Method and device for sealing insulated glass blanks

A method for sealing at least one insulating glass blank (1) comprising:

• using at least one filling nozzle (7) to introduce sealing compound into an edge joint of the insulating glass blank (1), whereby relative movements between the at least one filling nozzle (7) and the insulating glass blank (1) are created by moving the filling nozzle (7) and the insulating glass blank (1),
• wherein the insulating glass blank (1) is moved in a conveying direction (17) while the sealing compound is being introduced into the edge joint from the at least one filling nozzle (7),
• wherein, as sealing compound is being introduced into sections (11, 13) of the edge joint of the insulating glass blank (1) which are oriented parallel to the conveying direction (17), the at least one filling nozzle (7) is at a standstill in the conveying direction (17) or is moved at a speed V2 that is different from a speed V1 of movement of the insulating glass blank (1),
• wherein, as the sealing compound is being introduced into sections (3, 9) of the edge joint which are oriented transversely to the conveying direction (17), the at least one filling nozzle (7) is moved at the same speed V2 as the insulating glass blank (1) in the conveying direction and additionally transversely (42) to the conveying direction (17), and
• wherein as sealing compound is being introduced into sections of the edge joint which enclose an angle with respect to the conveying direction, the at least one filling nozzle (7) is moved transversely (42) to the conveying direction (17) in addition to moving parallel to the conveying direction (17).
