Operation

Loading

Bending mould is loaded inside oven with top cover tilt opened. Glass is then loaded on mould. Top cover tilts down.

Heating

Glass starts to be heated up with all heating resistors turned on. When it becomes soft, it slowly falls down and approaches to bending mold by means of gravity. Operator begins to turn off proper heating resistors with respect to glass curvature until glass edges get in contact around the rim of bending mould.

Annealing

Glass begins to anneal. If necessary, top cover gradually tilts up to allow annealing in a better and efficient way.

Cooling

When annealing is accomplished, top cover is open at its maximum tilting up position for cooling.

Unloading

When glass is cooled enough for handling, glass is unloaded and removed. Another glass is loaded on bending mould. If glass type is changed, bending mould is replaced by corresponding bending mould. Bending, annealing and cooling cycle are repeated.
