BUCHER EMHART GLASS, leading provider of equipment for the glass container industry, has launched a new specialist support channel dedicated to automation equipment.
 

For its first-ever benefit-sharing deal Bucher Emhart Glass, provider of equipment for the glass container industry, has partnered with Thai manufacturer BG Container Glass. The enterprise will see both companies collaborate as partners to improve performance and share in the rewards.

In his first major interview since being appointed President of Bucher Emhart Glass 18 months ago, Matthias Kümmerle explains how he intends to continue the company’s focus on digital technology. He believes not only does digital technology improve a glass plant’s production efficiency but it can also help with the climate challenge.

Making a splash on the market, EMHART’s Smart Filter maximizes inspection performance in its offer of sidewall setup automation, using both static and production learning functions as it establishes optimal greyscale thresholds to fully inspect containers at the very highest levels of sensitivity.

Upon installing its new FlexRobot onto two of Vidroporto’s forming lines, Swiss glass manufacturing automation leader BUCHER EMHART GLASS continues with the Brazilian glassmaker to drive performance to the next level after an immediate uptick in both product quality and pack-to-melt ratio.
