In addition to sponsoring the 17th annual GlassBuild America trade show in Atlanta, GA September 17-19, GED Integrated Solutions (GED) will be showcasing highly-automated window and glass fabrication equipment at exhibitor booth #1935. Among the lineup of equipment is exciting new technology that will change the way window and door fabricators do business.
NEW! RoboFlow™ PT
WinTrax™ Intelligent Logistics
WinTrax simplifies the customer’s ability to track and quickly find window assemblies, reducing the number of lost windows and tracking reports verify where windows are and signals an alert when something is out of sequence. Using a web-based viewer, reports can be accessed on any device with an internet browser, making this system flexible and user-friendly.
RoboSeal™ Gas Fill – Close – Seal
The first fully automated, robotic quick gas fill, close and seal system in the industry, RoboSeal efficiently finishes the assembly process of both double and triple pane Intercept® insulating glass units (IIGUs). With the ability to produce six (6) units / minute for double IIGU and three (3) units / minute for triple IIGU, this system handles IIGUs up to 72” by 100” with glass as thick as 6mm.
SmartExtruder+™ Sealant and Desiccant Application System
Main features include: encoder-based dispensing; new control platform with faster scan rate and response time; HMI directly coupled with PLC; servo controlled spacer width adjustment interfaced with control system; side heads with individual start/stop controls and alignment adjustment; and storage reservoir added to pneumatic circuit.
Intercept® 2.5 Spacer Fabrication System
Quickly change between multiple spacer material types, including Intercept ULTRA Stainless, ThinPlate and BlackLine, with the capability to produce spacers at a rate of up to 85 feet per minute, achieving up to 8 spacers a minute (without muntins).
Not only does the 2.5 allow for “Just-in-Time” production in the order required without operator errors, it also eliminates internal muntin grid misalignment with precise notching and snap-in muntin clips.
The control system provides significant hardware reduction, making operations and maintenance trouble-free. A new laser marking system enables customized spacer etching. Patented technology ensures the integrity of the 4th corner identical to first 3 corners, for a consistent product.
