    Last step frame application: Fully automated IG production

    Insulating glass production, an important part of the global glass industry, is constantly evolving. While the production of IG units with flexible (VSA) and thermoplastic (TPA) spacers was already possible in an automated process, rigid spacers continued to pose a challenge for machine developers. LiSEC has now succeeded in realizing this production step without operator interaction. Applying rigid spacers automatically - how does that work?

    Fully automated: Every pane knows its path

    The machines no longer set the pace alone. Increasing automation is expanding the sphere of influence of software-controlled intralogistics. Planning and optimization software is taking the place of a production manager who plans and tracks the route of the panes through the production. The software manages, controls, and monitors the production processes and provides ongoing status feedback. The pacemaker is the sorting buffer, which makes it possible to combine conflicting priorities in production. How does today's unmanned production work?

    Data as a chance for the production of the future

    In today's business world, it is not enough for manufacturing companies to simply have well-filled order books. Rather, they need to ensure that their production facilities are used efficiently and consistently deliver high-quality products. The key to this lies in the data generated by the production equipment. Companies that manage to interpret this data in a meaningful way and draw the right conclusions from it have a clear competitive advantage over their rivals.

    lis.qualitypass - Traceable quality in insulating glass production

    Quality plays a decisive role in insulating glass production. Customers rely on the properties of the products remaining the same and tolerances defined in various standards being adhered to. Production companies can only meet these requirements if they monitor the conditions under which the products are manufactured and take action if necessary. If quality defects occur, it is particularly important to be able to trace how they came about in order to define the necessary measures. With lis.qualitypass, LiSEC provides its customers with a tool that significantly increases traceability in insulating glass production.
