Asahi India to Use Nirvana PLUS Replicam for Glass Cutting
MUMBAI,
INDIA, May 20, 2008 - PLUS Replicam from Nirvana Technologies Pvt. Ltd. has
been implemented at Asahi India automotive glass plant at Rewari. This has
simplified Asahi’s process of accurately cutting the glass based on the
templates of the automobile manufacturers. Using PLUS Replicam, with a good
digital image of the template, they generate the shapes in the form of CAD
drawings quickly, with a high accuracy. This is then transferred to the
Nirvana’s PLUS 2D Glass Optimization software for optimizing the quantity of
glass required for manufacture. PLUS 2D Glass generates optimum cutting
plans, optimizing the utilization of glass and thereby reducing waste. This
has resulted in time saving for the company and they also are not
constrained by the digitizers.

PLUS Replicam - Digitizing software to Replicate Templates helps to
generate accurate drawings of complicated shapes quickly from digital
Images. Starting with a digital photograph of the template, PLUS Replicam
calibrates the image and generates the outline of the shape with a smooth
tangential contour suitable for CNC. The output is in the form of CAD
drawing. These CAD files can be used for further processing. Complicated
shapes, holes, cutouts, etc. can be digitized. Major benefits include speed
and flexibility of the size of the template. Also, there is no need for
investment on expensive digitizers or digitizing tables.
