The Flying Flat provides an effective vertical side polishing machine in a compact package, only 1.8m x 1.8m x 4.9m and 3,700 kg. Thanks to specific patented designs, productivity is much higher than with similar machines using only standard tools. A waterproof, multi-control membrane keyboard coupled with brand new ergonomic coverings realized in composite thermo-molded material assure complete lack of rust and color stability and sustainability of the machine. The multifunction spindle is able to do water-drip, calibration and beveling of the edges. Mechanical parts are kept easily and readily accessible via large, pneumatic opening doors. A fully guided belt helps to maintain a high level of stability during vertical work.
