GLASS DÉCOR
NEW PRODUCTION LINES
Glass Décor has announced the commissioning of two
new production lines by Fermac (Italy) and Madag
Find the one (Switzerland) at the Glass Décor decoration factory in
Orekhovo-Zuevo, Moscow Region.
Investing in new production lines is an important step
you’re looking for in improving and updating production processes and in
accelerating the implementation of current and urgent
orders for customers of Glass Décor.
The line of fully automatic decoration of bottles

produced by Fermac, Italy is already 10th in the
others out there
account, installed at the Glass Décor factory, and the
second line with numerical program control. This
screen printing machine is designed for decoration of
glass products of complex shape, as well as decoration
on the sides of the bottle. This is the only printing
machine in the world equipped with a CNC control
system to synchronize five digital coordinates during
printing, including vertical movement, stencil movement
and product rotation. Such control allows the specialists
of Glass Decor to accurately control the printing
process on glass bottles of any shape – round, square,
oval, conical and irregularly shaped bottles. The work
of the technological line is controlled by a processor,
taking into account the shape and size of the bottle to
be decorated.
The new production line is equipped with an additional
station for printing with UV inks with the same curing
of paint by 360°. For thermoplastic paints there is
an optical infrared pyrometer with the function of
automatically maintaining the set temperature. A special
camera is installed in front of the unloading station to
control the print quality. This system has a friendly user
interface and stores a reference sample of the decorated
bottle in memory. The installation operator selects the
required number of inspection zones (depending on
the complexity of the scenery) and sets the required
tolerances in each decoration area. The computer
system compiles and stores statistical reports. The
modem connection with the manufacturer – Fermac –
guarantees an online solution of any issues arising in
