Principles and precautions for selecting glass tempering furnace equipment

Glass tempering furnace is a key equipment in the glass production line, which directly affects the operating efficiency of the entire production line and the quality of glass products. Reasonable selection of glass tempering furnace can not only improve production efficiency and extend the service life of equipment, but also effectively save energy consumption and reduce operating costs.

Principles of glass tempering furnace equipment selection

1. Capacity matching principle

The design capacity of the glass tempering furnace must match the actual capacity of other links in the production line. If the capacity of the tempering furnace is too large, it will cause waste of energy and labor; if the capacity is too small, it will restrict the efficiency of the entire production line. Therefore, when selecting, it is necessary to combine the actual situation of the production line to select a better tempering furnace specification.

2. Process compatibility principle

The tempering process requirements of different glass varieties are different, so the design of the tempering furnace must be compatible with the process of the required tempered glass variety. For example, although the tempering processes of flat glass, automotive glass, laminated glass, etc. have something in common, the parameter settings in the heating, cooling, and transportation links are different. Therefore, it is necessary to select a suitable tempering furnace model based on the company’s existing and future product planning.

3. Energy-saving and environmental protection principles

With the increasing attention paid to energy conservation and environmental protection, the glass industry is also facing higher environmental protection requirements. Tempering furnaces are high-energy-consuming equipment, and equipment with high energy efficiency ratio and low pollution emissions should be given priority, which can not only reduce operating costs but also meet environmental protection requirements. In addition to the energy-saving performance of the equipment itself, the design of energy-saving links such as waste heat recovery should also be considered.

Precautions for selecting glass tempering furnace equipment

1. Clarify the size requirements of the tempering furnace

Glass tempering furnaces of different specifications have large differences in size. For example, the length of the car window glass tempering furnace is usually 6-9 meters; the flat glass tempering furnace can even reach more than 30 meters. Therefore, before selecting the model, it is necessary to accurately understand the requirements of the production line for the glass size to avoid the inability to produce normally due to inconsistent sizes.
