PROMEOS® FOREHEARTH HEATING SYSTEM

Uniform temperature control of the molten glass from the feeder to the feeder head. Side-mounted, flameless linear burners from promeos® ensure precisely controlled temperature throughout the entire feeder channel—no hot spots, no open flames, and no localized overheating of the melt. Feeder heating, developed with Heatelligence®.

HOW IT WORKS

The promeos® feeder heating system combines flameless gas combustion, side-mounted linear burners, and stepless power modulation. It transforms feeder heating—previously a source of local hot spots—into a controlled, homogeneous thermal process across the entire trough: temperature control, thermal homogeneity, and process intelligence in a single system. That’s Heatelligence® by promeos®.

01

Flame-less Heat Transfer

A flameless reaction at the burner surface ensures uniform radiant heat without local hot spots caused by the flame.

02

Lateral Integration

promeos® line burners are integrated into the side of existing feeder structures and produce a uniform temperature profile all the way to the feeder head.

03

Continuously variable power control

The burner output adjusts precisely to the heat demand and ensures a constant glass temperature for stable processes and high product quality.

Controlled Process Flow

01

Analysis

promeos® analyzes feed geometry, glass type, temperature profile, and existing burner technology.

02

Engineering

The burner layout, heat distribution, and control system are precisely tailored to the trough and the heat demand.

03

Integration & Commissioning

The burners are installed, the temperature profile is checked, and the system is commissioned.

04

Remote Service

The PROSA Remote Service Agent monitors the system, detects malfunctions early, and reduces downtime.
