Making the most of available space is a key priority in modern manufacturing. This also includes the removal of glass waste. The challenge to handle glass waste effectively increases when multiple automated cutting systems for float and laminated glass are in use. By focusing on innovative waste management solutions, companies can avoid manual production interruptions for waste management while saving valuable space in the production hall.

Spontaneous breakage, splintering, pronounced over- and undercuts: The rising use of laminated glass in insulating glass production, coupled with inconsistent raw material quality, poses a significant challenge for maintaining continuous, high-quality production. Discover how LiSEC overcomes these obstacles with its selective infrared heating (SIR) technology — and how you can benefit from it.

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?

Assembly is a time-critical process in laminated glass production, and requires the most time, since manual processes often used.

The autoclave is the last step in the production process which assembles the prepared components. For this very reason, high quality and the lowest possible number of rejects are crucial, because they mean…
