VIPROTRON Showcases Cutting-Edge Inspection Solutions at GlassBuild America 2025

The company will present a comprehensive portfolio of inspection systems developed to enhance accuracy, reliability, and efficiency in glass manufacturing. Among the highlights are the innovative BOW SENSOR and TEMPER SCANNER 5D, alongside VIPROTRON’s well-established DEFECT SCANNER and EDGE SCANNER product lines.

BOW SENSOR: Contactless, Real-Time Curvature Measurement

VIPROTRON’s BOW SENSOR sets a new benchmark in high-speed glass curvature measurement. Operating entirely without physical contact, the system delivers consistent precision even at line speeds up to 60 meters per minute. Compatible with all glass types and coatings, it provides real-time measurements without interrupting production. This instant feedback enables manufacturers to maintain tight tolerances, minimize waste, and ensure consistent end-product quality, all while optimizing process efficiency.

TEMPER SCANNER 5D: Advanced Quality Control in Tempering Furnaces

Another key innovation VIPROTRON will unveil at the show is the TEMPER SCANNER 5D, designed to address quality variations during high-capacity furnace operation. Combining an advanced optical measurement system with VIPROTRON’s proven linear camera technology, the TEMPER SCANNER 5D delivers a complete, real-time analysis of glass quality.

The system measures distortions, detects anisotropies, identifies haze, and locates scratches with exceptional accuracy.
Armed with this data, operators can fine-tune furnace parameters, reduce rejects, and ensure consistent product quality throughout production.

Comprehensive Inspection with Complementary Systems

In addition to its flagship solutions, VIPROTRON will present its DEFECT SCANNER family, including the 3D QUALITY SCANNER, ECO SCANNER, and QUALITY CHECKER.

These systems are engineered to detect inclusions, bubbles, scratches, and edge chips, providing a complete inspection process from cutting and tempering to final quality control.

The 3D SCANNER in particular guarantees superior precision, especially in edge inspection and control, ensuring that every piece meets the highest standards.

A Commitment to Innovation and Excellence

With its ongoing commitment to innovation, precision, and customer success, VIPROTRON continues to strengthen its reputation as a global leader in glass inspection technology.

Visitors can explore these solutions at Booth 14016 in the South Building at GlassBuild America 2025, where VIPROTRON experts will demonstrate how the company’s technologies transform production challenges into intelligent, data-driven solutions, driving efficiency, quality, and performance in the glass industry.
