SEPARATION DEVICE FOR REMOVING A PROFILED ELEMENT FROM A CONVEYING SURFACE, AND EXTRUSION MACHINE PROVIDED WITH SUCH A SEPARATION DEVICE

A separation device (1) intended to separate a profiled element (2) from a conveying surface (3) which conveys the profiled element (2) in a longitudinal direction (L0) comprises a detachment roller (10) which is mounted so as to be able to rotate on a support (11) about a detachment axis (X10), and which is intended to be interposed, in an engagement configuration (C1), between the profiled element (2) and the conveying surface (3) to cause the profiled element (2) to become detached from the conveying surface (3).

SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR MANUFACTURING A GLASS RIBBON

A manufacturing system is disclosed including a conveying apparatus with a plurality of rollers that form a travel path along which a ribbon is configured to be conveyed in a travel direction. The plurality of rollers including at least a tensioning roller having a shaft and a rotation wheel with a plurality of spokes that extend radially outward from the shaft, the plurality of spokes being configured to rotate about a longitudinal axis of the shaft to cause the ribbon to be conveyed in the travel direction. The manufacturing system further including a flow generator configured to direct a flow of fluid to the plurality of spokes to cause rotation of the plurality of spokes.
