On over 1600m² of floor space, HEGLA is exhibiting machines and entire systems in live operation. Glasstec visitors can once again see and experience technology at close hand.

New ProLam - a flexible combined solutionAmong the innovations and developments presented at the HEGLA booth, there will be the new ProLam – a flexible combined solution for cutting float glass and laminated safety glass.Innovations include a modified cutting bridge and optimised processes. Additional features and equipment enhance the applications of ProLam, which is one of HEGLA's best-selling systems.

The infeed table now has low-maintenance electromagnetic linear drives that impress with high acceleration and accuracy of the cutting bridge when cutting float glass and during edge deletion.

HEGLA can be found at the Glasstec in hall 14, floor space 56

Our preferred partner Bystronic glass, with whom we maintain a long-term cooperative partnership, is located right in front of us.

"Our booths are located side by side and goes on to show how well our cooperation really functions. Customers who wish to obtain comprehensive information on cutting and insulating glass solutions benefit from the combined expertise of both companies", points out Managing Director Manfred Vollbracht.
