HEGLA and Glaston Corporation have decided to terminate their cooperation agreement due to changes in the companies’ competitive positions. The agreement, which was entered into in 2012 by Bystronic Lenhardt GmbH, Conzzeta AG, HEGLA GmbH & Co. KG, and LEWAG Holding AG, will be terminated by year-end 2019.

Visit us at Glassbuild America from the 15th to 17th September 2020.

The requirements of future markets, the opportunities of digitalisation, and new processes for the surface functionalisation and structuring of glass are the focus of the newly established “HEGLA New Technology” centre. The HEGLA Group headquartered in Beverungen, Germany, founded the innovation centre to expand its research and development capability and increase its innovation power.

This year, Glasstec (2018) once again surpassed its reputation as the leading trade fair for glass - this is the verdict of Bernhard Hötger, Managing Director of HEGLA, who was in the midst of the action on behalf of the company for no less than the eighteenth time. The MD is certain that visitors hoping to gain inspiration from the latest trends and visions for the future found plenty to interest them, as did those who wished to learn about the latest machines, equipment and concepts.

The opportunities, possibilities and potential of the digital future are at the centre of the HEGLA-HANIC GmbH vision, the founding of which was agreed between the shareholders of machine and equipment manufacturer HEGLA and software specialist HANIC. Jochen H. Hesselbach (LEWAG Holding AG CEO) and Heinz-Dietmar Hantke (HANIC founder and shareholder) described the strategic background to this decision: “With HEGLA-HANIC GmbH, we will be able to combine and further strengthen both companies’ efforts in embarking on a course towards Industry 4.0 and the associated holistic view and optimisation of our customers’ value chain in an ideal manner.”

With solutions and concepts for the scoring of shapes in laminated glass, HEGLA will play a part in the international rendezvous of the glass industry at Vitrum in Milan. Anyone wanting to see the performance capability of electromagnetic linear drives with their own eyes has a great opportunity at the stand with the Rapidline cutting system.

750 guests accepted the invitation of the Beverungen-based HEGLA Group to attend their 40th birthday celebrations in the Stadthalle in Beverungen. A further reason for celebration was that the anniversary year had been the most successful in the company’s history, with a turnover of 70 million. “This gave the Board of Directors even more reason to say thank you to employees and their partners by inviting them to share what was a resoundingly successful evening”, said Manfred Vollbracht, Managing Director. Several prominent personalities and supporters were also on the guest list.

Robots appear in any science fiction story. For many, they are synonymous with technical progress. In glass cutting, however, they are seldom used — even though in the automotive industry, for example, they were first introduced in 1961. Looking for the reasons for this — and where they can be found.

HEGLA presented RAPIDCUT KT, a new standalone cutting line, to coincide with glasstec 2014. At the same time, this replaces the Formline KT that is established in the market. Technically, the main difference between the two cutting machines is the electromagnetic linear drives used in the RAPIDCUT KT. The result of this drive technology, with which HEGLA has also initiated a generation shift to standalone lines, is even more precise cutting results and minimal maintenance.
