The Search For Clarity: Because in Glass Fabrication, What You Miss Can Cost You Dearly... and What You Detect Can Pay You Back Every Shift

Why did IGE choose DELTAMAX for our Glass Inspection System solution? Because in glass fabrication, what you miss can cost you dearly... and what you detect can pay you back every shift.
Every fabricator has had that gut-punch moment. The glass looked perfect when it left the line... crystal clear, flawless, ready for the truck.
Then comes the call — “Hey... there’s something wrong in this shipment you delivered today.” And you just stand there for a second, staring at your phone, doing the math in your head... callbacks, rework, reputation... Ouch!
Every square foot of float glass hides tiny stories... microscopic scratches, bubbles, inclusions... etc. They’re small enough to miss, big enough to cost you real money. That’s why the importance of glass inspection isn’t just about the quality — however extremely important... it’s also about profitability... $$$$.
The Search for Clarity
When we began looking for the right inspection system, we cast a wide net — Europe, Asia, North America. Everyone promised high-tech optics, smart software, and “AI.” But somewhere between the marketing slides and the buzzwords, we kept asking the same question: “Can it actually protect profit?” That’s what led us to DELTAMAX Automazione of Italy. From the first conversation, it was clear: these people understand glass, they understand production, and they understand business.
Why DELTAMAX Stood Out
What made DELTAMAX different wasn’t flash — it was function.
It finds the flaws others miss, the subtle defects that quietly eat your yield and profit margins. It speaks the operator’s language instead of the programmer’s. It gives you clear answers, not cryptic data. The platform fits anywhere — from vertical and horizontal IGU lines to cutting, tempering, and laminated glass — and it scales as you grow. Buy what you need today, add to it tomorrow, and keep the same familiar system. Simple. Smart.
And it’s built for the real world. Clean wiring. Thoughtful access panels. Straightforward calibration. You can tell the people who designed it have actually stood on a plant floor — not just in a trade-show booth. But maybe what impressed us the most wasn’t just the machinery at all... it was the people.
The DELTAMAX team is extremely responsive to IGE and our team. They’re very professional and refreshingly passionate.

We’re excited to bring DELTAMAX technology — and the team behind it — to the IGE world. At GlassBuild Orlando, the DELTAMAX leadership team will be joining us in the IGE booth #21113 for live demos, product previews, and straight-talk ROI discussions.
Stop by, meet the team, and see how the right inspection system protects your profit... your product... and your reputation.
From Cutting to Trucking... Faster. Better. Safer. More Profitably. Because in the end, clear vision isn’t just about the glass... it’s about the bottom line.
