Container glass

Equipment for glass bottle and jar production — from batch preparation and melting to forming, annealing, inspection and packing.

Overview

A container glass plant runs continuously: the furnace operates for years without stopping, while forming machines and inspection determine yield. Equipment selection must cover the whole cycle — from batch to packing.

We equip new lines and upgrade operating plants, supply mould sets and spares and support the project to design performance.

How we work

We equip container glass plants: batch house equipment, melting furnaces and feeders, IS machines, annealing lehrs, inspection systems, packing and palletising lines.

For operating plants we supply mould sets, spare parts and IS machine assemblies, and equipment to upgrade inspection and packing areas.

We compare technologies and manufacturers, calculate output and support delivery until the line reaches design performance.

Project stages

  1. 01

    Request and audit

    We study the product range, output, raw materials and site and define the process scheme.

  2. 02

    Technology selection

    We compare technologies and manufacturers and calculate output and project economics.

  3. 03

    Contract and manufacturing

    We agree the specification, layout and schedule and control equipment manufacturing.

  4. 04

    Inspection and FAT

    We inspect equipment at the factory and check completeness and export packing.

  5. 05

    Logistics and customs

    We deliver the equipment, including oversized units, and handle customs and certificates.

  6. 06

    Start-up and support

    We organise installation, furnace heat-up and line ramp-up, staff training, service and spares.

Questions and answers

Yes, made to your drawings or product samples.

Yes. Upgrades often start with inspection and packing, which quickly raises yield.
