Systems and equipment for distributors and forehearths

Our flexible approach to the design of glass conditioning systems allows us to design the best possible installation for each application. In addition to the basic heating and cooling technologies we also have a number of add-on systems available for specific purposes.

Forehearth electric boosting system

A small electric boosting system with electrodes installed in the equalising section of the forehearth can be used to give significant improvements in the thermal homogeneity of the glass at the end of the forehearth channel. The system can be used to specifically heat the glass at the sides or on the bottom of the channel – areas that are traditionally difficult to heat with the normal gas heating system.

Forehearth CONTI-DRAIN® system

We have already delivered over 120 forehearth CONTI-DRAIN® systems.

The drain is used to remove small quantities of contaminated glass from the bottom of the forehearth channel and thus reduce or eliminate zircon cords in the production.

Forehearth colouring system

Forehearth colouring is an interesting technology for some market segments where the additional costs are outweighed by the increase in flexibility. Our systems are custom-designed for each application and offer the best possible colour homogeneity. They are currently in use for the production of flaconage, stemware, glass bricks and rolled plate.

SORG Equipment

The design and specification of SORG equipment are based on our many years of experience of the difficult operating environment on and around forehearths.

We can supply most items of equipment for the heating and cooling systems, and the metering and control systems. Although much of the equipment is supplied as part of a forehearth contract all items are also available individually.
