Thanks to the new PLC, with a greater and more modern look from a graphical point of view, data transmission, storage of polishing wheel positions and more precision in the calculation of polishing wheel rising according to thickness, speed and inclination for the mitring models are granted. In addition, the glass removal step can be performed in automatic by means of the same new PLC.
