QComp Technologies, Inc. Introduces New Automated Insulated Glass Load & Unloading System

POSTED 04/21/2009

New System Features Six Axis Robot & Vision Technology for Precise Location of Slots & Glass Thickness Calibration

GREENVILLE, Wisconson.- April 21, 2009, QComp Technologies, Inc., has introduced a new insulated glass (IG) automatic load and unloading system to its glass handling product line. The new IG system uses a six-axis ABB robot and QComp’s machine vision system to unload IG units from the production line and place them into slotted glass racks. QComp also provides a system that can pick single lites from slotted racks and load them onto the IG production line.

“Staying competitive in this economy is key for all manufacturers and for glass manufacturers in particular they need to maintain quality while reducing costs and increasing productivity,” said Tom Doyle, president of QComp Technologies, Inc. “Our new system allows customers to maintain quality by eliminating scratching, reduce labor costs, and increase safety and production .”

Utlizing an ABB six axis robot and a proprietary vision technology developed by QComp, the system can precisely locate the rack slots to load and unload glass and can be calibrated for various glass and unit thicknesses. Capable of handling a large range of glass sizes the QComp system also features seamless integration with line controls.
