The glass manufacturing process consists of five main stages: raw material preparation, batching, melting, forming, and heat treatment.
1. Raw Material Preparation. The primary materials—such as silica sand, soda ash, limestone, and feldspar—are crushed and dried to remove moisture. Any iron-containing components are also treated to eliminate impurities, ensuring the final product has high clarity and quality.
2. Batch Preparation. After the raw materials are processed, they are carefully measured and mixed in specific proportions to create a consistent batch that will be melted later. This step is crucial for achieving the desired properties of the final glass product.
3. Melting. The prepared batch is then heated in a furnace at extremely high temperatures, typically between 1550°C and 1600°C. This process turns the solid materials into a molten, uniform liquid without bubbles or defects, ready for shaping.
4. Forming. Once the glass is in a liquid state, it is shaped into various forms such as flat sheets, bottles, jars, or other glassware using different techniques like blowing, pressing, or drawing. This stage determines the final appearance and function of the glass product.
5. Heat Treatment. To improve the strength and stability of the glass, it undergoes processes like annealing or tempering. Annealing reduces internal stresses, while tempering increases durability by creating a surface compression layer. These treatments ensure the glass is safe and long-lasting for its intended use.
Industrial strainers are wildly used in all type of industrial pipelines, such as power stataion, petrochemical, natual gas,water treatment ect. Y strainer, T strainer and basket strainer with ASME & DIN standard are commonly used by customer. Industrial strainers we provided can cover size from 1/2 inch to 40 inch(DN15-DN1000) matching pressure from class 150 to class 2500(PN10-PN420) which are suitable for operating in the working media temperature from -196℃ to 593℃, as well as material in carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel and duplex steel.
