Vig unit lamination

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method of providing a laminated vacuum insulated glass (VIG) unit (), wherein the method comprises: providing a lamination assembly () comprising a vacuum insulated glass (VIG) unit () comprising at least two, tempered glass sheets () separated by a plurality of support structures () distributed in a gap () between the tempered glass sheets (), and a lamination layer () arranged between one of the tempered glass sheets () of the vacuum insulated glass (VIG) unit () and a further sheet (), arranging the lamination assembly () between clamping bodies () providing clamping surfaces (), wherein at least one of said clamping surfaces () is configured to be displaced by one or more clamping body displacers () to change the distance between the clamping surfaces (), and operating the clamping body displacers () to provide a compression pressure (F) to the lamination assembly () by means of the clamping surfaces (), and heating the lamination assembly (). The disclosure additionally relates to a system for providing laminated vacuum insulated glass (VIG) units (), and use of such a system.
