Summary
The Hypermemo Oy team has been successfully developing its laser glass-processing technology called GLAZER for several years now. GLAZER is based on an innovative CO2 Q-switched short-pulsed high average power laser. Hypermemo Oy is the first and the only company to date who has developed a laser technology specifically for industrial glass processing. GLAZER has unique parameters which allow for processing construction, functional/architectural, “smart” and automotive glass precisely, efficiently and faster than conventional methods. The main goal of GLAZER is eliminating the glass post-processing operations (grinding, polishing, washing, and drying) from the industrial processes, and bringing down the whole glass products manufacturing to one machine. GLAZER was prototyped and tested with different types of glass, and provides excellent quality, which was confirmed by glass industry leaders. This allows to fully eliminate post-processing, making glass processing 30 times faster, 3 times cheaper, and with almost zero rejects. These results make us confident in the breakthrough nature of GLAZER technology and its strong market potential. Within the scope of this project, we plan to identify and justify the market potential of GLAZER on the laminated, tempered and smart windows manufacturing equipment market. This market is going to greatly benefit from the current global trend of mass replacement of ordinary windows with low-emission, environment-friendly windows. This hot and fast-growing application area can be very lucrative for EU SMEs, and we will provide them with the manufacturing technology that can be easily implemented and can generate fast ROI and low environmental cost. Thus, GLAZER will make its positive impact on environmental sustainability and climate stabilization in the EU and worldwide.
