Since 1982, TECNOCRISA S.A. has distributed machineries for the glass industry and represented international manufacturers of machinery, consumables and equipment from different sectors within the glass industry.
About five years ago, filling machinery was demanded in relatively small quantities. Today, most of the new insulating glass manufacturing lines installed in Spain and Portugal include gas presses. Furthermore, many of our customers are looking to improve product traceability and to gain additional information on insulating gas concentration. Some of our customers have also expanded their machinery to include communication and printing modules. All this is done in order to improve the entire quality control process.
Mr. Binder Castro says.
Due to important potential of the Spanish and Portuguese market, TECNOCRISA, S.A. will be offering all Sparklike devices™ for non-destructive insulating glass gas fill analysis. We have devices to analyse the gas content of both, triple and double glazed insulating glass units. All our devices are based on our patented and proprietary technology.
We are able to offer the possibility to analyse the gas concentration of insulating glass units in a fast, economic and non-invasive way. This allows insulating glass and window manufacturers to confirm the proper functioning of both, the gas press and the gas filling machinery, without breaking the unit. This, on the other hand, ensures that the end-user receives an insulating glass unit with the gas concentration that complies with industry norms and regulations.
Mr. Binder Castro concludes.
For double glazed units, we developed Sparklike Handheld™ device, which is quick and easy to use, analysing the insulating glass gas fill of standard double glazed insulating glass units. The device is portable and battery operated, with a measurement time of only 2 seconds.

However, since a greater number of coatings and the proliferation of lamination in increasing thicknesses started to become more commonplace, in 2016 we developed the Sparklike Laser™ product line. All devices within the product line measure the insulating glass gas fill concentration of triple and double glazed units even through coatings and laminated glasses.
The newest addition to the product line is an online device that we manufacture as a customised solution integrated into the production line. In this way, all produced units can be analysed.
