Production sequence

Fix fabrication details before production.

Cutting, edgework, holes, notches and cut-outs must be completed before heat treatment. Downstream processes must then be coordinated around glass type, coating, dimensions and required appearance.

  1. 01

    Technical review

    Confirm drawings, make-up, tolerances, process compatibility and production sequence.

  2. 02

    Primary fabrication

    Cut, grind, polish, drill, notch, wash and inspect the individual glass panes.

  3. 03

    Heat treatment

    Temper or heat-strengthen the glass where required before assembly processes.

  4. 04

    Assembly

    Laminate, insulate, print, bend or combine the processed panes as specified.

  5. 05

    Final control

    Inspect dimensions, appearance, identification, documentation and packing.
