Bent
Tempered Glass
Bent tempered architectural glass
represents the future trend in
construction and façade
materials, and has seen rapid
growth in worldwide demand. In
response to an increase in architectural
glass applications in sophisticated
facades and the need for larger
curved glass surfaces, Taiwan
Glass has introduced the Rainbowmaker
TSF Combi ™ Bending &
Tempering System, a horizontal
bending and tempering glass processor
designed by Glassrobots, Finland.
Exceptional technology adjusts
the bending radius and control
system parameters to achieve cylindrical
and curved glass shapes. The glass
is heated to the correct temperature
in the precisely controlled furnace,
which eliminates glass waviness
as a result of overheating and
ensures an outstanding glass quality.
