Glass Vs Batch No Contest!

Higher Yield

Over 25% of batch is lost up the flue during melting. With Studio Nuggets, what you melt is what you get nearly 100%.

Lower Energy Bills

Studio Nuggets require one-third less energy to melt than batch. Picture your energy bill and do the math.

Faster Melts

These Noogies melt 25% faster than batch, increasing daily production time and further reducing energy

Double Refractory Life

With zero dust and insignificant effluent "noogies" can double the life of your furnace or pots.

Trivial Pollution Zero Toxicity

In both handling and melting, these concerns move from substantial to negligible when you switch from batch to System 96 Studio Nuggets.

Greater Stability

With Studio Nuggets there's never a concern about compatibility changes during melting. Easier Storage Go ahead leave it outside! There's no concern about damage or loss from exposure to moisture, light or other elements.

Glass: The Perfect Melt.

Preliminary Melting Guidelines:

• Set at 2200F 50 lb. charges, wait until surface has leveled off, then charge again.

• Hold at 2100F to 2200F for two or more hours. Then ramp down as slow as your schedule permits to the desired working temperature.

• Common working temperatures are 2075F to 2125F.

• "Squeezing" the glass 50F to 100F degrees below the working temperature for at least 30 minutes will help reduce seeds.

• Anneal at 950F to 960F.
