What are the functions of stainless steel fiber fabric in glass production?

In glass production, stainless steel fiber fabric primarily serves two core functions: high-precision temperature control and cleanliness protection.

1. Kiln thermal field adjustment

Stainless steel fibers, with their excellent high-temperature resistance, can be woven into specially-sized fiber cloths for installation inside glass melting furnaces. This allows for precise control of the heat field distribution within the furnace, reducing bubbles or color differences caused by uneven local temperatures in the glass melt.

2. Filtration and protection

In the production of high-end specialty glass, stainless steel fiber fabric, serving as the functional layer of composite filter material, is embedded into the filtration device. It can precisely intercept tiny impurities in the glass liquid, preventing product defects. During the molding of certain specialty glass, it can be covered on the mold surface to prevent high-temperature adhesion of the glass and enhance the surface smoothness of the product.
