3D Curved Glass Series
Automatic Screen Printing Machine for Automotive Glass
The trend toward 3D curved glass in the automotive industry demands printing solutions with high adaptability and precision. Backed by over three decades of experience in flat glass printing, Windo developed automotive glass printing systems tailored for complex curved cover glass. These screen printers overcome common challenges in 3D applications, such as shape distortion and ink consistency, delivering accurate results even on irregular surfaces. Multiple national invention patents support the technology, which offers a reliable solution for manufacturers working with innovative vehicle designs.
| Max. glass size (mm) | 1400 × 2000 |
| Min. glass size (mm) | 400 × 700 |
| Glass curvature (mm) | Max. dome height: 30 Max. arch height: 45 |
| Positioning accuracy (mm) | ±0.2 |

Compared to flat glass, 3D curved glass presents a significant challenge in maintaining printing accuracy due to its complex surface geometry. To address this, our engineering team developed a set of integrated technologies designed specifically for precision screen printing on contoured surfaces:
- The multi-axis servo system works in full coordination to ensure precise positioning, keeping accuracy within ±0.2 mm even on complex curved surfaces.
- A flexible squeegee adapts seamlessly to the 3D glass contour while the CNC path tracking ensures smooth, consistent ink application throughout the print stroke.
- Printing on curved glass is achieved with stability and control across a defined range of arch heights, making it suitable for automotive applications such as cover glass or curved windshields.
