Choosing the Right Glass Inspection Tools: A Smart Move for Quality Control
When it comes to producing, installing, or inspecting architectural glass, precision is non-negotiable. Inaccurate assumptions about glass thickness, airspace, or Low-E coatings can lead to performance failures, warranty issues, and failed inspections.
That’s why leading professionals rely on EDTM’s suite of glass inspection tools—including our flagship solution, the Glass Chek.
The Cost of Guessing
Relying on visual cues or supplier tags is no longer sufficient. Errors like:
- Improper Low-E orientation
- Misidentified triple vs. double-pane units
- Air space inconsistencies
...can cause long-term performance problems and hurt your reputation.
