Online and Offline Coatings
10
Online coatings: are applied directly to glass duringproduction, before the glass has cooled. The coatingis applied by vaporizing a chemical compound overthe semi-molten glass.
Offline coatings: are added after the basic float (or annealed)glass has been manufactured and cut. Offline coatings werepreviously considered less resistant but latest techniques now usea magnetron coater which results in an exceptionally durablecoating, which can even be heat treated for toughening.

Sanam Technology - Sputtering
11
Physical-vapour-deposition (PVD) is a process of condensing thin film layers of metals,their oxides, their nitrides or combinations onto a glass substrate.
Sputtering Theory:
• Positive Ar ions are accelerated to the negatively charged cathode and hit thetarget surface with high energy
• Such collisions eject target atoms and cause the emission of secondary electrons• The target atoms are deposited as a coating on the substrate with good uniformity,
reproducibility and adhesion.• The secondary electrons produce new Ar ions by collision.• Introducing O2 or N2 to the coating chamber atmosphere allows deposition of either
metal-oxide or metal-nitride films.
Magnetron Sputtering:
• A series of magnetic fields are introduced intothe sputter chamber to increase electron densitynear the target.
• Consequently argon ions near the cathode areincreased resulting in a faster sputtering rate.

1. Loading station of float glass sheets
Suction cups automatically lift glass from the vertical to the horizontal orientation andpositions it onto the coating line conveyors ready for coating. One or two pieces ofglass can be loaded every 45 seconds up to a maximum size of 3.3m x 6.0m andthickness from 3mm to 19mm. When one pack has been completely unloaded fromthe vertical rack, the Turn-Table automatically rotates to allow unloading from thenext pack, to ensure continuous processing.
2. Glass Washing Machine
Glass is conveyed through a specially designed glass washing and drying machine,where its surfaces are specially treated ready to accept the thin film layers inside thecoater. It employs specialist high pressure spray, rotating brush and ultra-high puritywater terminologies.
3. Entry load-lock vacuum chambers
The Glass Coating Process has to be performed in a carefully controlled atmosphereand is carried out in specially designed High Vacuum Process Chambers. In order toconvey glass from atmospheric pressure into the high vacuum environment, is has tobe passed through three vacuum grading vessels before it is allowed to enter thecarefully controlled atmosphere of the main process.
4. Process chambers
These are constructed of 25mm thick, re-enforced steel enclosures, connected atboth ends to a “Load-Lock” system. They are equipped with ninety twoMagnetically Levitated High Vacuum pumps, High Tech Plasma deposition sourcesand their associated controls, vacuum seals, conveyor rollers, plasma shields andmagnetron vacuum tunnels. There are ten Alternating Current (AC) Rotary and fourPlanar Direct Current (DC) Plasma Generators and magnetron sources installed,which allow a variety of coatings to be produced.
5. Exit load-lock vacuum chambers
Once the coating has been completed in the main process stage, the glass thenhas to be removed from the vacuum for inspection and packaging. It is againpassed through three vacuum grading vessels using the opposite technique to theentry load lock in order to preserve the carefully controlled environment of main theprocess.
6. Control and inspection room
Full operational control is performed by qualified process engineers at work stations inthe control center mounted above the line after the end of the coater. Every bedload of glass is subject to intense visual inspection and over one hundred spectro-photometric measurements to ensure product quality and consistency. Once theglass has passed inspection, an interleaving powder medium is applied to the coatedsurface to avoid product damage during storage and transit.
7. Glass cutting
If there is a requirement for glass sheets to be split, this unit is capable of scribing andsnapping glass. Pre- programmed cutting pattern commands for final split sizes areentered into the control center and these are executed when glass is presented tothis unit. Sizes capable of being conveniently handled manually can then beunloaded from the end of the line ready for final packaging.
8. Un-loading station
There are four automated unloading units which automatically lift sheets of glassfrom the horizontal conveyors into the vertical orientation and places them onto aglass rack ready for final packing. One or two pieces of glass can be unloadedevery 45 seconds up to a maximum size of 3.3m x 6.0m. When one rack has beencompletely loaded with 2-3 Tons of glass, the Turn-Table automatically rotates toallow continuous loading of the next glass pack.

Low E- Glass
15
Low-emissivity (Low –E)
Low-E glass is glass that has been treated with an invisible metal or metallic oxide coating, creating a surface that reflects heat,while allowing light to pass through. This energy-saving technology first became available in 1979 and continues to grow inpopularity. Windows treated with Low-E coatings are proven to reduce energy consumption, decrease fading of fabrics, such aswindow treatments. And the advantage of low-E are:
• Block direct solar heat year-round.
• Reduce solar heat gain where air conditioning costs are significant.
• Reduce fading and degradation of a home’s carpets, curtains, and furniture from UV rays.
• Provide improved comfort in the winter.

www.sanamglass.com18
Which side of the glass to coat SolerStop SE Series?
The effectiveness of low-e glass is dependent on the direction the coating is facing. In double glazed windows low-e glass can bespecified on a particular side of the glass depending on what you want to achieve. For warm climates where summer heatreduction is a priority, the coating should be on the inside facing surface of the outside pane (surface #2). This will minimize heatcoming into the home by absorbing solar radiation and reflecting it back outside. In cold climates where retention of heat is apriority, the coating works best by facing outwards on the inside pane (surface #3). The coating will work by absorbing inside heatand reradiating it back into the room.

SOLRASTOP ( Reflective ):
This is a glass with a metallic coating to reduce solar heat. This special
metallic coating also produces a mirror effect, preventing the subject
from seeing through the glass. It is mainly used in façades.
SOLRASTOP ( Low E ):
Low E glass coatings work by reflecting or absorbing IR light (heat
energy). The thickness of the Low E coating and the position in the
window (#2 or #3 surface) dictate how the window will perform.

Technical notes
22
Summer mode. Light is admitted through the glass, but heat fromoutside is reflected, helping to reduce cooling costs.
Winter mode. Light is admitted through the glass, but heat frominterior spaces is reflected back into the house interior by thelow-e coating.
During the winter, heat (long wave radiation) in the room naturallywants to escape through the glass, but low-E glass reflects it backinto the room keeping it warm. If you touch a standard pane of glassin the winter it feels very cold, even if the room itself is hot. If youtouch the inner pane of Low-E glass, it feels much warmer. Duringthe summer months it is hot outside, but the low-E glass does not letthe infrared thermal radiation (long wave) pass through it reducingthe overall solar heat gain of the building.

Processing & Edge Deletion
23
Processing:
• Most sputter coated glass types currently can be heat treated after the coating is applied, this type of glass called
Post-Temperable.
• Some sputter coated glass have an additional final layer of Silicon Nitride to protect the coating during heat
treatment
• Certain Silicon Nitride protected glass coatings only develop their low emissivity characteristics after heat
treatment.
• Some sputter coated glass types require edge deletion before assembling into IGU
Edge Deletion
Due to its excellent moisture proof, butyl is chosen to be the adhesive to seal between spacer bar and glass.
However, the adhesion between butyl and low-e coating does not perform well. Consequently, it is always required
to remove the low-e coating around the edges of the glass. This process is known as low-e edge deletion. After low-e
edges are deleted, glass edges are exposed. Butyl gets in direct contact with glass. This allows the adhesion in best
performance.

Tempering Facility
This is a fully aspirated, resistively heated commercially available, GlassTempering Furnace used to evaluate typical “window” sized coated glass ina production environment. It is used to assure our coated glass products canbe Tempered strengthened accordance with international standardsrequirements such as ASTM and EN.
The process of tempering glass is simple in principle. The coated glass isheated uniformly to a temperature above its softening point. The surfacesare then rapidly cooled causing them to form compressive stresses up to 25%of the thickness of the glass and then cooled to a temperature suitable formanual handling. This procedure improves the lateral impact strength ofglass and ensures that if it is broken, it minimizes the risk of personal injury bybreaking into small Dice-Size pieces.
The tempered glass is then visually inspected for defects, and thenspectrophotometric properties are evaluated
