Touchless Low-e Detection

The IAS Touchless Sensor Can Determine the Low-E Type and Surface Position for Every Piece of Glass

Simple setup of each glass type teaches our touchless system the correct and incorrect orientation of each low-e type. This allows for 4th surface coatings like I89 to be fed face down while coatings like Cardinal le270 can be face up. The teaching process can be completed in about two minutes when you add a new glass type.
If a lite of glass is fed in the correct orientation, the HMI will show the low-e type and thickness of each piece of glass as it passes under the sensor and the stack light will remain green.

When a lite of glass is fed in the wrong orientation (i.e. Cardinal Le270 face down) the screen will turn red, the stack light will go red, the audible alarm will sound, the washer is kicked into crawl mode and the screen will flash a large message saying “Flip Glass Over!”.

Once the operator flips the glass, the system recognizes that it is now correct and will clear the alarm and the washer will go back to running
