Quenching Conveyors
Carrier quenching conveyors continuously process glass safely and reliably. Transporting quenched, fractured glass from a basement to a furnace used to be an intensive, hazardous job.
- Quenches and solidifies glass cullet.
- Water pools are incorporated to receive molten glass gobs to quench, cool, and thermo-fracture for ease of handling and reuse of materials.
- Special rubber spring and aluminum rocker arm assembly designed for quenching applications where coil and leaf springs fail.
- Dewatering ramps separate glass cullet and fines from water bath.
- Vertical dividers allow different materials to be handled simultaneously without cross-contamination.
Supported from below or suspended from above on soft steel coil or rubber isolation springs to reduce the dynamic reaction to surrounding structures.
- Optional counterbalanced design, combined with isolation springs, reduces the dynamic reaction by 98%.
