Read our latest article in Glass International where Neil Simpson looks at how to increase energy efficiency using in-furnace thermal glass surveys.
Thermal images from static permanently mounted near infrared borescope thermal imagers can be used to trouble-shoot and optimise furnaces in terms of glass quality and yield, furnace pull, asset protection, and energy and emission reduction.

NIR-B Glass thermal imaging cameras have been operating continuously since 2014 with more than 50 reference installations in glass melting furnaces globally, more recently, transportable instruments are being used to perform dedicated in-furnace thermal surveys of glass melt tanks.
