  • Electronic system to control cooling of molds in glassware forming machines
    Patent number: 4654066
    Abstract: An electronic system to control the cooling of molds in glassware forming machines, wherein the articles and/or the molds in which said articles are being produced, are subjected to a suitable cooling to control the thermal relation therebetween so that the articles can be suitable handled and shaped. In this system, the velocity of the machine, the heat profile of the glass gobs and the gob weight are continuously detected and fed as signals to a microprocessor which determines the heat exitation of the molds when receiving the glass gobs, in order to control the necessary cooling air flow rate and compensate for variations in the thermal conditions of the molds.
