accurate indexing system, interchangeable jaws and jaws covers and smoother behavior are the main improvements of that new generation.
Pneumatic chucks
In some applications, mainly pieces shaped at the end of the tube (such as threads, joins, flanges), the process requires that the tube is shaped both outside and inside.
The outside forming can be performed by using the revolving external forming tool holder, which is a standard equipement of the termographic controlled lathe. At the opposite, the inside forming requires a special 'tool', named 'internal forming tool holder'.
Thermographic controlled lathes
The thermographic controlled lathes manufactured by Sadems are high technology production equipments fully automatically producing a wide range of glass and quartz products (hot forming operations).
From tubes or rods, these machines can shape by using any combination of forming, pushing, pulling, blowing, sealing, collapsing or centrifugation operations, providing a very high dimensionnal accuracy.
Automatic glass forming machines
Sadems Industrie, a developer of computer-controlled glass processes, has introduced thermographic and dimensionally controlled automated lathes that use a Windows-based training system for fabrication of glass or quartz parts.
Auto lathes can be programmed to perform the work of highly skilled craftsmen. This is especially advantageous when manufacturing with high yields as it allows for consistency and repeatability of quality.
Subcontracting
Sadems Industrie offers an unique and exclusive service to its customers. Thanks to high-tech equipments including thermographic controlled lathes, we can produce, on custom basis, a very wide range of glass and quartz components for your industrial needs.
Furthermore, the productivity and flexibility of our equipments guarantees a top quality at the best price, from small to large series (see specifications at the back). The pictures displayed hereabove show a small sample of various types of components we can produce.
Semi-calibrated tubes
and profiles
Other products:
- Thermographically controlled lathe - Type MONOBLOC
- Thermographic controlled lathe - Type MINIBLOC
- Thermographic controlled lathe accessories
- Pneumatic chuck model 2008 for MBS 42 series
Sadems Industrie manufactures various shapes of semi-calibrated tubes and profiles (see specifications hereunder) in most of types of glasses (borosilicate glasses, soda glass, lead glass and electronic glasses). They are used both in industrial and decorative applications. « Custom made » products are available starting from 10 meters. Available equipments also allows mass production of thousands of meters.
The semi-calibrated tube has a better accuracy than standard tubes on the outside or inside diameter, but is not as accurate as a calibrated tube (under vaccuum). The main advantage is the price as the precision of the calibrated tube is not required.
Aside the precision, another possibility is to produce small quantities of « non-standard » dimensions (diameters or wall thickness).
Profiles can be triangular, square, rectangular, hexagonal or oval.
Standard length is 1000mm but tubes and profiles can be supplied cut at any length from 5 to 1500mm.
