Glass mould manufacturing
Glass mould manufacturing
Glass mould manufacturing is a vital area of application for continuous casting. TASSO supplies quality cast iron which is specifically attuned for special thermal glass industry requirements. We have been present in the glass segment for many years, and with our unique range of products in both grey and ductile iron grades we are the natural choice of supplier.
In addition to a large range of round profiles, TASSO also produces special profiles for the glass industry, e.g. half-round or D-profiles, which help to reduce costs significantly as less machining of these customized materials is required.
Applications for the glass industry include for example full moulds, neck rings, baffles, funnels, plungers, sleeves. Cast iron from TASSO is among other things used for the production of glass bottles as well as float glass applications.
