Forel: Advanced Production Lines for Insulating Glass with Flexible Spacers

Forel’s flexible spacer insulating glass lines represent an advanced technical solution for all those companies wishing to optimize the production of insulating glass units, both for residential and for commercial or industrial construction. Thanks to combined automation, these lines allow the production of high-quality insulating glass panels, while ensuring remarkable flexibility in the management of formats, thicknesses, and types of spacers.

Those working in the window and door sector or in the production of curtain walls will find in these lines a solution to the requirement for greater production efficiency and adaptability to customized requests. Flexible spacer, compared with traditional box spacer systems, makes it easier to produce insulating glass units with special shapes either rectilinear, curved or complex geometries, thus meeting the requests of architects and designers looking for tailor-made solutions for modern and sustainable buildings.

All types of lines offer the possibility to integrate advanced quality control systems.  By utilizing scanners, inspection stations, and supervision software, every production phase is monitored in real time to reduce errors and ensure compliance with the highest standards. Additionally, advanced automation and remote diagnostics allow for prompt intervention during anomalies, minimizing downtime and optimizing maintenance.

Forel lines are designed to adapt both to large-scale production facilities, which require high productivity and advanced automation, and to small workshops aiming to improve their production process. The integration of functions such as automatic reel changeover on the AS HT applicator, the processing of multi-chamber panels (triple, quadruple), and the possibility to insert gas between the panes make these solutions ideal also for those focused on building energy efficiency and compliance with environmental regulations.

Production customization is another strong point: thanks to the lines modular construction, it is possible to configure the system according to specific needs, choosing between High Tech, Essential, or High Speed versions, each line is designed to meet the specific requirements of space, productivity, and budget. This allows production of both large orders and small batches, always maintaining high quality and accuracy standards.

Treated with equal important is staff training and after-sales support: Forel offers dedicated training programs and continuous technical support, key elements to ensuring a smooth transition to automation and to maximize system potential. Remote service assistance allows for quick diagnosis and resolution essential for overall equipment efficiency by minimizing downtime.

The flexible spacer insulating glass lines can be used for various sector demand: from the production of high-performance windows for residential homes, to the creation of large glass surfaces for commercial buildings, including special sectors such as marine, refrigeration, railway, or prefabricated construction. They are the ideal choice for those seeking reliability, performance and innovation, with the ability to quickly respond to market changes and the increasing customized demands of the end user.
