In 2015, AGC Glass Europe created a new tool for measuring the thickness of installed glazing with a smartphone, using a special App.

New function: coating detection

This same App now features a new function called ‘Coating detection’. This detects the presence of a coating on the panes of a glazed unit, whether it is double- or triple-glazed.

This function uses the backlight of a smartphone to project an image onto the glass. If one of the reflections of this image on the glazing is a different colour, this shows that the glazing has one or more coatings.

 

Second function: calculating glass thickness

Until now, in order to measure the thickness of a pane of glass whose edges were concealed within a frame, one had to either gauge it with a plastic measuring card or use a professional measuring device.

With the ‘Calculate glass thickness’ function, you can simply scan the inner or outer pane (in double or triple glazing) by positioning a smartphone against the window at an angle of 45°. The App allows you to measure glass thicknesses from 4 mm up to 15 mm.

The AGC Group have taken another significant step toward sustainable glass production by becoming members of Glass Futures.
When it comes to ensuring the quality of insulating glass units (IGUs), accurate measurement of gas concentration is critical.
FREOR, a leader in energy-efficient refrigeration solutions, has implemented the Sparklike Laser Portable to ensure optimal argon levels in insulated glass units.
When comparing sealed units (insulating glass units, IGUs) with single-pane glass, several key performance metrics highlight the advantages of sealed units.
FINEO by AGC is now the first and only European manufacturer to live up to its pioneering role and obtained the world's first voluntary CE marking for its vacuum insulating glass.
While some manufacturers prioritize the mere presence of gas, Sparklike aims to educate the industry on why the exact argon-filled units’ gas fill rate matters.
