Glass Batching System

Glass batch calculation or glass batching is used to determine the correct mix of raw materials (batch) for a glass melt.In a batch process, all raw materials are added at one time, as opposed to being continually fed into a furnace. The glass is melted in a single vessel or furnace, which is sometimes called a “day tank.” Once the glass is melted, a portion of the glass is removed from the melting vessel and is formed into a product.Glass production involves two main methods – the float glass process that produces sheet glass, and glassblowing that produces bottles and other containers. It has been done in a variety of ways during the history of glass.
