AIR FLOTATION ASSEMBLY TABLE Abstract of the Disclosure An air flotation assembly table utilized in the applica- tion of sealant strip material to the perimeter edges of sheet material, the assembly table having a flat work surface upon which the flat sheet material, such as a glass sheet, is placed for applying the sealant strip material to successive perimeter edges thereof. The flat work surface has a plurality of spaced-apart air holes through which air is emitted to float the sheet material slightly thereabove. In combination with the assembly table there is included a vacuum cup assembly for linearly positioning the sheet material so that an edge of the sheet material is presented to the workman, the vacuum cup assembly further including a vacuum cup for adhering to the sheet material, and a lift shaft for raising and lowering the vacuum cup. The vacuum cup assembly is mounted to a carriage which is selectively actuated for linear movement by a band cylinder. A plurality of detectors on the flat work surface are activated or deactivated by sheet material rota- tion, and the detectors interact with the vacuum cup assembly for positioning the sheet material on the table.
