Joining forces; technology innovations
Belgium based Cnud-Efco and German GFT have joined forces to
introduce a groundbreaking innovation in the glass industry. Cnud-Efco
has a long-standing reputation in annealing all types of glass, while GFT
is a young and ingenious tin-bath design company. Today, their joint
knowhow and expertise introduces a new and cutting-edge technology
that’s set to be a game-changer. Industry 4.0 needs no introduction, with
times and challenges rapidly evolving. Tools for transparent processing,
increased efficiency and better benchmarking are the industry’s holy grail.

Automation software
That’s why Cnud-Efco GFT decided to collaborate with Siemens on the
development of automation software that stabilizes and optimizes the
forming and annealing process. The idea is growing out to be the long-
awaited, fully automated solution for tin-bath and Lehr. CEO Géraldine
Seynaeve: “By combining our expertise with the skills of the people at
Siemens, we’ve put the right team in place. They’re working hard on the
realization of this project. An additional partner is being identified as
we speak, to test the automation at a real Float-plant without negatively
impacting the process.”
