1. Introduction
With the rapid advancement of global construction, automotive, home appliance, electronic information and new energy industries, the demand for high-performance safety glass has shown a sustained growth trend. Tempered glass, known as "safety glass", has become one of the most widely used functional glass products in modern industrial and civil fields due to its outstanding characteristics such as 3-5 times higher impact resistance than ordinary glass, excellent thermal shock resistance, and harmless small granular fragments when broken. The core equipment for achieving the glass tempering process is the glass tempering furnace, which integrates multiple disciplines including mechanical engineering, thermal engineering, automation control, material science and electrical engineering.
Since the birth of the first industrialized glass tempering furnace in the mid-20th century, the equipment has undergone continuous technological iteration and structural optimization. From the initial vertical tempering furnaces to the widely used horizontal convection tempering furnaces today, and from the single small-scale processing equipment to the large-scale, intelligent, energy-saving and high-efficiency production lines, glass tempering furnaces have gradually evolved into a highly specialized and standardized industrial equipment category. In the global glass deep-processing industry chain, the performance level of glass tempering furnaces directly determines the quality, production efficiency and cost control of tempered glass products, and is a key link that affects the core competitiveness of glass processing enterprises. This paper will conduct an all-round and multi-angle analysis of glass tempering furnaces, starting from their basic theoretical basis, and extending to practical applications and future development.
2. Fundamental Principles of Glass Tempering
Before analyzing the structure and working process of glass tempering furnaces, it is essential to clarify the physical and chemical principles behind the glass tempering process, which is the theoretical cornerstone for the design and operation of glass tempering furnaces. Glass tempering, also referred to as glass toughening, is a physical heat treatment method that changes the internal stress state and mechanical properties of glass without altering its chemical composition.
2.1 Thermal Tempering Principle
The vast majority of commercial glass tempering furnaces adopt the thermal tempering process, whose core principle is based on the rapid cooling of heated glass to form a uniform compressive stress layer on the surface and a tensile stress layer inside the glass. Specifically, ordinary flat glass is heated in a tempering furnace to a temperature close to its softening point (generally between 600°C and 650°C, varying slightly with glass composition and thickness), at which the glass internal molecular structure is in a state of high activity and the internal stress is completely eliminated. Subsequently, the heated glass is quickly transferred to the cooling zone of the tempering furnace, where high-speed and uniform cold air is blown onto both sides of the glass surface through a specially designed air grid system.
Due to the rapid cooling rate, the glass surface layer solidifies and contracts first, forming a rigid compressive stress layer, while the internal glass is still in a high-temperature plastic state and continues to cool and contract. As the internal glass gradually cools to room temperature, its shrinkage is constrained by the already solidified surface layer, resulting in a stable tensile stress inside the glass and a compressive stress on the surface. This stress distribution endows tempered glass with exceptional mechanical properties: when subjected to external impact or bending force, the surface compressive stress can offset most of the external tensile stress, significantly improving the glass's impact resistance and bending strength. Moreover, when the tempered glass is broken by an external force exceeding its bearing limit, the internal tensile stress is released instantaneously, causing the glass to break into numerous small obtuse-angle particles, avoiding sharp fragments that cause harm to the human body, thus achieving the safety performance of tempered glass.
2.2 Chemical Tempering Principle
In addition to thermal tempering, a small number of special glass tempering furnaces adopt the chemical tempering process, which is mainly applicable to thin glass (thickness <3mm) and special-shaped glass products that are not suitable for thermal tempering. The chemical tempering principle is to immerse the preheated glass in a molten salt bath containing alkali metal ions with a larger ionic radius at a temperature lower than the glass transition temperature, and realize the ion exchange between the glass surface and the molten salt through the diffusion of alkali metal ions in the glass network structure. For example, sodium ions (Na⁺) on the glass surface are replaced by potassium ions (K⁺) with a larger radius in the molten salt. The volume expansion caused by ion substitution forms a compressive stress layer on the glass surface, thereby improving the mechanical strength and thermal stability of the glass. Although chemical tempering has advantages in processing thin glass, its production cycle is long, the cost is high, and the compressive stress layer is relatively thin, so it is only used in specific industrial fields, and thermal tempering furnaces still dominate the mainstream market.
3. Structural Composition of Glass Tempering Furnace
A complete glass tempering furnace is a complex integrated system composed of multiple functional modules, each module cooperating closely to complete the continuous and stable tempering processing of glass. The typical horizontal glass tempering furnace, which is the most widely used in the industry, mainly includes the feeding system, heating furnace body, conveying system, cooling system, control system and auxiliary systems such as exhaust and dust removal. Each part has a clear functional positioning and precise design requirements.
3.1 Feeding System
The feeding system is the starting end of the glass tempering furnace, responsible for stably and accurately sending the original glass sheets to be processed into the heating furnace. It mainly consists of a loading table, a sheet separating device, a positioning mechanism and a conveying roller table. For automated production lines, the feeding system is often equipped with a robotic arm loading system, which can realize automatic sorting, positioning and feeding of glass sheets, reducing manual labor and improving production efficiency. The positioning mechanism ensures that each glass sheet enters the heating furnace at a fixed position and angle, avoiding deflection or overlapping that affects the heating uniformity. For large-format glass, the feeding system is designed with anti-deformation support structures to prevent the glass from bending or breaking during the feeding process due to its own weight.
3.2 Heating Furnace Body
The heating furnace body is the core component of the glass tempering furnace, where the glass is heated to the specified tempering temperature, and its performance directly determines the heating efficiency and temperature uniformity of the glass. The heating furnace body is generally a sealed box structure, composed of a furnace shell, a thermal insulation layer, a heating element, a temperature sensor and a furnace inner cavity.
The furnace shell is usually made of high-strength steel plates, with good structural rigidity to ensure the stability of the furnace body during long-term operation. The thermal insulation layer is filled with high-temperature resistant thermal insulation materials such as aluminum silicate fiber and ceramic fiber, which can effectively reduce heat loss, reduce energy consumption and ensure the temperature stability of the furnace inner cavity. The heating element is the heat source of the furnace body, mainly including resistance heating wires, ceramic heating plates and infrared radiation heating tubes. According to different heating methods, it can be divided into radiation heating and convection heating. Traditional tempering furnaces mainly adopt radiation heating, which relies on the infrared radiation emitted by the heating element to heat the glass; modern high-efficiency tempering furnaces add a forced convection system, which circulates the high-temperature gas in the furnace through a convection fan to achieve uniform heating of the glass surface, especially suitable for low-e coated glass and other coated glass products that are sensitive to temperature differences.
Temperature sensors (such as thermocouples) are evenly arranged in the furnace body to collect real-time temperature data of different zones in the furnace, and feed back to the control system to realize closed-loop control of the furnace temperature, ensuring that the temperature difference in the effective heating area is controlled within ±2°C, which is a prerequisite for ensuring the quality of tempered glass. In addition, the heating furnace body is divided into multiple independent temperature control zones according to the length and width, and the temperature of each zone can be adjusted independently to adapt to the heating requirements of glass with different thicknesses and sizes.
3.3 Conveying System
The conveying system runs through the entire glass tempering furnace, responsible for transporting the glass through the feeding area, heating area and cooling area at a controllable speed. It mainly adopts a ceramic roller conveying structure, because ceramic rollers have excellent high-temperature resistance, low thermal expansion coefficient and smooth surface, which will not scratch the glass surface and can maintain stable conveying performance at high temperatures up to 700°C.
The ceramic rollers are driven by a motor and a transmission system (such as a chain or a synchronous belt), and the conveying speed can be adjusted steplessly through the control system. For glass with different thicknesses, the conveying speed in the heating zone and the cooling zone is precisely matched: thicker glass requires a slower conveying speed in the heating zone to ensure sufficient heating time, while thinner glass needs a faster conveying speed to avoid overheating. In addition, the conveying system of high-end tempering furnaces is equipped with a roller speed synchronization control device to ensure that the glass is always in a horizontal and stable state during the conveying process, avoiding deflection or warping caused by inconsistent roller speeds.
3.4 Cooling System
The cooling system is the key module to realize the rapid cooling of the heated glass and form the internal stress of tempered glass, which is composed of an air compressor, an air storage tank, an air grid assembly and an air volume adjustment device. The air grid is the core component of the cooling system, which is divided into upper and lower air grids, arranged symmetrically on the upper and lower sides of the glass conveying path. The surface of the air grid is densely distributed with specially designed air nozzles, which can spray high-pressure and uniform cold air onto the glass surface.
The cooling system of a high-performance glass tempering furnace can realize stepless adjustment of air volume, air pressure and cooling speed according to the thickness, size and type of glass. For example, thick glass requires a relatively gentle cooling rate to avoid excessive temperature stress causing glass bursting, while thin glass needs a higher cooling rate to ensure the formation of effective compressive stress. In addition, the cooling system is equipped with an air circulation and filtration device, which can recycle the cold air after heat exchange, reduce the load of the air compressor and achieve energy saving. The uniformity of the air grid air supply is a key indicator to measure the performance of the cooling system, and uneven air supply will lead to uneven stress distribution of the tempered glass, resulting in quality problems such as glass warping, self-explosion and poor strength.
3.5 Automatic Control System
The automatic control system is the "brain" of the glass tempering furnace, integrating programmable logic controller (PLC), human-machine interface (HMI), temperature control module, speed control module and safety protection module. The control system realizes the automatic operation of the entire tempering process by presetting process parameters for different types of glass.
Operators only need to input glass parameters such as thickness, size and type on the human-machine interface, and the system will automatically match the optimal heating temperature, heating time, conveying speed, cooling air volume and other process parameters. The control system has functions such as real-time data monitoring, fault alarm, parameter storage and historical data query. It can monitor the operating status of each module of the furnace body in real time, and issue an alarm and take protective measures in time when abnormal conditions such as temperature overrun, roller jam, and air pressure abnormality occur. In addition, the intelligent control system of modern glass tempering furnaces is equipped with a network communication interface, which can realize remote monitoring, fault diagnosis and program upgrade, facilitating the management and maintenance of the production line by enterprises.
3.6 Auxiliary Systems
In addition to the above core modules, the glass tempering furnace is also equipped with a series of auxiliary systems to ensure the stable operation of the equipment and compliance with environmental protection requirements. The exhaust gas treatment system is used to discharge the volatile gas and dust generated during the glass heating process, and purify the exhaust gas to meet environmental protection standards; the dust removal system collects the glass dust and impurities generated during the feeding and conveying process to keep the inside of the furnace clean; the cooling water circulation system is used to cool the motor, transmission system and electrical components of the equipment to prevent overheating damage; the safety protection system includes emergency stop buttons, safety doors, temperature and pressure overload protection, etc., to ensure the personal safety of operators and the safety of equipment.
4. Classification of Glass Tempering Furnaces
Glass tempering furnaces can be classified from multiple perspectives according to different structural forms, processing technologies, application scenarios and automation levels. The classification is conducive to the selection and application of equipment in different industrial fields. The main classification methods are as follows:
4.1 Classification by Structural Form
According to the conveying and processing structure, glass tempering furnaces are mainly divided into horizontal glass tempering furnaces and vertical glass tempering furnaces. Horizontal glass tempering furnaces adopt a horizontal conveying method, with glass lying flat on the ceramic roller table for heating and cooling. They have the advantages of large processing format, high production efficiency, good glass flatness, and suitability for mass production of various flat glass. They are the most widely used type in the market, covering almost all fields of tempered glass production. Vertical glass tempering furnaces adopt a vertical hanging conveying method, with glass vertically suspended and sent into the furnace for processing. They have a small floor area and are suitable for processing small and medium-sized glass and special-shaped glass, but their production efficiency is low and the processing format is limited, so they are only used in a small number of special processing scenarios.
4.2 Classification by Heating Method
According to the heating method of the furnace body, glass tempering furnaces are divided into radiation heating tempering furnaces and convection heating tempering furnaces. Radiation heating tempering furnaces rely on the infrared radiation of heating elements to heat glass, with a simple structure and low cost, suitable for processing ordinary clear float glass. However, the heating uniformity is relatively poor, and it is easy to cause uneven heating of coated glass, resulting in quality defects. Convection heating tempering furnaces add a forced convection circulation system on the basis of radiation heating, which uses high-temperature hot air to convectively heat the glass surface, greatly improving the heating uniformity and heating speed. They are especially suitable for processing low-e coated glass, solar coated glass, colored glass and other special glass products, and have become the mainstream development trend of modern tempering furnaces.
4.3 Classification by Processing Capacity and Scale
According to the processing capacity and production scale, glass tempering furnaces are divided into small and medium-sized laboratory tempering furnaces, medium-sized industrial production tempering furnaces and large-scale continuous production tempering furnaces. Small and medium-sized laboratory tempering furnaces are mainly used for glass tempering process research, product development and small-batch sample production, with small processing format, low power and flexible operation. Medium-sized industrial production tempering furnaces are suitable for small and medium-sized glass processing enterprises, with moderate processing capacity and cost, meeting the production needs of conventional tempered glass products. Large-scale continuous production tempering furnaces are designed for large glass processing groups, with ultra-large processing format, high-speed continuous production capacity, high degree of automation and intelligent integration, and can realize 24-hour uninterrupted production, suitable for large-scale orders in construction, automotive and other industries.
4.4 Classification by Process Purpose
According to different process purposes and processed glass types, glass tempering furnaces are also divided into flat glass tempering furnaces, bent glass tempering furnaces, laminated glass supporting tempering furnaces, and ultra-thin glass tempering furnaces. Among them, the bent glass tempering furnace is equipped with a bending mold and a bending control system in the heating zone, which can heat and bend the glass while tempering, producing curved tempered glass for automotive windshields, architectural curved curtain walls and other fields.
5. Glass Tempering Process Flow
The complete glass tempering process realized by the glass tempering furnace is a standardized and continuous operation flow, and each process link must be strictly controlled to ensure the quality of tempered glass. The standard process flow of the horizontal thermal glass tempering furnace is as follows:
5.1 Original Glass Preparation
Before entering the tempering furnace, the original glass sheets need to be cut, edged, polished and cleaned. Cutting is to cut the large-format original glass into the required size according to the design requirements; edging and polishing are to remove the sharp edges and burrs generated during cutting, because the micro-cracks on the glass edge will become the stress concentration point during the tempering process, leading to glass bursting; cleaning is to remove the oil, dust and impurities on the glass surface through a glass cleaning machine, avoiding the formation of spots or defects on the glass surface during heating and affecting the appearance quality of tempered glass.
5.2 Automatic Feeding
The cleaned and inspected qualified glass sheets are placed on the feeding table of the tempering furnace, and the feeding system positions and separates the glass sheets, then sends them into the heating furnace body one by one through the conveying roller table at a set speed. For automated production lines, this process is completed by a robotic arm without manual intervention.
5.3 High-Temperature Heating
The glass enters the heating furnace body and is conveyed forward slowly through the ceramic roller table. The heating element and convection system in the furnace heat the glass uniformly, and the temperature is raised to the tempering temperature (600-650°C) and maintained for a certain period of time. The heating time is determined by the glass thickness, type and furnace temperature: the thicker the glass, the longer the heating time required to ensure that the glass internal temperature reaches the softening state and the internal stress is completely eliminated. During the heating process, the control system monitors the furnace temperature in real time and adjusts the heating power to ensure temperature uniformity.
5.4 Rapid Cooling (Tempering)
After the heating is completed, the glass is quickly conveyed from the heating furnace to the cooling zone. The upper and lower air grids of the cooling system spray high-pressure uniform cold air onto the glass surface instantly, realizing rapid and uniform cooling. The cooling speed is precisely controlled according to the glass thickness, forming a stable compressive stress layer on the glass surface and a tensile stress layer inside, completing the tempering process. This link is the most critical step in determining the performance of tempered glass, and any deviation in cooling speed or uniformity will lead to unqualified product quality.
5.5 Unloading and Quality Inspection
The tempered glass after cooling is conveyed to the unloading table by the conveying system, and the operator or automatic inspection equipment conducts quality inspection on the tempered glass. The inspection items include appearance quality (no scratches, spots, bubbles, etc.), dimensional accuracy, flatness, stress distribution, and impact resistance. Qualified products are packaged and stored, while unqualified products are screened out for reprocessing or scrap treatment.
6. Application Fields of Tempered Glass Produced by Tempering Furnaces

In interior decoration, tempered glass partitions and doors and windows have good light transmittance and safety performance, improving the space utilization rate and aesthetic feeling of the building. In addition, laminated tempered glass and insulating tempered glass processed on the basis of tempered glass are also widely used in building energy-saving and sound insulation projects.
6.2 Automotive Industry
The automotive industry has extremely strict requirements on glass safety and performance, and almost all automotive glass (except for individual small decorative glasses) is tempered glass or laminated tempered glass produced by tempering furnaces. Automotive front windshields generally adopt laminated tempered glass, which can maintain integrity even when broken, avoiding fragments from hurting passengers; automotive side windows and rear windshields adopt single-piece tempered glass, which can be quickly broken into small particles in case of accidents, facilitating passenger escape. In addition, automotive sunroofs, rearview mirror glasses and instrument panel protective glasses also use high-quality tempered glass processed by precision tempering furnaces.
6.3 Home Appliance and Electronic Products
In the home appliance industry, tempered glass is used in the door panels of refrigerators, ovens, microwave ovens, the panels of induction cookers, the shells of washing machines, and the screens of televisions. The high thermal stability of tempered glass can adapt to the high-temperature working environment of kitchen appliances, and its high strength can resist collision and scratch during use. In the electronic information industry, with the popularization of smart phones, tablet computers, liquid crystal displays and other products, ultra-thin tempered glass processed by chemical or special thermal tempering furnaces is used as the protective screen of electronic products, with high hardness, scratch resistance and impact resistance, protecting the display screen from damage.

7.2 Existing Challenges
Despite the rapid development of glass tempering furnace technology, there are still some challenges in the industrial application process. Firstly, the problem of self-explosion of tempered glass has not been completely solved.
