Glaston Adaptive Quench Upgrade
Smarter Quenching. Lower Energy Costs, Every Load.
Three reasons for choosing Glaston’s Adaptive Quench Upgrade:
1.
Cuts energy use when processing shorter loads
2.
Automatically adapts to loading length, no manual adjustment needed
3.
Optimized energy efficiency without compromising glass quality
Why use full-load quenching energy for a partial load?
The Glaston Adaptive Quench Upgrade brings smart, load-aware efficiency to RC/FC Series batch tempering lines. The system automatically detects loading length and adjusts chiller operation accordingly so energy use matches actual production, not maximum capacity.
Traditional quenching systems apply the same cooling power whether loading utilization is 10% or 90%. Adaptive Quench changes that: by optimizing the quench air blow area for shorter loads (up to 1800 mm below max loading length), the system delivers significant energy savings without compromising tempering quality.
The upgrade includes an air-blow-area-shortening device, installed in the air distribution center, paired with adaptive quench software that limits glass oscillation to the shortened loading area, ensuring stable, precise processing at any load size.
