Sidelights and sunroofs to control the amount of light entering inside cars through glazing is the most recent trend offered by automotive market. The amount of light transmitted can be tuned continuously from dark to clear and vice versa at the simple touch of a button. This solution, which manages the level of solar radiance inside the car, while enabling passengers to have a view of the sky, is highly appreciated by today’s auto market. The glass used for such sidelights and sunroofs contains a special PVB (polyvinyl butyral) interlayer between two glass sheets laminated together, where a thin film of liquid crystals has been included. Light transmission is adjusted by applying an external voltage, resulting in the alignment of the suspended particles, allowing light to enter the vehicle. This system of managing transparency allows passengers to control the temperature inside the vehicle, keeping it comfortable, while reflecting visible infrared rays. These special automotive glass types require accurate handling at each and every step of industrial production phases. The experience gained by IOCCO as a supplier of equipment and lines for automotive glass processing is the key to up-grade production plants according to current market demand.
