New Technology for Producing Mineral-Wool Products

Glass and Ceramics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

A new technology for forming multilayer mineral-wool mats by zig-zag pendulum layering of the primary mineral mat is described. It consists in forming variable-height loops in the primary mineral-wool mat in order to equalize the feed rate of the primary mineral-wool mat to the pendulum layering device and the circular velocity of the pendulum at the point of egress from it of the primary mineral-wool mat over the entire extent of the zig-zag layering pattern of the primary mat. Analytical formulas are given for calculating the parameters of the technology implementing the new method of zig-zag pendulum layering of mineral-wool mats.
