Sternfenster has invested £1million in a Forel automated spacer application line for use with Super Spacer from Edgetech.
The 42-metre machine features an air cushion conveying system, a robotic hot melt applicator and an anti-static bar with a quality scanner and a dedicated quality check station.
The line also accommodates the processing of Georgian bars, further expanding Sternfenster’s design capabilities.
Glass production & stores manager Einars Kalva said: “Super Spacer delivers exceptional thermal performance, resulting in impressive U-values for our windows.
“This translates to significant energy savings for our customers and minimises the risk of condensation on the IGU.
“With the new application line, we’re able to manufacture exceptional units more quickly, efficiently and in higher volumes than before.”
He added: “We’ve received a huge amount of support from Edgetech in recent years, and benefitted from their expertise and excellent customer service.
Edgetech head of sales Tony Palmer replied: “Sternfenster’s far sighted investment positions them perfectly for their future growth, and with Super Spacer® at the core of their production line, they’re well-equipped to deliver outstanding windows and doors for years to come.”
