, Glaston

When the markets and industries keep changing, it is good to keep the essentials in mind – trusting the originals when choosing technology providers and partners to support you every step of the way. At this year’s Glass South America, we will be showcasing some of our latest technology developments. Below are just a few of the most exciting innovations you can expect to see firsthand.

Insulating glass manufacturing:

Glaston COMFORT BOX – reliable insulating glass manufacturing line

With the COMFORT BOX insulating glass manufacturing line, we offer a high-quality IG line for the manufacturing of gas-filled IG units of rectangular and shaped formats. Working with the line is comfortable, reliable, and precise providing the ideal entry solution for industrial insulating glass production of gas-filled IG units. At the same time, the COMFORT BOX is a perfect solution for companies searching for an inexpensive opportunity to expand their insulating glass production capacity. Up to 800 gas-filled insulating glass units can be produced in rectangular or shaped formats on the reliable line per shift.

Glaston COMFORT’SEALER – an automatic sealing robot

Glaston has a solution for those who no longer want to seal IG units manually. The automatic sealing robot COMFORT’SEALER transforms Glaston COMFORT BOX into a fully automated insulating glass production line.

COMFORT’SEALER offers high material dosing accuracy as its superiority. The gear pump dosing technology allows the solution to precisely determine the sealing depth and width. It then applies the exact volume of the sealing material required.

Glaston TPS® – the most flexible IG manufacturing

TPS® is the most modern, flexible and efficient solution for producing insulating glass units and multilayer solar panels.

By applying Thermo Plastic Spacer material directly onto the glass plate, TPS® simplifies production significantly. It eliminates any need to stock different spacer profiles and connectors. Plus, changes to spacer width can be made during the process without any loss of time.

Invented by Glaston, TPS® has already been installed at over 170 glass processing facilities worldwide.

Flat glass tempering:

Glaston RC Series – easy processing for any glass type and thickness

From shower doors to architectural glass, the Glaston RC Series offers effortless tempering for all glass types.

The RC Series is very easy to operate, requiring minimal effort for smooth and effective processing. Thanks to the RC Series’ accurate and intelligent heating system, the line maintains impeccable glass quality even at increased production rates.

Ensuring uninterrupted production, the RC Series boasts the highest uptime and can be upgraded, if necessary, to meet evolving future processing needs. It also facilitates easy maintenance and guarantees the best availability of spares and support in the market.

The line is configurable to meet diverse capacity needs, providing a tailored solution for your specific requirements.

In flat glass laminating:

Glaston ProL flat glass lamination line provides unprecedented flexibility for mixed production. The ProL convection heating chamber makes switching between glass types and different glass sandwiches easier than ever. The whole line – from glass handling to the latest PVB cutting technology – has been designed for flexible operations.

Glaston ProL-zone, a full convection laminating furnace is available as an upgrade for any laminating line model on the market. It is designed to be a quick and cost-efficient modification for your existing laminating line. The upgrade replaces damaged or outdated heating chamber.

Automotive glass processing:

Glaston CHAMP EVO – an evolution in automotive glass pre-processing

Glaston CHAMP EVO represents the latest evolution in the CHAMP automotive glass pre-processing line.

The grinding machine of the newest CHAMP EVO boasts considerably higher precision. Its energy-saving linear drives significantly reduce maintenance costs and wear, while a freely moveable glass holding system ensures shorter changeover times.

Moreover, the line features lighter and better-optimized moving parts, such as the cutting bridge and the grinding table, along with many other technological improvements.

Glaston MATRIX EVO: The best technology for tomorrow’s automotive glass

The new Glaston MATRIX EVO automatic bending furnace is now available to revolutionize the way automotive windshields and sunroofs are bent to perfection. The line is specifically designed to meet the most challenging requirements in today’s automotive industry. It offers the best optical quality for applications, such as advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), head-up displays (HUD) and coated glasses when combined with the most complex shapes.
