Industrial Tempering Equipment for Consistent Safety Glass Production
Sky Glass supplies glass tempering furnaces for architectural glass, automotive glass and other industrial glass applications, with configurations selected around your actual production requirements.
Choose the Tempering Capability Your Factory Needs
We provide different tempering configurations by application:
Flat Glass Tempering Furnace:For flat tempered safety glass: architectural glazing, doors/windows, curtain walls, shower enclosures, furniture, appliance, solar, and industrial glass. Focus: stable heating, accurate temperature control, and controlled air quenching for consistent flat glass.
Bent Glass Tempering Furnace:For curved or shaped safety glass: automotive windshields, rear windows, side windows, panoramic roofs, curved architectural glass, and specialty bent glass. Forming mechanism maintains repeatable geometry—reducing manual adjustment and improving batch consistency.
Automotive Glass Tempering Furnace:For thin automotive glass, curved windshields, side windows, rear glass, panoramic roofs, and complex aerodynamic profiles. Range includes configurations from approx. 1600×2500 mm to 2440×4200 mm, with product-specific options by glass size and power.

What Makes Tempering Quality Stable?
A furnace can reach the required temperature and still produce inconsistent glass. For commercial production, the critical question is: can the furnace repeatedly deliver the same heating and quenching conditions across different glass sheets?
We focus on four process variables:
Uniform Heating:The heating system distributes heat consistently across the glass surface. More uniform heating reduces temperature differences and supports more consistent tempering results.
Accurate Temperature Control:The control system monitors and regulates heating throughout the cycle—enabling repeatable production recipes instead of manual adjustment.
Stable Glass Movement:Glass moves through the furnace at controlled and repeatable speeds, reducing process variation and contributing to consistent surface quality.
Controlled Air Quenching:Rapid and controlled air cooling creates the required stress distribution. Stable quenching is essential for consistent mechanical strength and fragmentation performance.
Low-E Glass: A Different Tempering Challenge
Low-E glass is more sensitive to thermal processing than ordinary clear glass. The coating changes how the glass absorbs and transfers heat—a furnace designed only for conventional clear glass may not deliver the same results with coated products.
For Low-E processors, key considerations include: Heating uniformity, coating-side temperature control, convection performance, glass movement stability, quenching balance, and optical quality after tempering.
We offer convection-based tempering configurations for demanding coated-glass applications—not to increase heating power, but to achieve more controlled heat transfer across the glass surface.
Thin Glass and Large Glass Require Different Engineering
Glass processors are increasingly handling products that are either thinner, larger, or more technically demanding—each creating very different process challenges.
Thin Glass
Heats and cools differently from conventional thick glass. Requires precise heating and quenching control to achieve the tempering effect without excessive variation. Our automotive range includes configurations for thin glass applications, typically 2.0–4.0 mm.
Large Glass
Large-sized building glass imposes higher requirements on heating uniformity, roller alignment, furnace structure, air flow distribution in the quenching process, loading and unloading, and factory layout. At this point, the equipment should be selected as part of the complete factory workflow.
Control System Designed for Repeatable Production
Our control system manages key production parameters including heating zones, temperature settings, glass movement speed, quenching parameters, production recipes, machine status, and alarm information.
For advanced factory integration, we also support industrial communication protocols such as Modbus, Profinet, and OPC UA.
The Practical Benefit:Instead of treating every order as a new setup, your operators can build repeatable process recipes for commonly produced glass types—shortening setup time and reducing dependence on individual operator experience.
Before production begins, evaluate:
Furnace Footprint:Available length, width, and height.
Material Flow:How glass enters and exits the tempering line.
Crane & Handling:How large glass sheets will be loaded, moved, and unloaded.
Electrical Capacity:Available factory power and required machine load.
Cooling & Ventilation:Factory conditions required for stable operation.
Upstream Equipment:Connection with cutting, grinding, drilling, and washing machines.
Downstream Equipment:Connection with inspection, laminating, insulating glass production, and other finishing processes.
We provide factory planning and machinery integration consultation as part of the project process.
We design and build glass tempering equipment with long-term operation in mind. Our in-house machining resources—including 3 CNC machining centers, 4 grinding machines, 5 CNC lathes, 10 line cutting machines, laser cutting, welding, drilling, and plano milling equipment—give us direct control over component quality and machine assembly.
For you, this means:
- Easier Maintenance Support :We know the machine construction in detail, making troubleshooting and service more efficient.
- Customization Capability: We can adapt equipment configurations to your specific production requirements and glass sizes.
- Replacement-Part Availability :Critical spares are planned and stocked, reducing the risk of extended downtime.
- Long-Term Serviceability:With direct control over manufacturing, we can continue to support equipment over its full service life.
