SCA – Integrated Infrared Scanner

Measuring the outgoing glass temperature distribution


Three reasons for choosing the Integrated Scanner (SCA)

1.

Improved glass quality and yield

2.

Highly detailed production and quality monitoring

3.

Instant feedback enables fast process corrections

High quality with a wide range of specialty glass


The role of measuring is increasingly important, as new glass applications, such as safety glass or solar panels, emerge. While glass is becoming a more visible part of our environment, quality issues are also growing in importance.

The Integrated Scanner (SCA) represents a simple and reliable way to improve process quality and yield. It measures and visualizes temperature distribution on the processed batch at the furnace exit.
