Capabilities

Spotless. Every Pass.

Self-adjusting brushes, dual air knives, closed-loop water — production-line cleaning for every glass type.

Direct On-Line Integration

Mechanically linked to the edging machine so glass moves straight from edging into washing without a manual transfer. Keeps panels on a single continuous conveyor path.

Automatic Thickness Adjustment

Self-adjusting brush pressure and conveyor speed accommodate mixed IGU batches from 3–19mm without manual changeover. One setup handles every panel.

Consistent IG Output

Delivers streak-free, spot-free glass directly into IG sealing stations, ensuring consistent seal quality and reducing rework from contamination defects.

PLC-Controlled Synchronization

PLC connectivity with the adjacent edger ensures synchronized speeds and prevents bottlenecks or glass stacking at the interface between the two machines.

Closed-Loop Water System

Self-circulating water with 50μm + 10μm filtration across all zones. Automatic dosing, level control, and overflow protection keep water quality high and consumption low.

Low-E Safe Brushes

Standard soft nylon or polyester brush sets clean coated, Low-E, and online-coated glass safely — no upgrade needed for sensitive glass types.

What It Washes

From IG lines to tempering furnaces — spot-free glass for every downstream process.

IGU Production Lines

Direct on-line washing before sealing

The IGU Line Washer sits directly ahead of the IG assembly line, delivering clean, dry glass straight into the sealing station. Automatic thickness adjustment handles mixed IGU batches seamlessly.

Maintenance

Keep It Running

Five essential maintenance practices to maximize brush life, water quality, and drying performance.

Inspect all brush sets for wear or glazing. Clean glass particles from rollers and tanks. Verify water cooling and filtration flow. Check air-knife pressure and blower operation.

Verify automatic thickness adjustment across the full 3–19mm range. Calibrate brush pressure sensors. Check conveyor speed synchronization with adjacent edger.

Verify PLC communication with adjacent line equipment. Check all sensor readings (thickness, speed, pressure). Clean touchscreen HMI. Back up all programs and configurations.

Inspect all brush spindle bearings for play or noise. Check air-knife alignment and blower performance. Inspect conveyor drive motor and rollers. Check all electrical connections.

Complete machine calibration using precision measurement tools. Verify all axes, brush concentricity, air-knife pressure, water filtration, and safety systems. Full CE compliance check.

FAQ

Common Questions

Everything you need to know about the Horizontal Glass Washing & Drying Machine.

Yes — the automatic thickness adjustment system detects each panel's thickness (3–19mm) and adjusts brush pressure and conveyor speed accordingly. Mixed batches with different glass thicknesses run seamlessly without manual changeover.

The IGU Line Washer is mechanically linked to the upstream edging machine via a shared roller conveyor system. PLC connectivity ensures synchronized speeds so glass flows directly from edging into washing without manual transfer or bottlenecks.

The standard configuration handles up to ~3,300mm wide glass — covering most architectural and IGU panel sizes. The G-IGU-W3 Enterprise extends to wider formats on request.

Yes — standard soft nylon or polyester brush sets are Low-E safe and handle coated, soft-coat Low-E, and online-coated glass without any upgrade. The gentle brush pressure protects delicate coatings.
