The electricity consumption of a glass tempering furnace varies widely depending on several factors, such as the furnace size, type (horizontal or vertical), efficiency, the thickness and type of glass being processed, and production capacity. However, here are some general estimates:

Glass tempering furnace hourly power consumption

Small Glass Tempering Furnaces: These can consume anywhere from 50 to 200 kWh per hour.

Medium Glass Tempering Furnaces: These typically consume between 200 to 500 kWh per hour.

Large Industrial Glass Tempering Furnaces: These can consume upwards of 500 to 1000 kWh or more per hour, depending on their size and capacity.

Factors Affecting Electricity Consumption of a Glass Tempering Furnace

Furnace Size and Type:

Small Furnaces: Usually consume between 50 to 200 kWh per hour.

Medium Furnaces: Typically consume between 200 to 500 kWh per hour.

Large Furnaces: Can consume 500 to 1000 kWh or more per hour.

Type of Furnace: Horizontal furnaces generally consume more electricity compared to vertical furnaces due to differences in heating mechanisms and loading processes.

Glass Thickness and Type:

Thicker glass requires more heating time and energy, leading to higher electricity consumption.

The type of glass (e.g., low-emissivity, laminated, or tinted glass) may also affect heating requirements.

Production Capacity and Batch Size:

Higher production capacities and larger batch sizes typically result in higher energy consumption due to increased heating and cooling requirements.
