Robert Bürkle held a webinar on autoclave-free glass lamination.

The online event reached more than 70 people in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and gave the viewers an in-depth insight into flatbed lamination of flat and safety glass.

In addition to a round of talks with Bürkle experts Robert A. Gaiser, Sales Director Technical Glass, and Daniel Klaus, Process Development, the easy-LAM IFL laminating system was presented live at the Freudenstadt plant.

"We were very pleased that so many spectators took part in the digital event. This shows that there is a lot of interest in the market for our new technology for glass lamination," Robert Gaiser said after the 50-minute event.

The event can be viewed in German and English on Bürkle’s website and/or YouTube channel.

Bürkle entered the glass market in 2018 with its glass lamination technology. Instead of autoclaves, it relies on flatbed lamination, which promises above all short cycle times and more efficient glass lamination.

For the lamination of flat and safety glass, the easy-LAM IFL is equipped with three flat presses that laminate completely inline and increase the degree of automation and flexibility in production.

The webinar took place last month.
