Horn Glass Industries has successfully modernised and automated a tin bath.
The project was completed at Guardian Glass Corsicana, a float glass and coated architectural glass manufacturer in Texas, USA, from January to May 2026.
The company supplied extensive equipment to optimise operation, including 14 top rollers including camera systems, a pusher, a tweel upgrade, an exit cooler upgrade and a dross box hood.
In addition, the complete control system for the supplied equipment (SCADA) will be delivered and integrated into the existing system.
It was also responsible for the refractory repair and replacement work in the tin bath area.
The company carried out bottom blocking, as well as work on the tin bath roof, including refractory material and heating elements.
The project also achieved an important milestone with the successful ribbon pull on 29 April.
