Flexible Machine Control System from National Instruments
Sylvania Lighting Develops Flexible Machine Control System Using NI Vision, Motion, Intelligent DAQ, and LabVIEW.
Sylvania Lighting is one of the world’s
largest artificial light source manufacturers. We have a broad product
offering, from incandescent light bulbs, halogen, and low-energy lamps
for the consumer market to fluorescent lamps, high-intensity discharge
(HID) lamps, and various special products for professional use.
At the
we produce and develop metal halide lamps. To develop a new, smaller
type of lamp, we needed a production machine that would let us easily
adapt all process parameters. The standard “pinch process,” in which
two metal blocks press melted glass around electrode-foil wires to
create an impermeable bond, is not capable of producing these new
lamps. Therefore, we developed a new process to melt the glass directly
around the foil, requiring a totally new machine and a new, optimized
production process.
