LiSEC announced the migration of cericom GmbH into LiSEC laser processing as new part of the LiSEC "all in one solutions portfolio."
This move hopes to enhance LiSEC’s technological capabilities and market presence. cericom GmbH, known for its laser technology and precision in glass processing, has already been a valuable part of the LiSEC Group. Transforming it into LiSEC laser processing allows LiSEC to combine its strengths to offer superior solutions in the glass processing industry.
Benefits of laser processing
Adding laser systems extends LiSEC's product portfolio and provides new possibilities to its customers. As the demand for glass processing continues to rise, LiSEC laser processing offers a comprehensive range of solutions tailored to meet the unique needs of various branches in the glass industry. Whether the customer wants to frost the surface of the glass, remove or structure coatings, drill in complex shapes contact-free, or create bird-friendly glass: With LiSEC's glass laser processing solutions, sophisticated projects in architecture and design can be realized. The LiSEC laser processing machines are equipped with the latest laser technology and allow customers to decorate and drill glass easily and precisely.
Laser processing for producing bird friendly glass
Bird-friendly glass is designed to make glass visible as an obstacle to birds, thereby preventing bird deaths. In the past, black bird-shaped stickers were applied to glass surfaces as a deterrent, but these proved ineffective. Today, adhesive films with patterns such as stripes or dots, fly screens, special window paint, or cord curtains are recommended.
However, these solutions are often unattractive, they are impractical for most large buildings, and they also obstruct the view. An alternative is bird-friendly glass, which is produced using laser processing machines. The laser modifies the glass so that its transparency and reflectivity are altered. This allows birds to see the surface immediately and avoid flying into it. What may seem like a minor difference to humans can be a matter of life and death for birds. By reducing the rate of bird strikes, LiSEC can minimize human intervention in the ecosystem. This approach not only protects bird populations but also maintains the aesthetic and functional integrity of buildings.
Laser processing offers a practical and visually appealing solution to the problem of bird collisions with glass. It ensures that buildings remain both bird-friendly and visually unobstructed, contributing to a more harmonious coexistence between human structures and wildlife.
