Efficient Workflow: Automation and Digitisation Reduce Production and Handling Costs

摘要

Cost cutting, it is often said, is difficult in glass production and processing as this sector is characterised by manual processes. At the forthcoming glasstec 2016, however, the industry will prove the opposite: further savings are to be expected through innovative approaches for automation, smart networking of production machines and value-creation stages as well as through new handling devices. This means that the glass industry should be well geared up for international competition.
