July/August 2010

The July/August issue brings news of the selected recipient of 2010's prestigious Phoenix Award. Features include mould equipment, which also forms the basis of John Henderson's 'Technical topics' column, as well as quality control, which includes worthy contributions from various inspection equipment specialists. A special standalone article discusses oxygen and natural gas preheating for oxy-float glass - the result of a collaboration between Air Liquide and AGC Glass Europe.

Meanwhile, the regular 'Events world' feature previews of both the ICG 2010 and the SGT annual conferences and reviews this year's Mir Stekla exhibition.
