Glass melting technology supplier and turnkey specialist HORN Glass Industries AG was awarded the contract for the general repair of furnace 4 at Noelle + von Campe. The German packaging glass manufacturer relies on HORN to equip furnace 4 with the latest technology. HORN is responsible for the complete planning of the refractories and steel construction for the furnace, distributor and five forehearths.
The regenerative end fired furnace is equipped with state-of-the-art gas heating, measuring and control equipment together with a higher-level control system based on PCS7. A HORN E-Fusion power boosting system brings the electrical power into the glass melt via twelve electrodes.
To cool the electrode holders and further equipment, HORN equips the furnace with a complete cooling water supply. In addition, Noelle + von Campe will be relying on two new HORN HVR 700F-2P batch chargers in the future.
The contract includes furnace drain and demolition as well as the complete construction work for refractory material, steel and equipment. The furnace is then tempered and put into operation by HORN. Commissioning is planned for June 2025.
HORN would like to thank Noelle + von Campe for their trust and is looking forward to a successful project with a specialist in glass packaging.
