TemperQC™
Complete Tempering Quality Control System for Glass
TemperQC™ integrates LiteSentry® Systems and 3rd party equipment into a unified Tempering Quality Control system.
Setting the standard in quality control.
From initial load validation with automated recipe selection to final inspection of distortion, anisotropy, and scratch detection, TemperQC delivers the future of factory automation to your tempering process today.
» Key Application: Complete Tempering Quality Control System
TemperQC provides full control of the process allowing top glass fabricators to produce higher quality glass at lower cost by closing the loop from recipe selection, fault detection via the Owl® 5 to feedback and reporting from the final stage of quality assurance and process control via the Osprey® 10. All Osprey® systems include an industrial handheld wireless scanner supporting your bar-code scanning at the unload.
TemperQC demonstrates LiteSentry’s continued commitment to new technology constantly providing the latest and most advanced offerings in the fields of glass inspection, process control, and quality assurance.
