Thickness of 1mm, 60 Ton Per Day, Sheet Glass Making Machine, Clear Glass

1. Brief Description

Glass is a special amorphous inorganic non-metallic material. The main component is silicate, a non-crystalline solid with an irregular structure.
In 1961, the Belgian Grave Bell company pioneered the production process of flat glass. Under this process, it can achieve a glass thickness of 0.8 mm to 12 mm.
Glass melting is the most important process in glass production. It is a forming process that uniformly forms batches of materials into qualified liquid without bubbles under high temperature heating.
The melting process is divided into the following five stages, each of which has its internal connections and influences each other. If the performance of one stage is not perfect, it will affect the next stage and ultimately affect the quality of glass.

• Silicate forming

• Glass liquid forming

• Clearing

• Homogenization

4. Main Equipment Description

• Batch Plant

For batching and mixing the raw materials.

• Furance

The melting tank is key part of glass production line, the refractory materials quality is very important.

• Forming

Compared with the float glass process, the sheet glass is combined with slotless process and horizontal stretching process, forming the glass liquid by slotless tank and stretching rotation method.

• Annealing Lehr

In glass technology, annealing means to put the glass into the annealing lehr for a certain time or reduce the temperature with a slow speed, so as to no additional permanent stress or temporary stress will produce. Namely, annealing also means a process which will reduce or eliminate the thermal stress of glass.
