Core Melting and Fiber-Drawing Equipment
Fiber-Drawing Furnace (Pool Furnace): Used to melt batch materials at high temperatures into a homogeneous glass melt; it serves as the core heat source for the entire production line.
Platinum-Rhodium Alloy Bushing: Features hundreds of tiny orifices that divide and draw the molten glass into ultra-fine filaments; it is the critical component determining fiber diameter precision.
Spinning and Forming Equipment
Direct Roving Machine: Designed for the specific properties of fiberglass, this machine uses double-apron drafting and dual-row twisting mechanisms to convert fiber strands into uniform roving. It achieves delivery speeds of 60–180 meters per minute, meeting mass production requirements.
High-Performance Industrial Yarn Energy-Saving Twister: Utilizes a direct-twist process that combines yarn plying, primary twisting, and re-twisting into a single operation. Equipped with proprietary twist-uniforming devices and anti-static systems, it processes ultra-fine fiberglass with filament diameters of only 1–3 microns, meeting the high-strength and low-fuzz requirements of the high-end electronics and aerospace sectors.

Fiberglass Plying Machine: Features variable-frequency speed control and automatic stop-on-break functions; it combines multiple strands of raw yarn into plied yarn of a specified fineness while ensuring uniform yarn tension.
Drying and Post-Processing Equipment
Microwave Dryer:Available in conveyor-belt, batch, and hybrid microwave-hot-air types. These offer 50% greater energy efficiency than traditional dryers, precisely controlling yarn package moisture content to 1% to prevent fiber scorching and improve film-forming impregnation.
Tunnel/Batch Drying Oven: Large-scale pool furnace enterprises typically use continuous tunnel dryers, while small-to-medium enterprises use batch dryers to dry and set raw yarn packages in batches.
Heat-Setting Machine: Performs rapid heat treatment on plied yarn within the 80–120°C range to enhance yarn bundle integrity and optimize the resilience and hand-feel for downstream processing.
