LAND has launched ImagePro Glass AI, an advanced image processing platform designed to bring intelligent, data-led monitoring to glass melt tanks.
Purpose-built for the glass industry,
ImagePro Glass AI integrates temperature measurement, batch coverage analysis and flame monitoring within a single, unified environment. Supporting real-time analysis from up to 16 thermal imagers, the platform provides a continuous, comprehensive view of furnace conditions, enabling operators to respond quickly and maintain stable, optimised performance.
With the introduction of embedded artificial intelligence,
ImagePro Glass AI moves beyond conventional threshold-based monitoring to deliver a more robust and reliable approach to furnace control. Advanced neural network models enable precise, pixel-level detection and tracking of raw batch material across the melt surface, significantly improving analysis accuracy compared with traditional methods.
The system continuously calculates and tracks the batch line position, allowing operators to monitor deviation from target and maintain alignment with furnace hot spots. This supports improved melting efficiency, enhanced heat utilisation and more consistent glass quality. At the same time, integrated AI flame detection automatically identifies flame presence, including alternating flame conditions, removing the need for manual configuration while eliminating interference in batch analysis.
ImagePro Glass AI also introduces intelligent alarm functionality, providing continuous monitoring of critical regions and generating alerts when defined thresholds are exceeded. This enables proactive process control, helping to reduce defect risk and minimise production variability. In parallel, comprehensive data logging and an integrated history viewer support detailed trend analysis, providing valuable insight for ongoing process optimisation.
Designed for seamless integration into modern glass manufacturing environments, the platform offers flexible region-of-interest configuration, grid-based batch coverage visualisation and integrated flame analysis to support a deeper understanding of heat transfer across the furnace. A configurable multi-window, multi-monitor interface ensures clear visualisation of process data, while Modbus TCP, I/O modules and secure user-level access support full plant integration and control.
By combining advanced thermal imaging with AI-driven analytics in a single platform,
ImagePro Glass AI enables glass manufacturers to improve process control, reduce defects and increase operational efficiency. The result is a smarter, more responsive approach to furnace optimisation, supporting consistent, high-quality glass production.
