Radiation Glass Tempering Furnace
A radiation glass tempering furnace heats glass directly through radiation from heating elements. This type of furnace is suitable for various glass types, including online Low-E glass, ultra-clear glass, screen-printed glass, patterned glass, colored glass, and clear glass.
Top Convection Glass Tempering Furnace
A top convection glass tempering furnace primarily uses convection heating on the upper surface of the glass while heating the bottom side through radiation. This method allows it to temper all glass types that a radiation furnace can handle, with the added capability of tempering off-line Low-E glass.
Full Convection Glass Tempering Furnace
A full convection glass tempering furnace employs convection heating on both the upper and lower surfaces of the glass. This comprehensive heating approach makes it capable of tempering all the glass types mentioned above.
In summary, while radiation furnaces are the most basic and cost-effective, they have lower production capacity and quality. Top convection furnaces offer improved quality and the ability to temper off-line Low-E glass, while full convection furnaces provide the highest production capacity and quality, at a higher price.
