GGC and Glass Global have teamed up and have developed the world’s first analysis tool for the glass industry. Glass manufacturers have on-demand access to a web-based analysis tool that allows them to quickly and easily analyze complex process parameters. “Glass engineering on demand” offers rich functionality to make sure you get your glass, ingredients and batch data just right.

This 24-hour web-enabled tool incorporates all facets of the glass-making process from thermal engineering to operating data analysis.

With ggYield, glass factories are provided with a perfect program to execute various kinds of calculation any time, whenever needed or required to check profitability or potential of optimization.

Whether you’re looking to simplify your workflow, create a more homogenous melt environment, reduce energy consumption or increase adaptability to meet individual customer demands, the answer always lies in process enhancements. Which is easier said than done. To make an informed decision, you need qualified information. When can you expect a return on your investment? What parameters need to be fine-tuned? What is the medium-term impact of switching from oil to gas?

Intelligent software is essential to optimize all parameters involved in the various glass production steps. Investing in a proprietary solution can be time-consuming and expensive. Now there is another way. Glass manufacturers have on-demand access to a Web-based analysis tool that allows them to quickly and easily analyze complex process parameters. ggYield offers rich functionality to make sure you get your glass, ingredients and batch data just right.

This 24-hour Web-based tool incorporates all facets of the glass-making process from thermal engineering to operating data analysis. And SSL encryption ensures that all data and queries you enter are totally secure. In a nutshell, our vast glass knowledge base takes the guesswork out of glasswork.

ggYield is an all-in-one solution. This means huge transparency for glass producers as all modules are mutually compatible. It is also available at any time and from any place. Highly favorable conditions make it the most economic way for glass producers to reduce costs and optimize processes. An experienced support team of glass engineers is also permanently available.

With ggYield, glass factories are provided with a perfect program to execute various kinds of calculations any time, whenever needed or required to check profitability, potential of optimization or amortization of planned investments.
