In this video we use an example of a glass bottle to show how it's done.
How is Glass Made
We will visit O. Berk's industrial plant to understand how glass is made.
We start with the design of the product to be made, in this case we use a glass bottle as an example. Using 3D modeling software, we model the product.
And then the tools (molds) of metals, which are needed for the production of the bottle, are made.
The raw material is based on the fusion of sand, calcium carbonate and limestone, which are brought to the factory by truck. Recycled glass is added along with them. The advantage of glass is that it is 100% recyclable.
Materials are mixed in storage silos. The kiln that fuses sand, calcium carbonate, limestone and recycled glass is operated 24 hours a day at a temperature of 1500 degrees centigrade.
Going through the refining, the temperature drops to 1,200 degrees, making the mixture have a soft and flexible texture.
With perfect timing, the blade cuts the glass, where it is directed to the first mold.
From the first mold, the glass is transferred to the blow mold, which is heated and blown into its final shape. The bottle is still hot when this step is completed.
The first quality inspection is done visually.
Continuing with the process, the bottles are reheated to 560 degrees and slowly cooled to 200 degrees.
Leaving the belt, an external coating is applied to increase its resistance during transport.
It is also checked for cracks or cracks in the final quality inspection.
Its packaging is done with care so that the product reaches the point of sale perfectly.
And in this way we know how glass is made.
