HUMAM MES software enhances glass production efficiency

Software Has Been Independently Researched And Developed By Company Since 2010

HUMAM MES streamlines the glass manufacturing process, ensuring real-time data integration and optimized production from start to finish.

The MES, or Manufacturing Execution System, is a production management system that manages the entire production process, from float glass to finished products. It integrates ERP order data, provides realtime production status feedback, and optimizes production for all online equipment. MES guides and processes current accurate data to ensure efficiency.

HUMAM MES software, starting from the float glass storage system—the first step in intelligent factory equipment and systems—has been independently researched and developed by the HUMAM team since 2010. To date, over 100 sets of intelligent storage systems have been put into use.

From 2010 to 2018, the HUMAM software team primarily focused on the glass shuttle/gantry storage system, and intelligent integration from glass cutting and edge grinding to tempering furnaces. They also developed the central control system for the automatic production line of the LOW-E coating line, mirror line, and solar line.

Since 2019, in response to higher market demand for reduced labor costs, increased safety, and improved glass quality, the HUMAM MES control software has been upgraded to manage the entire factory. This upgrade includes about 80 sets of laser marking systems—keyequipment in smart factories.

Additional upgrades include horizontal sorting systems before edging and tempering furnaces with automatic batching systems and vertical sorting systems for autopairing the low-E coating and clear glass for IG lines.

In the same year, the production line of SG shower glasses successfully implemented the HUMAM MES control system in India. From 2020 until now, the HUMAM MES contro system has been applied to customer Gansu ZY for system window glass.

In 2021, it was applied to Foshan SG for a jumbo-size production line, including a jumbo-size shuttle storage system for both raw glass packages and finished glass. The 6000x3000mm vertical sorting system allows the whole line to operate with only five operators, producing 1500SQM IGU every day. This setup represents the most advanced glass processing factory for high-end curtain wall doors and windows.

Following these successes, HUMAM has gained increasing customer trust and support for smart factory projects. The HUMAM machine and MES control system have been supplied to SYP, XYG, WXXL, and customers from the USA, Europe, the Middle East, Vietnam, and Russia.

HUMAM is the first company to manufacture automatic machines since 2004 and develop MES software with its own team. This expertise ensures the successful completion of each project for local and overseas customers, reflecting HUMAM’s delivery attitude and ultimate aim.
