- Evacuation of containers
- Lamination
Glass Production
Wittig has been a trusted partner in providing pressure and vacuum for the glass industry for more than 50 years. In fact, some of our machines which were supplied and commissioned in 1965 are still running today! A testament to our engineering expertise.Â
The industrial production of packaging and bottle glass requires a special breed of vacuum pump because of the very high quantities required. The production site must be able to keep up with this high demand, as the process does not allow for downtime. Systems in the glass production industry typically operate 24/7, 365 days a year.
Large volumes of vacuum are therefore required, meaning it is crucial that all units and components are high quality and extremely reliable. Equipment failure during production invariably results in enormously high costs! Rotary vane vacuum pumps offer the best solution for industries that require continuous 24-hour operation and maximum reliability.Â
Our series WPSO rotary vane vacuum pumps offer the world's most durable and efficient solution to vacuum generation in the bottle glass industry. The WPSO series has by far the lowest life cycle costs for glass plants. Find out more about the WPSO including specifications, capacity and vacuum range:Â
