Direct gob loading with split induction-heated orifices keeps glass temperature uniform, reducing wall-thickness variation and delivery complexity.
Directly aligned feeder orifices and induction-heated tips keep glass gobs uniform in temperature, improving wall thickness consistency.
A gas-permeable chute forms a cushion under molten glass gobs to limit heat loss, reduce distortion, and keep container wall thickness consistent.
Directly aligned feeder orifices and blank molds keep gob temperature uniform, reduce stretching, and support thinner glass walls.
An actuator slides preloaded orifice plates between charging and operating regions, changing molten glass streams without manual hot-part removal.
A guided actuator moves preloaded orifice plates into position, reducing downtime and personnel exposure during molten glass flow changes.
A control unit estimates molten glass volume using temperature and density data to adjust plunger displacement for consistent dispensing.
Replacing hydraulic and cam systems, the direct-drive motor eliminates mechanical wear to maintain precise plunger positioning.
Independent motorized drive units reduce moving mass and inertia, enabling precise drop weight control in molten glass ribbon forming.
