FC-zone – existing heating chamber replacement

High air volume full-convection system with closed circulation


Three reasons for choosing FC-zone

1.

Extended machine lifetime with a completely new heating chamber

2.

Energy-efficient, high-capacity Low-E processing without any compromise in quality

3.

Ease of use with Glaston iControL automation

FC Series-based heating chamber upgrade


The Glaston FC-zone heating chamber upgrade with the latest iControl automation system is designed to be a quick and cost-efficient modification for your existing tempering line. The upgrade replaces a damaged or outdated furnace chamber and control system, helping you avoid acquiring a completely new tempering line.

This upgrade replaces an existing heating chamber with the latest FC Series-based chamber, quickly modernizing your furnace. The FC-zone heating chamber replacement has been developed in close cooperation with glass producers to respond to the most pressing needs of today’s flat tempering industry. FC-zone enables you to decrease energy costs and increase Low-E production.
