The real and virtual pointer reflected images are acquired at high frequency enabling thus to establish the actual level of the glass with absolute precision.

• No limits on charging position • Automatic loading control • Batch quantity setup: independent setting of pusher stroke and velocity • Remote machine setup from control panel in control room • No mechanical intervention required
For each rotating turret position it is possible to choose: • Batch quantity • The shape of the pile • The opening of the bin • The pusher impulse
• It rests on the palisade block of the doghouse • Prevention of parasitic air from entering into the melting tank • Internal pressure totally under control • Effective dusting reduction in doghouse area • Total doghouse sealing • Reduction of energy consumption • Low NOx emissions
• For double doghouse furnaces, each machine can be set separately and synchronized with combustion reversal, in order to feed more or less batch depending on the combustion side
Model Size
• GTBC-TR1 up to 80 TPD • GTBC-TR2 up to 160 TPD • GTBC-TR3 up to 250 TPD • GTBC-TR4 up to 380 TPD • GTBC-TR5 up to 550 TPD
Technical Features
• OPTIMIZATION OF BATCH DISTRIBUTION IN THE MELTING AREA • SHORT time required for machine setup change
• The pusher opening angle and the stroke velocity may be set independently for each turret position • The batch quantity can be controlled by pusher velocity, as usual, and also by pusher stroke length • The setup of the pusher and the turret rotation may be operated by the control panel • Stop Positions: the turret can be set in many different positions

Meausuring, Control and SUPERVISING System
All electronic devices are integrated in a single control panel located in the control room or in the doghouse area. PLC and HMI touch screen are installed in the control cabinet. Operator interface can easy control: • Oscillating position • Angle • Residence time • Number of strokes • Rotation sequence Pusher: • Zero point • Stroke • Velocity
Alarm All functions are surveyed and they are optically and acoustically indicated should any failure occur. If required, basic control module is available with std. batch charger.
