Glassmaker’s fixture BM BOY 05
Glassmaker’s fixture BM BOY 05, “tramping device”
This fixture is designed for handling a traditional glassmaker’s mould in the manual production of blown glass. Its main task is to close and open the mould according to glassmaker’s wishes, and rinse and cool it after the glass article has been blown.
Using this fixture in manual production of blown glass results in substantial reduction of labour. Last but not least, there is a substantial reduction in consumption of water because the BM BOY is equipped with a closed cooling circuit. The main difference of this fixture, compared to other similar products, consists in a profound simplification of the mould mounting. This also results in much shorter time necessary for the mould exchange.
