Refine Your Glass Powder Processing with JS Vibro’s Advanced Sieving and Blending Systems
In the glass manufacturing sector, the consistency and purity of raw materials like silica powder, feldspar, soda ash, and recycled cullet directly impact product quality and furnace efficiency. These materials often include oversized particles, contaminants, or moisture-laden clumps that hinder batch uniformity.
A specialty glass producer collaborated with JS Vibro to improve the handling and blending of glass-grade powders, aiming for better melting characteristics, reduced rejection rates, and improved production speed..
JS Vibro delivered a complete solution using its Vibro Sifter and Ribbon Blender, designed specifically for fine, aromatic powders with hygroscopic properties.
Purpose-Built Systems for the Glass Industry
Vibro Sifter was deployed to sieve out oversize contaminants, fine iron particles, and moisture-induced agglomerates—ensuring a clean, uniform feedstock for melting and forming processes.
Ribbon Blender provided controlled, dust-minimized mixing of silica with additives like boron oxide or colorants, enhancing homogeneity without altering the granule size or density.
