Color defects inspection with Isra Vision
Reliably identifying all coating defects Color homogeneity control using full-area inline inspection in float glass production Coating defects such as color inconsistencies can considerably reduce the quality of products, so reliable identification of such defects is of utmost importance. The fully-automatic FLOATSCAN Color system inspects the coating quality directly in the production line and detects all serial defects at an early stage – before they become relevant and lead to defective material being processed further. Defects such as color inconsistencies can occur during the pyrolytic coating of glass ribbons in the line. In order to prevent defective material being processed such coating defects need to be taken into account when the panes are cut. In many cases, such defects are caused by errors in the coating process. To meet these challenges, ISRA offers fully-automated solutions that ensure full-area inspection for color defects. FLOATSCAN Color reliably detects all defects such as colored zebra striping, color lines and spots on the entire glass pane. It can both be used as a standalone system and integrated with the all-in-one FLOATSCAN 5D solution. Color inspection is implemented by means of a color camera and ISRA’s Frame Grabber solution, which has proven successful in many applications. Color defects are automatically identified at a very early production stage, avoiding the need for manual inspection processes.
enables users to control and optimize the process in real time and to take appropriate countermeasures in due time in the case of serial defects. Maintenance activities of the coating line can be planned better and the quality data obtained can be used to optimize production processes in a targeted manner. Quality data on the coating is used to accurately determine the quality of the goods produced, to ensure that products fully meet the customers’ expectations and to eliminate the risk of complaints.

Coupling the National Operation with the television campaign is a wise choice that allows us to broaden our visibility and more broadly that of the brand. TECHNAL offers modern tools such as the MMS campaign. I was also seduced by the panel of pre-established documents and the electronic signature that allow us to communicate easily. In parallel with the Operation Nationale, we organize open doors and a commercial operation. These events are relayed through communication tools.

RBM STORY
RBM. (Reynaud Baldichieri Mole) ITALIA was founded in 1963. In the beginning it was a local little workshop: Romano Reynaud worked in a glazing factory and during his spare time he worked out the formula of the first polishing wheel for glass. In 1965 R.B.M. begins to co-operate with important machine manufacturers such as ADA and COVESA: machines are tested and exported with mr. Reynaud's wheels and are more and more well-known both in Italy and abroad.The first polishing wheels to be invented and sold are 9R and 10S, that are still requested a lot today.In the beginning of the eighties, a bigger range of wheels are needed because of new types of machines and more types of glass processings. In this period the first cerium wheel, X081, is made. In the beginning of the nineties, R.B.M manufactures the first resin and polyurethane wheels for the arris. It starts to develop the business relationship with the Chinese market that today covers a 40% of the total export of the company.In 1995 X3000 and X5000 appear in the market as high quality wheels that can reach top polishing results.In 2008 R.B.M. moves on, concentrating not only on flat glass, but also on low-E glass and develops new wheels for the removal of the low E film.In 2009 the range of cerium wheels grows with the new X09, an high resistant wheel for fast rotation speed (3400 RPM).
R.B.M. ITALIA is now a leader in the manufacturing of polishing wheels for flat edge.Beside the manufacturing and sales of polishing wheels, R.B.M. was capable of increasing year after year the demand from local and foreign markets through the development of new products, the presence in the most important exhibitions and the technical assistance for every problem solving of the customers. A new larger factory was built in order to fulfil an higher request of wheels. The originality of the products is guaranteed by an official registration of the trademark all over the world. Despite of the evolution, R.B.M. has never changed its initial characteristics: a family run business that gives particular care to the production process and the customer satisfaction.
