Good glass quality does not depend solely
on correct preparation and handling of the
materials to be melted. Efficient operation
of the batch charger is also important.

Modern batch chargers must fulfil many
criteria. For instance, the prevention of dust
formation during the charging process is
absolutely vital. Nowadays environmental
factors also play an increasingly important
role in this part of the glass production pro-
cess, and the batch charger can have a
positive influence on NOx emissions and
the heat balance of a furnace. The charging
and distribution method is also important as
the requirement for a closed batch blanket
or separate batch piles varies according to
the furnace type.

EME supply not only standard tube, screw,
pusher, vibratory and chute chargers, in
stationary and oscillating versions, but also
specially designed equipment, so all cus-
tomer requirements can be met.
