Why the Artificial Glass Blowing Moulding Technology Is Not Eliminated?

What are the advantages of artificially blown glass products? In fact, its advantage is that it can maximise the consumer's personalised needs.

 

Our daily life, many products are batch production, such as glass is also, but batch production is only for those standardised products, for those personalised requirements of the product, I'm afraid that batch production will not be able to meet the consumer's personalised requirements, and that's why in the processing of glass products but also to retain the artificial blowing method of reason.

 

What are the advantages of artificially blown glass products? In fact, its advantage is that it can maximise the consumer's personalised needs. The reason why artificially blown glass products have a higher value, not only has a practical function, but also contains the spirit of craftsmanship, it can be said that artificially blown glass products are no longer cold appliances, it has a temperature, has a personality.

And batch production is difficult to achieve this.

 

So, what is the process of artificially blown glass? There are roughly 10 steps, which are picking materials, blowing large and small bubbles, heating and temperature control, stretching, bottoming, annealing, popping, grinding and baking.

 

Different glass products will have different blowing steps, but roughly not too different, such as picking, stretching, annealing, popping, heating and temperature control are required.

Manual blowing can not only meet the needs of individuality, but also has a feature of changing from one product to another when the response is particularly fast, the machine simply can not be compared.

 

The biggest advantage of manual blowing is the unique shape, delicate and dynamic, but at the same time there is inevitably a smaller output, higher production costs. Therefore, the local in the play of artificial blowing characteristics at the same time, but also increased investment in automated mechanism production line, and gradually achieve the upgrading of traditional industries.

 

This pull tappet process is the most difficult process of glass goblet, the length of the tappet (goblet tappet) (error) is generally controlled in one to two millimetres, and the thickness of the tappet (error) is controlled in about 0.5 millimetres, so it all depends on the workers' consciousness (experience) to operate.

 

High-end, personalised products are blown by hand. Simple, standardised products are given to machines for mass production. Manual blowing and machine production "two-legged" walk. In this way, under the premise of meeting market demand, not only to ensure the quality of products, but also to retain their own characteristics.
