GLASS TEMPERING AND CURVING SYSTEMS

One of the main fields of specialisation of E.M.I. Italia is the design and construction of plate glass tempering and curving systems.

These systems are employed for the production of safety glass to be used for the building, furnishing, automotive, boat-building, household appliances and lighting sectors. They are designed to produce small or large sheets, depending on the required production, and may have one or more heating chambers.
Glass tempering and curving systems are equipped with computer-controlled, high precision automatic handling.

Types of plate glass tempering and curving systems

The plate glass tempering and curving systems proposed by E.M.I. ITALIA with factory in Agrate Brianza, are divided into:

• vertical flat and curved sheet tempering systems with press
• horizontal oscillating rollers systems for flat sheet tempering
• horizontal curved sheet gravity tempering systems

This system consists of a reheating cell placed in a hole, of a curving station with a pneumatic or mechanical press, and a tempering station located at the top.
Extraction of the sheet is done vertically; this allows faster movements which result in better tempering.
These systems are employed for the production of flat and curved tempered plates
