Products or Machinery

ZYAROCK® Tweels and Flat Arches
  • Reduced engineering costs
  • Maintenance free operation
  • Easy installation even during hot repair
  • No preheating required
  • Corrosion resistance
  • Exceptional thermal shock resistance
ZYAROCK® Shadow Walls
Vesuvius Zyarock® Shadow walls are manufactured under strict controls to provide optimum ceramic physical properties for stability at ambient and through the highest heat-treating temperatures.
  • Reduces CO2 emission
  • Energy saving
  • Lower maintenance cost
  • Improved sealing
  • High erosion resistance
  • Increased productivity
  • Reduced maintenance time
ZYAROCK® Lehr and Lift-out Rollers
Vesuvius Zyarock® Lehr and Lift-out Rollers are Fused Silica products dedicated to the Float Glass application. The quality of the Fused Silica rollers takes full advantage of the very low reactivity with tin oxide at low temperature typically found in the dross box.They support the glass with minimum thermal and chemical interaction.
 
ZYALITE™ Rolls

VESUVIUS ZYALITE™ Rolls are constructed from highly compressed ceramic fibers which provides a very durable conveying surface virtually resistant to transfer of material to the roll surface or back the surface of the glass. This technology is used for the production of active matrix glass for LCD applications but also in rolled and float glass annealing lehr, and for the vertical draw process.
  • Resistant to build up (tin or sulfate derived compounds)
  • Flatter and more uniformly annealed ribbon
  • Eliminate lehr created optical distortion problems
  • Excellent load bearing: 0.5 mm to 19 mm thick
  • Dimensional stability and low thermal conductivity
  • Very durable
SMARTLY DRIVEN® Tempering Rollers
Vesuvius Zyarock® Fused Silica Tempering Rollers are manufactured under strict controls to provide optimum ceramic physical properties for stability at ambient and through the highest heat-treating temperatures.

Vesuvius provides the finest surface finish, the tightest dimensional tolerances, and the best hot TIR in the market.

Our ZYAROCK® SMARTLY DRIVEN® Roller provides a "Green" solution by using an environmentally friendly end cap design.
