The glassmaker's daily challenge is to maintain the quality versus productivity balance. Even though a series of high end tools are capable of outstanding defect detection at the cold end, the next frontier is to eliminate as many defects as possible at the hot end. Reaching this goal is also about removing the most important sources of production loss in this relatively unstable and unpredictable area of production. To meet these challenges, Tiama is bringing a dedicated product range called "Tiama HOT systems" to the market. The key idea is to be able to react as quickly as possible directly where real production takes place. While doing so, it is no longer necessary to wait for the article to reach the cold end to obtain information about its quality level.The Tiama HOT systems product range includes three available tools: "Tiama HOT form" is the latest generation of hot end infrared-based imaging systems. "Tiama HOT mass" is a gob management tool; and, "Tiama HOT move" is the latest available product in the range. To read more, please visit: www.tiama.eu
