Abstract

In a method for processing a laminate, which comprises at least one solid plate, particularly a glass plate, prior to a lamination step at least one location marking is applied to the solid plate and at least one distance and/or angle value of the solid plate is determined with respect to the location marking. Following the lamination step, the laminate is processed, wherein the laminate and a processing tool are automatically positioned relative to each other as a function of the location marking and the at least one distance and/or angle value. Prior to lamination, the solid plate can be easily measured, the edge thereof can be detected both mechanically (such as by a sensor) and without contact (such as optically, by way of a camera), and common, in particular automated, methods can be used for measuring. Following lamination, which makes a detection of the edges of the solid plate more difficult, processing can be carried out, supported by the applied location markings and the detected distance and/or angle value (or a plurality of such values). It is therefore no longer necessary to still detect the edge of the solid plate after lamination.
