Automotive glass bending

To enable the production of high-quality windshields, backlites, sidelites and rooftops, tooling needs to be equipped with resilient, soft, high temperature resistant materials to prevent the tempered and laminated glass from being scratched or damaged. Selection of the right materials depends on your furnace, the glass to be produced, the product lifetime and the optics to be achieved.
