ZIPPE
new orders

from wiegand-glas

In the past weeks, Wiegand-Glas has placed
several orders with Zippe Industrieanlagen
GmbH for its plant site in Steinbach am Wald.
The first order is for a new batch transport system
from an existing batch house to the furnace. The
challenge of this order is the installation of the belt
bridge system. The belt bridges need to be mounted
without intervening in the glass plant´s operations.
Commissioning of this batch transport will still be
realized in 2017.
The largest order of this series is a new batch house.
In 2018 it will be installed on the premises of a
former batch plant. The new batch plant is designed
to supply multiple furnaces. It is equipped with two
intensive mixers with a capacity of 2250 litres each.
This order also includes the connection to the batch
transport for a new melting furnace. This plant will
start operations at the end of 2018.
One of the orders comprises a further batch
transport system from the new batch house to an
existing furnace. This plant will also start operations
at the end of 2018.
3d-View of the new batch house Zippe will execute all these orders on
wiegand steinbach (without cladding) a turnkey basis.
