Float glass linear motors

Our range of linear motors are used in float glass plants around the world. Linear induction motors are frequently used at the inlet end of the bath. They control the transverse temperature distribution across the bath by maintaining transverse tin flows from the centre towards the sides of the bath.

We have designed, manufactured and repaired many different types of linear motors and can tailor specifications to your exact requirements.

For example; 6 and 12 pole linear motors with or without control panels, moveable standing linear motors and also de-dross linear motors. We can also design linear motors to any sizes or shape you may need. We are working with glass plants all over the world to develop our range.

De-drosser linear motors

We also manufacture de-drosser linear motors which are used to remove polluted tin systems which make the job of removing the pollutions easily.

We manufacture standard de-drosser motors, and T-shaped for confined spaces.
