The company is also a longterm\u00a0customer for Glaston since purchasing its first tempering furnace in 1994. While refreshing its name and branding,\u00a0Metro Performance Glass also chose to upgrade one of its older Glaston ProE furnaces with the latest Glaston iControL automation system to gain an advanced approach for controlling the line&#8217;s glass processing production. Not only does\u00a0iControL help the company produce higher quality at lower costs, it also extends the life of the furnace.<\/p>\n<p>&#8221;We see the Glaston iControL as an opportunity to upgrade an existing machine\u00a0or to extend the life of any machine. It allows\u00a0us to produce a higher quality at lower costs.\u00a0We&#8217;d definitely recommend it to others,\u00a0and we&#8217;re currently considering iControL upgrades for our other machines,&#8221; says\u00a0Geoff Rasmusen, General Manager Operations, Metro Performance Glass.<\/p>\n<p>At the start of 2014, the company also\u00a0installed three Glaston Integrated Scanners\u00a0(SCA), which are used to measure and\u00a0visualize temperature distribution for every\u00a0batch at the exit of the furnace. Geoff is\u00a0very pleased already with the results when\u00a0it comes to using the scanners to improve\u00a0process quality and yield.\u00a0Not only has Metro Performance Glass\u00a0upgraded its image, through the iControL automation system and the addition of the\u00a0Integrated Scanners (SCA), it has upgraded\u00a0its product quality production quite clearly as\u00a0well.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-10007\" src=\"https:\/\/glaston.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/Wellington-Factory-with-Geoff_web-e1489499708647-960x427.jpg\" alt=\"icontrol automation upgrade at Metro Performance Glass, NZ\" width=\"905\" height=\"540\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Metro Performance Glass upgrades with Glaston iControL\u2122 \" href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/1qJwdx7\" target=\"_blank\">More about the project\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Producing higher quality at lower costs Established 26 years ago, Metro Performance Glass is the newly upgraded brand name for a well-respected glass\u00a0company that until just recently has been known throughout New Zealand as Metro GlassTech.
