Isotronic Surface Control | Fully Integrated Quality Control Solution

Judging a glass by its cover

Glass manufacturers often struggle with undetected surface defects that compromise product quality and customer satisfaction. Traditional manual inspection methods are time- and personnel-consuming, prone to errors, and unable to adapt to different production needs. Cosmetic defects can provide insights into what is at fault for a non-ideal production setup. Without identification and potential classification, glass producers cannot target areas of improvement. Our solution integrates:

Modern UI that integrates a touch screen, is operator friendly and is completely configurable
Machine Learning to more accurately detect and classify defects based on company specific rules and standards
Improved Quality Assurance by pointing out inefficiencies in production, you can improve, fix or replace parts that are leading to surface defects

Defect Detection

Our system allows for sub-pixel accuracy up to 0.1mm x 0.1mm

Defect Classification

Utilising a rule based algorithm supported by machine learning, our system allows for categorizing and classifying defects to target inefficiencies in production

Image Stabilization

To handle unavoidable handling inaccuracies, we employ algorithms to stabilise images, reducing errors and enhancing detection accuracy

Maximisation of Detection Surface

Our product goes above and beyond by maximising the detection surface to commonly unstable areas that have been notoriously hard to check

Other benefits

Our print control system also provides the following benefits

Powerful Software Product

Surface detection seamlessly integrates with dimensional control, implementing cutting-edge algorithms to measure with sub-pixel accuracy

Customer Centric Development

Our software is iteratively developed with close cooperation of customers. It is easy and straightforward to be used by anyone

Multiple Setup Possibilities

Our setup is designed to fit most production lines. We also offer specialized solutions for special cases.

Customisable Detection Parameters

The system can be tailored to specific needs, allowing for particular inspections, e.g., different shapes or types of glasses. This flexibility ensures that the system can be optimised for different production environments and defect types.

No False Positives

The system intelligently distinguishes between significant defects and natural variances, preventing unnecessary waste and maximising efficiency.

Cloud Interconnectivity

Benefit from real-time analyses and statuses of your surface control systems through our cloud-based system

Configured geometry checks for a rolled glass product, including Eccentricity, Shoulder Height, Opening Diameter, and Diameter Head

Product Applications

Our surface control system is integrated into the following parts of the production process:

Cold End Inspection: Perform checks before or after the annealing oven and combine with dimensional inspection
Clean Room Inspection: When sizing constraints don't allow for an inspection system after the annealing oven, a clean room inspection system can also perform the necessary dimensional controls
Central: View analytics in real time and see trends in cosmetic defects to find inefficiencies in production and improve quality assurance
