Float / Flat Glass

It doesn't matter if release agents are applied by using a nozzle- or a roller system or if liquid corrosion protection is applied by generating a fine mist by a roller - Grafotec’s application systems are specifically customized to be integrated perfectly into any existing float and flat glass production line – worldwide.
Dry Powder RElease Agent Application

The APx Series (nozzle system) and the PDS (roller-based system) are available for the dry application of release agents and interleaving powder.

Our Advanced Powder System (APx) – enable multi-purpose application in all float and float glass production lines and provide a consistent atomized spray and therefore an excellent protection of your glass. The APx system is easy to operate and provides outstanding ease of cleaning and enduring/sustained minimized maintenance costs.

With our PDS for applying float and float glass with all separator agents currently on the market, float and float glass finishing reaches a new quality standard. Our roller system increases the reliability of the production process and significantly reduces maintenance costs.

Liquid Application of Corrosion Protection

The LA C-PROTECTION made by Grafotec Spray Systems is the world-leading application system and has been specially developed for applying corrosion protection liquids to float and flat glass. The nozzleless spray system provides fine and uniform application. The innovative design enables a 24/7 production without interruption for maintenance work.

DEDICATED TO INNOVATION

Our high-quality application systems are specially adapted to the needs and conditions of our customers in the float and flat glass industry. They are used by all well-known glass manufacturers worldwide and have proven themselves for over 40 years by:

  • optimum adaptability
  • outstanding process reliability
  • a high degree of flexibility
  • simple operation and control
  • excellent price-performance ratio
  • cost-efficient operation and economical maintenance
  • perfect integration into an existing system
APx

The APx series is characterized by its high flexibility and the associated wide range of applications. Almost all release agents currently available on the market for float and flat glass can be applied up to 6.000 mm without large overspray. A slight static charge causes the powder to adhere better, which significantly improves the quality of the glass. The soiling of the environment is also reduced.

PDS

The roller application system offers an application width of up to 6.500 mm. Due to the almost fixed application width, the PDS is mainly suitable for glass production with constant dimensions. Due to its robustness, it does not require a high level of maintenance.

LA C-Protection

The LA-C is used extremely successfully by many well-known customers worldwide to apply liquid corrosion protection to float glass. With an application width of up to 4.600 mm, the nozzle less spraying system is characterized above all by its extremely low maintenance requirements. The LA-C is capable of continuous 24/7 production.
