Sparklike Laser Components™ provides the core TDLAS gas measurement technology for insulating glass production lines. Designed for automation experts and IG manufacturers with integration capabilities, the system delivers accurate non-destructive gas measurement while allowing customers to build their own mechanical movement and line integration solution.
Build Your Own Automated Gas Measurement Solution
Sparklike Laser Components™ is designed for:
The system requires customer-side mechanical integration and communication with the insulating glass production line.
Sparklike Laser Components™ enables manufacturers and integrators to build gas measurement directly into their own production concepts. The modular delivery allows flexibility in mechanical design, tower construction and production line communication.

Laser Components provides the measurement technology and electronics, while the customer handles the mechanical integration and movement system.
The customer is responsible for the mechanical structure, movement system and IG line communication.
The system is intended for automation-capable IG manufacturers, machine builders and system integrators.
The system measures double and triple glazed units, including laminated and most coated glasses. Before installation, your IGU structures can be evaluated using the Sparklike IG Configurator.
After the gas filling process, the gas inside the insulating glass unit (IGU) is still stabilizing and moving within the cavity. Because of this, the individual measurement results may show some variation immediately after filling.
The main purpose of Sparklike Laser Components™ is to monitor the stability of the gas filling process over time. The system follows the gas fill rate trend using a rolling average, which smooths short-term fluctuations and highlights process consistency.
When the trend remains stable within the target range, it confirms that the gas filling process is functioning correctly and producing IGUs with the desired gas concentration.
