Glass Industry
High‑precision temperature measurement and monitoring solutions engineered by HeatandCool for demanding glass production environments.
View CatalogGlass Industry Temperature Measurement Solutions
Accurate, reliable temperature measurement is critical throughout glassmaking – from batch house and melting furnaces to forehearths, forming and annealing. Extreme temperatures, dust, vapours and corrosive atmospheres all put heavy demands on instrumentation.
HeatandCool designs and supplies both contact and non‑contact temperature solutions that thrive in these harsh glass‑plant environments. Our systems help operators:
- Control melt temperature and glass level in real time
- Detect hot spots and refractory wear before failures occur
- Optimise energy use and improve pull rate and yield
- Protect furnace structures and extend campaign life
Our portfolio covers key process areas across the glass plant, including:
- Melting furnaces, regenerators and doghouses
- Forehearths, distributors and working ends
- Float baths and tin baths
- Container and tableware forming lines
- Annealing lehrs and tempering furnaces
Applications Involved
Melting Furnace
High‑temperature monitoring of furnace crown, breast walls, doghouse and regenerators to protect refractories and stabilise the melt.
Forehearth & Distributor
Precise forehearth and spout temperature control for consistent gob temperature and colour uniformity across all production lines.
Float / Tin Bath
Non‑contact temperature profiling of glass ribbon and tin bath atmosphere to ensure flatness, thickness and surface quality.
Forming Lines
Monitoring of blank, mould and blow‑side temperatures for containers and tableware to reduce defects and improve pack rate.
Annealing Lehr
Uniform lehr temperature control and profiling to minimise residual stress and thermal breakage in finished glass.
Mould & Gob Temperature
Fast‑response sensors and IR systems for mould, plunger and gob temperature measurement, supporting advanced process analytics.
