Project Overview

 

Foshan Yixin Glass Technology operates a highly automated glass-processing factory, with its production processes managed through an integrated MES system.

Techwin supplied two glass washing machines for two separate production lines:

  • 2500 mm washing machine
  • 3000 mm washing machine

 

Both machines operate as part of fully automated production lines, where stable washing performance is essential to maintaining the efficiency of the entire process.

The Challenge

Reliable Washing in Fully Automated Production

 

When multiple processes are connected online, a problem at one stage can affect the entire production flow.

The customer therefore required washing machines that could provide:

  • Consistent cleaning quality
  • Reliable high-speed operation
  • Stable drying performance
  • Compatibility with Low-E glass
  • Continuous operation within an automated production environment.

Techwin’s Solution

 

Two Washing Machines for Two Production Lines

Techwin supplied different washing capacities according to the requirements of each line:

2500 mm Washing Machine

For one automated glass-processing line.

3000 mm Washing Machine

For a second line handling larger-format glass.

Both machines use a high-performance washing configuration designed for demanding continuous production.

 

——————————-————————————————————————————————

High-Capacity Cleaning Configuration

Each washing machine is equipped with:

2 Pre-Washing Sections
4 Pairs of Washing Brushes
4 Pairs of Air Knives

The multi-stage configuration provides intensive cleaning and drying, helping maintain stable surface quality even at high production speeds.

Double & Triple Low-E Capability

Both washing machines can process modern double Low-E and triple Low-E glass, giving the production lines the flexibility to handle a wide range of energy-efficient architectural glass.

Integrated into MES-Controlled Production

The two washing machines operate within the customer’s MES-controlled production environment.

Rather than functioning as standalone equipment, they become part of a connected production workflow:

Glass Processing → Washing → Downstream Processing → Finished Glass

This high level of automation reduces manual intervention and helps maintain a continuous production flow.

Washing as Part of Smart Manufacturing

For a fully automated glass factory, washing quality is critical.

A washer is not simply responsible for cleaning the glass—it must perform consistently and reliably without becoming a bottleneck for the entire production line.

The Yixin project demonstrates Techwin’s ability to provide washing solutions that fit into high-speed, highly automated glass-processing environments.

When the factory is automated, the washing process must be automated in performance, too.
