| New technologies for glass finishing and processing make for high production efficiency and create the prerequisites for forward-looking products.
| Last week Safety Glass Experts signed a service contract with Romanian safety glass producer Gerom S.A. Buzau.
| In both the construction of new buildings and the refurbishment of existing ones there is an increasing trend towards construction materials with the highest possible energy efficiency.
| Benefits of the tempered glazing are well known and the tempered glazing is being utilized more and more in many different applications. Manufacturing technology in this area of safety glazing is developing fast.
| Large bus and special vehicle windscreens are produced with gravity bending method. Producing successfully this largest segment of vehicle glazing requires not just suitable equipment, but advanced skills, know-how, knowledge, and quality tooling, to name a few.
| Atomic Layer Deposition is a Chemical Vapor Deposition method based on saturating surface reactions.
| The article written by Mr. László Vákár and presented at the GPD 2009.Air pollution is high on the political agenda worldwide. Emissions have to be reduced.
| The progress obtained so far, and the future trends for the two most successful thin film solar cells, namely CulnGaSe2/CdS and CdTe/CdS, are described in this article.
| Process control is a key factor for speed and efficiency of IS machines. To run a machine at high performance levels it is essential to achieve and maintain stable production conditions.
| While glass manufacturers have little control over raw material costs or finished product orders, process control is one area where even minor improvements can trim production costs, improve product quality, and ultimately increase profits.
| During the past 15 years tempering of bent glass has mainly changed to horizontal methods.
| The current manufacturing of tempered glass is a complex as well as time- and cost-intensive process. Not only long processing times, but also high energy costs have a significant impact.
| When new installations of flat tempering machines suited for architectural glass are discussed today, the option of convection technology is certain to be raised.
| The oscillating horizontal tempering furnace developed in the 1970s has been one of the most significant innovations of recent decades, above all commercially.
| Wired glass is more dangerous than regular glass when it breaks because the exposed wires are razor sharp.
| Glass stairs have become increasingly common during the last few years. This is partly due to architectural fashion, but, mainly, it is a result of considerable improvements that have been made in reference to the strength of glass used for structural purposes.
| The use of transparent glass in conducting electricity using LEDs, short for light emitting diodes, is increasing. LED's are approaching the lifespan of standard building materials, making it cost effective to embed them directly in structural components and architectural finishes.
