A key feature of the high degree of automation at Vitrochaves is a sorting buffer system managed by the GPS.autofab software solution. GPS.autofab optimises glass supply to all connected machines, enabling the buffer to store 4–6 hours of production. This also allows wastage-optimised glass cutting to account for sheet sizes in future production processes. The sheets are temporarily stored and retrieved for further processing as needed, ensuring smooth and continuous production.
This ultra-modern system marks a significant development for Vitrochaves, reinforcing its position as a leading provider of flat glass on the Iberian Peninsula. The fully automatic factory ensures efficient production and high-quality end products, benefiting Vitrochaves customers.
