Glazelock Shims Inc. has been a manufacturer of structural plastic shims since 1997. The company was invented by a window installer and aims to develop shims that reduce material and labor costs, while being secure and stable. During the show, the company will promote its pre-scored shims that are easier to break off than traditional wood shims. The shims eliminate the need to cut or to score and are an inexpensive option for companies.

Introducing the launch of GRADUEL-H, the glass with acid-etched gradual opacity, now in a horizontal format: a more profitable and economical format, with the same quality and beauty as the known Graduel.

For the first time, the gradient from translucent to transparent runs parallel to the short side of the sheet (88 inches or 94 1/2 inches), and so, better processing with less waste and therefore better profitability.

It's been a sought-after demand from our customers for a long time, and now it has been achieved by SEVASA's R&D.

The new Graduel-H offers:

• Short transition, maintaining the unique Graduel glass quality
• Does not show fingerprints, requires less maintenance than other glasses
• High resistance to scratches and stains in the treated translucent area
• High durability. Ideal for public spaces and high traffic areas.

IDEAL to use both indoors (shower and bathroom screens, office enclosures, partitions, dividers, doors) and outdoors (balconies, façades, canopies).

SAC-845

The SAC-845 automates the application of screen mesh to a pre-assembled screen frame. The SAC-845 utilizes barcode scanning or direct ERP input to identify the screen frame, automatically choose and apply the correct screen mesh, insert the screen spline, and trim excess perimeter screen mesh. Estimated typical cycle time for a 24- by 36-inch window screen frame is approximately 35 seconds, including all handling.

Overview

• 0.140” to 0.200” screen spline diameter
• 2 position screen mesh applicator to optimize utilization and reduce scrap
• Typical .010” thickness, polyester, nylon or PVC screen mesh
• Input via HMI screen or via bar code scan
• Minimum frame size 15” x 15”
• Maximum frame size 30” x 60”, larger sizes available upon demand
• Typical frame profile size, minimum- .375” x 1.125”, maximum- .5” x 1.125”.140” to .200” screen spline diameter

Notes

• Model SAC-855 can accommodate larger sizes such as 48″ x 96″ patio doors as well as smaller window sizes

Greater efficiency and automation for tempering furnaces

“Tempered glass, as perfect as glass can be” is what HEGLA-TaiFin aspires to achieve. The company is known for convection technology and closely controllable heating zones with qualities much higher than the industry standard. “We have one of the best tempering furnaces on the market and at GlassBuild, we now want to show what is possible when strong partners work together,” said Teemu Kolka, Manager of HEGLA TaiFin. The optimal bedload is determined with bed optimization from HEGLA-HANIC. For maximum automation, the glass can be put together with automated batch creation from HEGLA – no operator required. Through “de-batching,” the batch can be separated again. Optional quality scanners monitor quality and, in conjunction with the intelligent optimization of HEGLA New Technology, they adjust the furnace recipes if necessary. Thanks to this holistic view, using such a system increases total throughput significantly and saves a great deal of energy.
