A method and apparatus for heating and/or pressing sealant of an insulating glass unit. The apparatus may include an oven and a press. The oven includes a detector that detects an optical property of the insulating glass unit. The detected optical property is used to regulate the amount of energy applied to the insulating glass unit to adjust the amount of energy applied to the sealant. The press may include a displacement transducer that detects a pre-pressed thickness of the insulating glass unit. The measured pre-pressed thickness is used to automatically select a press thickness from a set of pressed IGU thicknesses.

Why it's free to use
- Filed June 26, 2003 and granted October 20, 2015. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended June 26, 2023.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by June 26, 2025.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
