Abstract

A stack of rectangular workpieces to be peripherally bonded to one another, such as a unit of two glass plates and an interposed spacer frame, is transported along a generally U-shaped horizontal path having two parallel runs and one transverse course constituted by a number of active or passive conveyor stages. A pair of power presses with complementarily oriented L-shaped jaws are inserted in the two runs, each press acting upon the leading and proximal edges of the stack. A control station common to the two runs is inserted between the two presses and carries an adhesive injector having a nozzle head alternately trainable upon a stack on one or the other press. A conveyor stage in each run, immediately downstream of the respective press, is bodily shiftable between that press and an adjoining stage to give the adhesive injector at the control station access to the press side clamping the leading edge of the stack.
