Glaston ProBend with zero-tooling process


Glaston ProBend combines the latest know-how in heating with excellent control and optimization in the tempering process.

ProBend is based on the unique Glaston Vortex Pro convection system, which enables efficient and accurate heat profiling.

ProBend with Vortex Plus is ideal for mixed, high-capacity production of clear and Low-E glass. Thanks to the excellent heating uniformity, ProBend allows glass processors to achieve the highest glass quality.

ProBend has the capability to temper Low-E glass, especially in large architectural sizes. It is also possible to bend and temper glass coatings against the rollers.

Bending is performed by gravity or by pressing the glass against the rollers to assure high optical glass quality.
