The UN has declared 2022 the “International Year of Glass”. This places much more concentrate on manufacturing conditions within the energy-intensive glass industry, and efficient applied sciences alongside the whole worth chain are significantly in demand. Vacuum expertise also has a significant affect on sustainability in glass manufacturing – as a result of steady vacuum is needed in many processes. Atlas Copco makes a speciality of offering energy-efficient, intelligent, and sustainable vacuum options to manufacturers worldwide. They have equipped the German glass producer Noelle + von Campe with three GHS 4600 VSD+ screw vacuum pumps.
