During the production the glass defect resulting from the production is one of the main trouble for the glass makers.
Glass Service assistance engineers are specialized in glass defect analysis and glass defect trouble shooting.
The Glass Service professional approach includes several investigations on the glass defect and analysis as indicated in the figure.
Thanks to the deep know- how in the glass melting technology Glass Service assistance engineer can analyse the full production process with non-limitation on only one part.
During the defect trouble-shooting not only the defect analysis (indicated in the figure) are evaluated, but also the full batching & melting process.
The main focuses are:
batching and raw materials:
raw material pollution
raw material constant quality
batch mixing
batch humidity
refining agent & decolouring agent
cullet:
cullet quality
cullet grain size
cullet pollution
melting furnace process:
melting temperature and energy distribution
melting bottom and top temperature
batch charger and batch charging distribution on melt bath surface
bubbling or electrical booster efficiency
burners combustion ratio
temperature sensor calibration
conditioning and foreheart:
spout temperature profile input
throat temperature
zone heating/cooling distribution
air/gas combustion ratio
temperature sensor calibration
The use of modern investigation technology as well as the first class European chemical&physical laboratory allows top the Glass Service’s assistance Engineer to help the glass maker in their activity and success.
