BKO" JSC has perfected an assembly-stand technology for the elements of a glass-making furnace, first and foremost, the furnace bottom. Coordinated studies were performed to ensure that the accuracy of the stand meets the requirements: a stand with planarity deviations ± 0.5 mm was designed and built, the preparation technology (cutting and grinding) for the block articles for the assembly stand with minimum admissible deviations (linear dimensions ± 0.25 mm; inclinations less than 0.2 mm) was perfected, and the assembly stand technology itself was perfected. The technology developed was used to assemble other elements of the furnace: feed pans of the glass-forming machines, regenerator arches, and loading hoppers. An assembly stand makes it possible decrease substantially the assembly time of a glass-making furnace, lower the construction costs, and develop favorable conditions for laying other elements of the furnace, all which taken together increase the service life of a furnace.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
