OSPREY25 by LiteSentry Gets an Operator-First Redesign

ADVERTISEMENT 

LiteSentry, the global leader in optical stress analysis, has redesigned the operator experience of its Osprey®25 inline inspection system. The most visible change is a new horizontal monitor layout, replacing the previous vertical arrangement. Operators now see distortion, anisotropy, surface quality, and statistical results side by side, without switching between screens.

The Osprey®25 measures optical distortion and anisotropy simultaneously, covering 100 percent of every lite edge to edge in real time. Installed at the furnace exit, it has set the industry benchmark for decades.

Two innovations are in development: a new cleaning solution to reduce manual maintenance, and compact reports with a clearer layout for faster, easier quality documentation.

“The Osprey®25 stands for precision, reliability, and industry-proven technology for decades. Now it’s simpler to use, and just as precise,” said Peter Pfannenstill, Vice President Sales and Marketing, Softsolution, LiteSentry.

2500 UT PLUS Raises the Bar for Unitized Thermal Performance

Kawneer's 2500 UT PLUS option enhances the proven 2500 UT Unitwall® System with the company's highest-performing unitized thermal solution to date. Designed for mid- to high-rise commercial applications, the system delivers overall U-factors as low as 0.25 with a 1-inch insulating glass unit, helping architects meet increasingly stringent energy code requirements while maintaining the speed and consistency of unitized construction. The shop-assembled system reduces onsite labor and installation time while offering design flexibility through double- or triple-glazed configurations and captured or four-sided structural silicone-glazed options. A continuous polyamide thermal break and performance tested seismic capabilities further support demanding project requirements, making the 2500 UT PLUS option an efficient solution for projects seeking elevated thermal performance without compromising constructability or aesthetics.
