Lead Applicator Machinery

Machinery which automates the process of lead application to glass will soon be available. The Decorex machine series, which is about to start manufacturer trials, will operate at twice the speed of a manual operative and will produce perfect lead layouts every time, it is claimed. The new machine is produced under a joint agreement between Regalead, R&R - better known for its Georgian Bar manufacturing equipment - and Cadram (Computer Aided Design Resin & Machines). Regalead and Cadram will together be promoting and marketing the machine in the UK. Regalead has already commissioned the manufacture of a new spool to carry 100 meters of lead instead of the standard 50 meters, which will reduce spool changeover time.
