    Batch charging system installed in front of the glass melting furnace for continuous feeding of raw material

    Batch chargers are placed at the hot end of a flat glass production line, right before the melting furnace. Its job is to continuously feed raw materials onto the glass melt. The charging paddles move back and forth at a slight angle (about 10°), pushing the mix forward into the furnace. As the charging paddles push the mix forward, fresh material from the hopper drops down by gravity and spreads into a thin layer, with the gate controlling how much passes through. Keeping this flow steady is important because it allows the raw materials to melt at a consistent rate, reducing temperature fluctuations inside the furnace and helping the glass maintain stable quality throughout production.

    To keep raw materials flowing evenly, the system uses two drive stations and three clutches that can be combined in different ways. This makes the feeding shovels move together in sync, so the material is delivered continuously without interruptions.

    The box is built with precise welding, so it doesn’t bend or lose shape, and then it’s heat-treated to make it even stronger. Inside, stronger stainless-steel plates are used, which can handle high temperatures without losing stability. This makes the box more reliable in daily use and lowers the risks that usually come with long-term operation.

    The lift-out roller table is built with a steel frame that has a circulating water system inside. This cooling setup prevents the frame from bending or losing shape when exposed to high heat. The bearings are also water-cooled, which reduces wear and extends their service life. Thanks to this design, the machine can keep running reliably even during long periods of continuous production at high temperatures.

    The stirring depth can be adjusted depending on production needs. As the blades move, they generate vortexes in the molten glass that collide and mix together. This motion helps mix the molten glass thoroughly, making sure it stays even in both composition and quality before it goes into the forming stage.
