Cutting lines

Anticipating the detection of structural defects on unwashed float glass is essential for any modern float glass cutting line, reducing waste, energy consumption, machinery wear and avoiding line stops caused by non-compliant sheets. This approach sets a standard for the flat glass industry, applicable across a wide range of sectors, from architectural and automotive glazing to refrigeration, furniture and appliance manufacturing.

Deltamax relies on two complementary technologies for this stage of production: Opt anticipates the identification of unrecoverable defects before cutting, working even on unwashed sheets to catch structural issues early, while EVO combines multiple quality checks, including defect detection, screen printing and dimensional control, for processors who need a more comprehensive inspection on the same line.

Whether the end application is architectural glazing, automotive glass, refrigeration units, furniture or appliances, optimizing this stage of production reduces downstream scrap and keeps the float glass cutting line running smoothly, without the delays caused by defects discovered only after cutting.
