BUBBLE DIAGNOSIS – INTRODUCTORY TRAINING
From cause to cure, master the science and solutions for bubble control.
Bubbles and seeds are leading causes of production rejections in glass manufacturing. This course addresses the root causes of these defects, covering everything from batch-to-melt conversion to downstream gas sources during forming. It explores the chemical and physical processes that drive bubble formation and provides strategies for effectively managing bubble-related issues, ensuring superior glass quality throughout production.
You should attend if you are interested in:
- Batch decarbonization, bubble formation, and interaction with the glass melt
- Bubble ascent and glass flow velocities
- Gas solubility, chemical fining and refining
- Physical fining
- Reboil mechanisms
- Downstream sources of gases and forming bubbles
- Practical guidelines in case of bubble upset
What you take away:
- Have a step-by-step approach to detect and resolve bubble problems
- Understand the many origins of bubbles
- Comprehend the numerous chemical and physical phenomena that contribute to bubble removal
- Understand how experimental and numerical tools can help identify and resolve root causes in the event of a bubble crisis
Level of seniority
This training is meant for batch, furnace and quality team members who must deliver good quality glass, support and make decisions in case of a bubble upset. They will get a better understanding of the phenomenon at stake and sharper troubleshooting abilities.
