The SSP-A sorting and storage buffer is specifically designed for loading or unloading the CombiFin processing line. It consists of a sturdy base frame with guide rails and a torsion-resistant monoblock frame with storage compartments, which are divided by a grid bar system. The frame moves along the axis, and a movably stored transport carrier specifically operates the selected storage compartment. The storage compartments are tilted by 7 degrees — suitable for the processing machine. A safety fence and a flexibly mountable control terminal are also part of the system.

The SSP-A serves as an intelligent buffer for optimal utilization of the processing machine. Stored glasses are clearly identified and checked in advance. It is operated via an 18.5" TFT color display with synchronized input to the following machine. The necessary interface is included. Depending on the configuration, the SSP is controlled for loading or unloading. Data can be imported directly or via an ERP system. Different formats and glass thicknesses as well as special shapes are possible.

The SSP sorting and storage buffer is of interest to all companies that have continuous production and have a vertical production plant. The SSP ensures that there are no unnecessary waiting times or downtimes, for example because there is no operator at the system or is employed for other tasks. The performance of the processing machine is optimized and increased. Through structured operation, the SSP optimizes the entire workflow in the environment.

The SSP-A sorting and storage buffer ensures optimal use of processing machines and prevents unnecessary and unplanned waiting times. The following disk is loaded onto the processing machine immediately after the inflow path has been cleared. The data is synchronized between the two systems and each system (depending on the available software connection) can also report the status to higher-level systems.
