A cleaning carriage 50 is mounted for vertical movement and is also movable transversely of separated panels 10, 12 along tracks 51 for movement of the carriage 50 across the gap between the separated panels 10, 12. The carriage 50 is moved from a raised inactive position to an extended or lowered active position and is then driven across the gap created between the panels 10, 12 to clean and de-burr the end faces 11, 13. Material removed on cleaning is collected in hoppers 52 to prevent contamination in the region of the panels. To clean the upper and lower faces 70, 71 of a panel 10, the panel is led over a lower face cleaning brush 80 and under an upper face cleaning brush 81 at a panel face cleaning station 85. The brushes 80, 81 are provided in the form of belts that brush across the faces 70, 71 of the panel 10 as the panel travels along a conveyer 86. Debris is brushed into inlets 87 of a vacuum removal system 88. <IMAGE> |
