In order to achieve consistent product quality on glass float lines, the temperature across the width of the glass must be kept as uniform as possible. This applies throughout the process: from the initial floating and forming in the bath, to the cooling and annealing sections in the lehr.
The Land FLT5/A is designed specifically for use in float lines, measuring glass surface temperature in the range 250 to 1100°C, with excellent precision and long-term stability.
