The idea of constructing modular rotary glass-blowing machines with 20 or more integrated, individually exchangeable stations or segments has been around for a long time. However, the technological capability to house all mechanical and, in particular, control and drive components in a minimal space was not available until now. German-based Schlemmer Prozess Systeme uses compact Simotion motion controllers in the modular design of rotary glassblowing machines. This results in reduced downtime, higher productivity, and optimized maintenance.
