At Control Metrix, we understand how critical glass industry temperature measurement equipment is to maintain product quality and optimise energy-intensive production processes. We are a leading supplier of glass industry temperature measurement systems and our products are used by some of the largest glass manufacturing companies in the world.
We offer a comprehensive range of glass manufacturing temperature measurement systems. Our team of experts has the industry knowledge and expertise to help you implement the in-process measurement system to suit your particular requirements. With our systems, you can be confident your products will meet the highest quality standards.
High-Quality Products Every Time
The glass industry is a particularly demanding environment. Whether producing flat glass, container glass, technical glass or solar glass, it is essential to know the precise temperature at critical control points in the production process.
We specialise in tailoring in-process measurement systems to meet your needs, enhancing process control, improving efficiency, and enabling quick corrective actions for higher-quality products and greater customer confidence.
Our non-contact IR measuring systems allow precise temperature measurements to be taken in critical places including glass melting furnaces, working tanks and feeders or gobs allowing precise control during the glass manufacturing process, eliminating contamination of molten glass and increasing throughput rates.
Leading Measurement Systems for Glass Manufacturing
By working with industry-leading supplier, Advanced Energy, we offer premium quality products from brands including LumaSense, Impac and Mikron, providing you with the most cost-effective measurement solutions. With a proven track record of working with companies similar to yours, we can help you identify the most suitable product for your particular needs. Once the equipment is on-site, we can also provide commissioning and training, as well as ongoing support packages.
For the glass industry, we offer the following measuring systems:
The FurnaceSpection™ is a radiometrically calibrated thermal imaging system that provides real-time continuous temperature measurement inside high-temperature furnaces in glass production processes.
Mikron Thermal Imaging Cameras are high-performance IR thermal imaging systems for accurate temperature measurement in a number of dedicated industrial applications including in-furnace temperature mapping.
Thyristor Power Controllers provide efficient, reliable and precise control of electrical heating, which is absolutely essential in many industrial thermal processes including industrial furnaces, IR drying, glass manufacturing, semiconductors, heat treatment, melting, drying and forming.
Impac® pyrometers provide exact, non-contact infrared temperature measurement across a wide range of materials and temperatures. Designed for industrial reliability, they offer precise monitoring for metal processing, glass manufacturing, and other high-temperature production environments.

"I would not hesitate to contact Control Metrix in the future"
“When rebuilding one of our clamshell furnaces we opted for four Impac ISR 6 pyrometers for precise temperature measurement. I am very impressed with the quality of every component from the cooling jackets to the sensors themselves, which seem exceptionally well made. I would not hesitate to contact Control Metrix in the future for any other applications that I may need help/equipment for.”

"Immediately provided us with very impressive results."
“When we needed to measure the temperature of an ion source within a high vacuum, we chose to use an Impac pyrometer. The advice given by the Technical Sales Manager meant that the equipment was easily integrated into our system and immediately provided us with very impressive results.”
We believe our customers should deal with an expert from the point of enquiry to project completion. Therefore, we will appoint you a product specialist, so you have continuity and a single point of contact. They will be your guide, help identify the best solution for your particular application and be with you through to successful implementation.
