2Recipe Selection + Tempering Furnace Control

The redesigned Owl™ 2 Recipe Selection + Tempering Furnace Control System is a

rugged, non-contact optical system to improve tempering furnace control. The

Owl measures glass thickness, type of low-E coating (one, two, or three silver

layers, as well as fourth surface low-E), glass dimensions, and sheet locations.

Inspection information is sent directly to the furnace control system, enabling

the furnace to automatically select a recipe and adjust the heat profile. With the

Owl you will (1) optimize the heat profile and cycle time, (2) minimize distortion,

and (3) optimize flatness. The result is a substantial increase in throughput.

Productivity and quality have been proven to increase over 20%!

The Owl works on batch tempering lines and is effective on clear glass, hard

or soft coat low-E, tinted or reflective glass. The system measures glass widths

of 500-3,500 mm (20-138 inches).

Owl™ 2

Features

» Automatic furnace control selects recipe, heat time, and heat profile

» Optimized heat time/profile saves seconds on every load, increasing production

» Improves optical quality by optimizing heat time or heat profile, preventing overheating small loads and underheating large loads

» Reduces lost production due to recipe changes

» Eliminates operator errors due to incorrect inputs
