Punching System
The Simultaneous Punching System perforates several points at once with fast and accurate results. Each compact punching unit is designed for heavy-duty continuous work with a press force of up to 1.5 tons. The units slide smoothly with a soft finger touch and can be locked in any position set by a measuring tape, according to the company, which reports the system has a failsafe fully pneumatic interface “Plug N Punch” with no need for electricity, oil refills or maintenance. One foot lever activates up to eight pneumatic units at once in a fraction of a second.

Screen applicator
The SAC-845 automates the application of screen mesh to a pre-assembled screen frame. Users can use barcode scanning or direct ERP input to identify the screen frame, automatically choose and apply the correct screen mesh, then insert the screen spline and trim excess perimeter screen mesh. The estimated typical cycle time for a 24- by 36-inch window screen frame is approximately 35 seconds including all handling, according to company officials. Model SAC-855 can accommodate larger sizes, such as 48- by 96-inch patio doors, as well as smaller window sizes.

Coating machine
The FuseCube Express is DFI’s newest coating machine that applies Diamon-Fusion protective coating onto both sides of the glass. The coating is applied through a proprietary chemical vapor deposition process, transforming ordinary glass into a high-performing, water-repellent surface. Unique to its class, the FuseCube Express can treat 1 to 5 lites in under 10 minutes and has a minimal footprint (5 by 6 feet) that can meet the demands of both small and larger-sized fabricators, according to the company. The machine also includes a touch screen monitor, built-in evacuation system, multi-run cartridge system, real-time monitoring, and backup systems.
