During the float glass manufacturing process, molten glass, at approximately 1100°C,
is poured continuously from a furnace onto a large bath of molten tin. It then floats, spreads and
forms a controlled level surface on the tin. In the controlled production process, the molten glass is
allowed to spread to a width of 3000 to 4000mm, depending on the glass thickness being produced.
The thickness is controlled by the speed at which the slowly solidifying glass ribbon is drawn through
the tin bath. After about 120m of travel through the cooling lehr, it emerges as a continuous ribbon of
glass at room temperature. The glass is perfectly flat and virtually parallel surfaces. Automatic cutters
are used to trim the edges and to cut across the width of the moving glass ribbon. This creates sizes
which can be shipped or handled for further processing.
