The tin bath is the heart of every float glass production line; it is a decisive quality factor. Consequently, at CNUD EFCO GFT, it is always tailored to each customer’s requirements. Using process simulation, we are able to extract the ultimate in yield and quality.

The annealing process is a decisive factor for quality, productivity, and efficiency. With our innovative systems, you can keep it fully under control: the latest technological control applications monitor your process at all times, prevent production losses and help to minimize downtime.

Environment protection and economic efficiency can go hand in hand if the right solutions are used. With our innovative systems for waste heat recovery, you can make your glass production more energy-efficient and at the same time create a new source of energy for your company.

For a float glass plant to operate reliably and at peak performance, it needs a steady supply of energy and other media like natural gas, electricity, inert gas, tin and much more.

Our technology conveys glass gently and precisely – even over distances greater than 100 meters or 110 yards. What’s more, our conveying solutions operate smoothly and have long service lives too.

Cutting technology lies at the heart of the cold end of a float glass production line. Combined with the breaking system, the cutting heads, force-regulated controls and an intelligent optimization system form a superbly efficient unit.

As a glass manufacturer, a stable production process is more important than ever these days. Grenzebach’s inspection and measurement procedures stand for advanced control methods and top product quality.

For the glass line’s stacking process to work well, it relies on a good sorting process. We can develop a smart system for you so that conveying and stacking are a class act.

Architectural glass showcases buildings. Grenzebach’s PVD coating technology turns the raw material into an energy-efficient component. PVD large-area glass coating is a core technology that meets requirements in terms of functionality and appearance.

Digitalization is opening the door to a spectacular future of glass production. Be a part of the journey with our digitalization solution for tomorrow’s glass production.
