Abstract :
Steady progress in temperature control of glass container lehrs has been made since the early days of glass manufacture. Early control methods are discussed and problems are described which prompted the development of improved control systems. Requirements of modern glass container lehrs are defined and a temperature control system is suggested which helps lehrs to possess the best characteristics of modern heat processing equipment.
