Annealing furnace (EN)
Four de recuit (FR)
The oven used for annealing glassware. Early lehrs were connected to the furnace by flues, but the difficulty of controlling heat and smoke made this arrangement impracticable. Later lehrs were long, brick-lined, separately heated tunnels through which the glass objects were slowly pushed. The glass remained in the lehr for several hours, while it was gradually reheated and then uniformly cooled. Today, lehrs work on a conveyor belt system. (EN)
Le four utilisé pour recuire la verrerie. Les premières lehrs étaient reliées au four par des conduits de fumée, mais la difficulté de contrôler la chaleur et la fumée rendait cet arrangement impraticable. Plus tard, les galeries étaient de longs tunnels revêtus de briques et chauffés séparément à travers lesquels les objets en verre étaient lentement poussés. Le verre est resté dans l'arche pendant plusieurs heures, tandis qu'il était progressivement réchauffé puis uniformément refroidi. Aujourd'hui, les étenderies travaillent sur un système de bande transporteuse. (FR)
