Fix your thermal process control and reduce the risk of massive material losses in the glass industry
A major challenge in the glass industry is to reduce the likelihood of errors at every stage of the manufacturing process to prevent small errors from developing into major problems and potentially causing massive damage to production.
You can reduce the risk of massive material losses by taking action today. With our customized systems, we want to leave inaccurate thermal process control in the past. By supporting precise operation of your cooling sections, our systems aim to take a proactive approach with state-of-the-art software applications, control interfaces and QA systems to reduce the risk of material breakage or quality defects. Additionally, the AI integration capability enables existing systems to be digitized and simulated as well as the direct integration of the latest AI algorithms.
Software and Hardware, a modular all-in-one solution
To provide a complete solution, our EC150 float glass monitoring system consist of a system software developed in-house, and one or more IR line scanners that are distributed across the sections of the float glass system.
One of our main objectives is to obtain the most accurate and complete thermal image possible, including section profiles of the glass surface, integrating data for temperature and width. The EC150 system detects anomalies in real-time and optionally communicates directly with the system controls.
Individual, continuously expandable interfaces allow further direct data exchange with higher-level systems and provide support in digitalization topics such as dashboard systems, digital twins or process simulations.
Other applications for Low-E glass? Our solution adapts to your needs!
One of the outstanding features of our software is the flexibility to automate emissivity adjustment when processing Low-E glass. This ensures precise monitoring across a range of glass types and enables manufacturers to guarantee optimum quality regardless of the application or surface.
The modular EC150 system concept allows the software functionality to be upgraded and additional sensors or process data to be integrated at any time. We don't know where technology will take us in the next few years, but we guarantee that our modular system solutions will remain upgradeable using future technologies. Rest assured, your investment will be secure and sustainable for years to come.
