| Highlights
The technology of the RoboTemp flat tempering machine is based
on forced convection and indirect radiation. RoboTemp is so
called true convection furnace, i.e. the glass is mainly heated
up by blowing hot air in the upper and lower surface.
The furnace is especially suitable for flexible production
of special glass, such as Low-E and other coated glass types.
Tempering of special coated glasses – Using convection
heating, coated glasses can be tempered virtually at the same
rate as clear glass.
Increased productivity – Up to 50% increase on clear
glass and 100% on soft-coated glasses over
conventional electric radiation heated furnaces.
Superior optical quality – The furnace can operate at
a lower system temperature with a more rapid
processing time meaning that the glass spends less time on the
system’s rollers.
Flexible production – Mixed production (clear, tint and
coated) of the same thickness can be run in the
same batch. This offers flexibility much greater that the electric
radiant heat tempering furnaces.
