Window production is a precise occupation, which is why our production lines are computer-controlled. However, a perfect window would not be created without human help, which is why at each stage of production the capabilities of modern machinery are supplemented by the knowledge and experience of our employees, who additionally carry out operational control, i.e. before performing each subsequent operation, they check the correctness of the previous one.
Termo Profil uses Deceuninck, Salamander, and Wital profiles for window production. By storing the profiles compactly on a sufficiently stable base, we avoid any deformations that may occur during the storage of the profiles.
uPVC Windows Manufacturing Process at Termo Profil
We start the production of a window by cutting the profile to the size specified in the order. For this operation, we use SD 500 double-head saws and CAT 500 single-head cutting center saws. We chose this equipment because, in addition to standard functions, it has a self-zeroing option, which guarantees the correctness of the entered dimension. Control is computer-based - data with orders for saws is entered using a local LAN network. Precise cutting of profiles to a defined size is ensured by a magnetic length reading, which controls the movement of the cutting head motor. A MEX 230 band saw is used to cut steel reinforcements.
Once the profiles are cut to size, workers insert steel reinforcements into the profiles and screw them together using GEVO pneumatic screwdrivers. The frame elements prepared in this way are sent to the processing centre, where all the technological holes are made, such as: drips, vent holes and holes for the post connector. Decompression holes and holes for the handle in the window sash elements are made using hand-held milling machines by PREZMET and FIMTEC.
One of the most important stages of production is the welding of frames and sashes performed using computer-controlled welding machines. For this process, we use four-head welding machines by KMW and Rotox, which provide us with control over all parameters such as: welding temperature, heating time or pressure on the profiles. The positioning of the profiles is also done electronically. After welding - it's time to clean the corners from the welding hump of the frame and sash and other overhangs using cleaning machines by STB and Rotox.
The next stage is fitting, i.e. equipping frames and sashes with Winkhaus perimeter fittings. Fitting frames and sashes is done separately on two lines. Specialized tables are equipped with a screwing unit for fittings on surfaces and corners with automatic screw feeding, a hydropneumatic cutting machine for fittings, a measuring system and a drilling unit for corner fittings.
The fitted welded seams are joined together to form a complete window, which is then transported to the glazing and quality control station using special roller stands.
Specially ordered from an external company, glazing units are inserted into the sash or frame. A table with hydraulically raised and lowered tops is used for glazing, equipped with a roller conveyor that transports the windows to the calibration and quality control station.
After glazing, the sash is positioned relative to the frame (this is called wedging) and the glazing beads are inserted.
To avoid scratches, the windows are protected with special cork spacers and put onto special L-shaped pallets before transport.
