At VITRUM 2025, in Hall 9 – Stand D13/E12, Glaston will present a comprehensive range of smart technologies and integrated solutions that redefine glass processing across tempering, laminating, insulating and mobility glass sectors.
Glass tempering
The new Glaston FC Series E tempering line combines flexibility and energy efficiency with the Glaston Bora convection system for precise heating. It supports all glass types and features advanced automation for consistent, high-quality output. The Roller Heat Control (RHC) ensures uniform roller temperatures, reducing defects and energy use.
Other advancements in Glaston tempering technology
- Autopilot: Fully automated solution for mixed production, adjusting heating and cooling based on glass type, size and load to boost efficiency and eliminate operator dependency.
- Online Stress Calculation: Real-time, data-driven monitoring of hardening results for consistent quality and enhanced safety.
- Glass Temperature Imaging: Ensures accurate Low-E glass temperature control for energy-efficient production without compromising quality.
- Anisotropy Control: Lowers anisotropy levels by up to 50 percent using advanced airflow and heating control.
- Adaptive Quench: Automatically adjusts cooling zones to match glass load length, reducing energy use and carbon footprint while maintaining productivity.
All the above features are also available as upgrades.
Glass laminating
Glaston ProL lamination technology offers flexibility for mixed production. The new ProL SPEED edition increases efficiency by up to 40 percent with full automation for handling, foil placement and trimming. The patented ProL Convection Control enhances output with structural laminates like SentryGlas®, while the ProL-zone upgrade replaces infrared heating with convection, reducing energy consumption by at least 50 percent.
Insulating glass manufacturing
Glaston ULTRA TPS® introduces a patented method for producing thin triple IGUs, with centre glass as thin as 0.5 millimetres. These units match the thickness of standard double IGUs but offer superior thermal performance. The line also produces quadruple IGUs with thin glass.
Glaston MUNTIN’MASTER automates muntin placement, eliminating manual steps and increasing precision and cost-efficiency.
Mobility glass processing
Glaston CHAMP EVO is the latest in pre-processing for mobility glass, offering high precision, energy-efficient drives and faster changeovers. Glaston MATRIX EVO, an automatic bending furnace, delivers top optical quality for automotive glass applications like ADAS and HUD.
Automation and upgrades
Glaston Batch Optimisation uses robotics to create the most efficient batch patterns, maximising furnace bed use and production capacity.
To support long-term performance, Glaston also offers a comprehensive portfolio of upgrades and lifecycle services.
