Putting the glass furnace into production before the heating of refractory materials is completed may cause the following effects:
Damage of refractory materials
Thermal shock cracking: If the refractory materials are not fully heated, the sudden temperature rise may cause cracking or peeling.
Decrease in structural strength: The strength of the material that has not been fully heated is insufficient and is easily damaged by mechanical and thermal stress.
Reduced production efficiency
Uneven temperature: The temperature in the kiln is unstable, which affects the uniformity of glass melting and leads to a decrease in product quality.
Increased energy consumption: More energy is required to maintain the temperature, increasing production costs.
Product quality problems
Bubbles and impurities: Uneven temperature may cause bubbles or unmelted impurities in the glass.
Dimensional and appearance defects: Temperature fluctuations may cause dimensional deviations or surface defects.
Safety hazards
Kiln structure risks: Damage to refractory materials may weaken the kiln structure and increase the risk of collapse or leakage.
Operational hazards: Unstable temperature may cause accidents and endanger the safety of operators.
Increased maintenance costs
Frequent maintenance: Damaged refractory materials need to be replaced frequently, increasing maintenance costs.
Loss of production suspension: Production suspension during maintenance affects production progress and revenue.
Conclusion: Starting the furnace early may lead to damage to refractory materials, reduced efficiency, lower product quality, safety hazards and increased maintenance costs. Ensure that the refractory materials are fully heated before starting the furnace to avoid these problems.
