Encirc is set to boost glass production capacity at its site in Elton by building a world first "Industry 4.0 ready" glass production line. The new line will have technology installed which will see the plant's hot end digitally connected to the cold end. When operational in 2020, the line will make use of in-built intelligent swabbing, laser identification marking and inspection machines, which will be fully integrated to work alongside humans.
