Forming

Container glass forming — the conversion of molten glass into bottles, jars, and other hollow ware — uses individual section (IS) machines as the primary forming equipment worldwide. IS machine speed and efficiency directly determine plant productivity. The GCC container glass market is served by plants in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan, with ongoing capacity investment driven by F&B demand. We supply container glass forming equipment.

What we supply

• Individual section (IS) machines — 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 section configurations
• Gob feeders — single, double, and triple gob for high-speed production
• Blank and blow moulds — cast iron, stainless steel, mould cooling equipment
• Annealing lehrs — continuous for stress relief and controlled cooling
• Hot end coating systems — tin oxide and titanium oxide for surface hardening
• Cold end inspection equipment — electronic inspection for dimensional and quality checks
• Ware handling — cross conveyors, pushers, and palletisers

How the project proceeds

1. Define the container type, weight, shape, and production rate
2. Select IS machine configuration and section count for the target output
3. Source moulds, feeders, and forming equipment from qualified manufacturers
4. Support machine commissioning and first production qualification

Why Infinity

IS machine productivity depends critically on mould quality and cooling efficiency. We source moulds from specialist manufacturers, not the cheapest option — poor mould quality causes production loss that far exceeds the mould cost saving.
