S-Series

Spinning Machines

WALTEC’s S-Series combines ESERVO drive technology with flexible, precise glass spinning.

Available with 9, 18 or 24 stations, the machines achieve output rates of up to 90 pieces per minute and can produce up to three different articles simultaneously. Independently controlled spinning spindles, variable gob weights and adjustable speed profiles ensure consistent quality, even for smaller batches. Efficient cooling, operator-friendly controls and synchronized HVC vacuum take-out support continuous production.

With quick changeovers, reduced energy consumption and reliable handling, the S-Series delivers versatile performance for modern tableware and cookware manufacturing – Made in Germany.

Feeder

Always the perfect gob – 
flexible press operations

WALTEC’s ESERVO feeder system supports single, double and triple gob production through independently operated feeding mechanisms on a single feeder head. Depending on the production mode, the individual feeders are automatically activated or parked, ensuring maximum flexibility and precise process control.

ESERVO Components

Improved sustainability – 
significant energy savings

Modernize existing glass production with WALTEC’s ESERVO retrofit solutions. Replacing conventional hydraulic and pneumatic systems with precisely controlled servo technology reduces energy and compressed-air consumption while improving process accuracy, repeatability and production efficiency.

S-Series – Production Lines

Variable speed up to 90 pieces per minute

WALTEC’s spinning machines are available with 1, 9, 18 or even 24 stations. A second-to-none sustainable solution for the press-blow process: The Industry 4.0-compliant W-Series offers innovative technology, including energy savings and unprecedented process accuracy and repeatability, leading to a new level of process efficiency. Discover industry-leading solutions and quality made in Germany from WALTEC.

Combined with the linear ESERVO feeder for variable gob weights, the S-SERIES can produce up to three different articles simultaneously.

The process sequence can be configured individually for each article. Acceleration values, variable speed profiles and high-speed stability throughout the production process are ensured by energy-efficient servo drives. This flexibility enables the efficient production of small batch sizes.

All our production lines are designed to meet the economic and environmental requirements of tomorrow’s sustainable glass manufacturing.

Precise control

Stable production.

Precise control.

Intelligent process control and precise, repeatable machine movements ensure reliable production conditions, consistent article quality and efficient operation.

INNOVATIVE TEMPERATURe CONTROL System

Maximized process stability

The outstanding linear motion arm assures a fast start of article cooling. The moulds are cooled down sideways by separate adjustable airflow pipes, achieving lower temperatures by highly efficient water cooling or via compressed air.

INTUITIVE USABILITY – OPERATOR-FRIENDLY

Control System

The S-SERIES is easy to handle: An operator-focused control dashboard permits a comfortable setting for all process parameters. Operator safety comes first: Multiple integrated automatic machine stops monitor several positions during the spinning process and, together with emergency stops, help keep production safe and reliable.

FOCUS ON PRODUCTIVITY

Operational safety

In addition to its waterproof and pollution-resistant electronics, the S-SERIES features heavy-duty, water-cooled switch cabinets. The controls are decentralized and placed away from heat and dirt. The central vacuum reduces the noise substantially.

Handling

High-speed handling

Due to our modular design, optimal handling and transfer systems can be planned for all glass articles by choosing a suitable combination based on WALTEC’s standard systems.

Software

Sustainable hot-end process optimization through data management

WTRACK by WALTEC is a powerful modular solution for process optimization and enhanced process transparency. WTRACK can be integrated into existing operations platforms and is compatible with most common in-house IT configurations. WTRACK upgrades your existing machine whilst taking WALTEC‘s E-Generation technology to the next level.
