Abstract: This article explores the key technological stages of automotive glass production, their interconnections, and their impact on product quality. The study examines processes such as float glass production, bending, laminating, autoclaving, and final assembly and packaging. Special attention is paid to identifying the main factors influencing defect formation at different stages and methods for their elimination. The importance of float glass quality as the primary material is emphasized. Early-stage defects can propagate through subsequent processes, making initial quality control crucial. The bending process is identified as one of the most complex stages. Factors such as the condition of molding tools, temperature regimes, and the proper grouping of glass in furnace wagons are critical to achieving precise windshield geometry. Temperature monitoring using pyrometers is recommended to ensure accuracy, while improper adjustments to regimes may negatively impact other glass already in the furnace. Laminating and autoclaving are analyzed as essential stages for defining mechanical and aesthetic properties. The interaction between preceding processes and PVB film quality is critical, as misalignment of inner and outer glass layers during manual PVB film application can lead to microvoids and cracks during autoclaving. The final assembly and packaging stage is presented as the ultimate checkpoint for quality control. Comprehensive inspections and robust packaging practices ensure that products meet standards and reach clients in optimal condition. This study highlights the interdependence of all production stages and advocates a systemic approach to quality management. It offers practical recommendations for minimizing defects, optimizing processes, and enhancing efficiency, making it valuable for professionals in the glass manufacturing industry.
