Glass Manufacturing

PRODUCTS THAT CAN HANDLE HARSH MANUFACTURING CONDITIONS

Glass is an ancient product that is more modern than ever. The range of applications of glass with unique properties is practically unlimited. The primary raw material of glass is quartz sand (SiO2), with a hardness of 8 on the Mohs scale (approx. 1120 HV), one of the main reasons for extreme wear. Some glass manufacturers have therefore switched to alternative conveying methods. However, where only pneumatic conveying is possible for process or design reasons, ESSER components are in demand. In addition, nickel is a serious problem for flat glass manufacturers. This element can lead to fracture zones in large glass sheets. The nickel content in the melt must be kept as low as possible.

why choose ESSER TWIN PIPES

WEAR RESISTANT
ESSER TWIN 700 series has an inside hardness of 63 HRC and our ESSER TWIN 900 series hardness is up to 67 HRC.
CENTERING PREVENTS MISALIGNMENT
The centered connection prevents misalignment inside the delivery line. No edges impede the flow of conveyance.
SAVE ENERGY
ESSER pipes are built with smooth interior surfaces and precise pipe transitions. This guarantees the smooth transport of material that reduces energy consumption and CO2 generation.
LOW-NICKEL CHILLED CAST IRON
ESSER TWIN 900 is also available in a Low-Nickel version (Ni < 0.05%) especially for OEMs of flat glass.
QUICK REPLACEMENT
The ease of installation and replacement with Quickfix couplings reduces downtimes and maintenance costs.
CLEAR INDICATION
All pipe parts are clearly identifiable by age-resistant part labels. This enables easy re-ordering in case of maintenance for years.
PIPE DESIGN ACCORDING TO EU STANDARDS
The pipe design is based on the Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68 / EU for safe operation.
