Tiama creates Hot end Business Unit with new Director

Tiama will also double its dedicated hot end team

Tiama has been working on hot end sensors for several years now. The first system launched by Tiama was the I-Care in 2006. Then Tiama bought the Swedish company Gedevelop in 2012 and integrated the GIA (Gob Image Analyzer) in its hot end product range. In 2014, Tiama introduced the Tiama HOT systems at Glasstec, a full range of sensors dedicated to the hot end.

In order to develop even more this part of the business, and to reinforce its impact on the market, Tiama at the beginning of this year decided to structure itself and to create a Hot end Business Unit with a new director, Michel Carpentier, coming from the glass fields. Tiama will also double its dedicated hot end team and keep developing their skills in this area of expertise to focus even more on customers’ needs and problems solving.

Michel, who is also part of Tiama board, has many years of experience as production manager and plant manager. His global vision of the challenges and needs of the customers are a real strength for Tiama as he will be able to talk with them on their issues and understand them to find the right solutions.

“Glass quality has always been a hot end process consequence, that is the reason why we think it is so important to invest all our energy and competences in providing efficient hot end sensors, equipment and software, helping our customers in their daily production life,” he said.

The creation of this new BU is totally in line with Tiama general strategy. All the hot end systems are participating to the development of Industry 4.0 and will also provide data to the software developed in the Bottero-Tiama joint venture called GlassFORM.ai launched in March 2022.
