Case Study: Glas Herzog achieves intelligent, flexible insulated glass production with A+W Software

Glas Herzog - Customer Case Study

Glas Herzog, a family-owned insulated glass producer, faced a challenge when its existing HEGLA SortJet sorter was incompatible with the latest A+W DynOpt II optimization software. Replacing the physical sorter would have been prohibitively expensive and required a production shutdown of over three weeks, creating a significant operational hurdle.

A+W Software formed a project team that developed a converter, a software solution that allowed the existing SortJet to run the new DynOpt II platform. This elegant and cost-effective fix was installed in just a few days and worked perfectly from the start, eliminating the need for a lengthy shutdown. The implementation of A+W's comprehensive software suite, including the Realtime Optimizer and Business 6 ERP, provides Glas Herzog with maximum flexibility, improved glass yield through automated residual management, and end-to-end control of its production and commercial processes.
