Abstract
A method for transporting a fixed glazing to be equipped with a coating, particularly a curved glazing, through a coating plant. The glazing is transported by a transport device through the plant such that one of its main sides is covered with protection against the coating substance that is to be deposited. The side of the glazing that is to be protected when the coating is being deposited is kept in contact with a flexible fabric attached to the transport device.
Claims14
A method for transporting glazing that is to be coated, through a coating plant, comprising:
- transporting the glazing by a transport device through the coating plant, such that one of its main sides is at least partially covered with a protection against the coating substance that is to be applied,
- wherein during a coating-depositing operation, at least part of the side of the glazing that is to be protected is kept in contact with a flexible fabric attached to the transport device by mechanical tensioning devices hooked to one or more outer edges of the glazing to prevent a deposition of coating substance.
A method for transporting glazing that is to be coated through a coating plant, comprising:
- transporting the glazing by a transport device through the plant, such that a main side of the glazing is at least partially covered with a flexible fabric against the coating substance that is to be applied, wherein during a coating-depositing operation, a peripheral contour of the main side of the glazing is impressed into the flexible fabric attached to the transport device, wherein said fabric prevents deposition of coating substance on the main side.
