Glaston is set to make history with the simultaneous completion of several major product development projects that enable glass processors to make better quality glass with improved efficiency. Recent innovations include the advanced iControL automation system with accompanying online iLooK quality control, the Vortex Pro convection control upgrade, the new entry-level RC200 furnace and the FC500 to respond to the growing demand for low-E glasses with latest technological updates. The RC200 is designed specifically for those companies that are just starting in glass tempering or are looking to expand their business. The FC500 furnace sets a new trend in power consumption and brings the total consumption near to theoretical minimum. The iControL flat tempering automation system is lading the way to help the glass processing industry reach higher levels in production. The Vortex Pro is Glaston's latest convection control system to improve energy savings and heating uniformity glass processors can achieve with clear and low-E glass. The control itself is designed as part of the system for direct advantages.
