Glass Furnace Thermocouples

Glass manufacturing is a highly Temperature-sensitive process that demands precision, reliability, and consistency. Thermocouples are critical components in measuring and controlling Temperature across various stages of the glassmaking process. At Ajmer Thermotech Pvt. Ltd., we manufacture a wide range of high-performance thermocouples engineered to withstand the harsh environments of glass furnaces and improve operational efficiency across various types of glass manufacturing.

Types of Glass Manufacturers We Serve

Our thermocouples are trusted by a broad spectrum of glass manufacturers, including:

1. Container Glass Manufacturers

• Used for making bottles, jars, and other packaging items.
• Requires accurate control in forehearth and feeder zones to ensure consistent bottle formation.

2. Flat Glass Manufacturers

• Produces glass sheets used in windows, doors, architecture, and automotive industries.
• Needs uniform Temperature Control in large furnaces and lehrs for optimal thickness and clarity.

3. Fiberglass Manufacturers

• Involves continuous melting and fiber drawing processes.
• Requires specialized thermocouples for high-speed, high-Temperature zones.

4. Specialty Glass Manufacturers
