Thermal Imaging Camera Boosts Real-Time Monitoring at SPG Glass Plant
About the Client – SPG
SPG began operations in 1970 and listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange in June 2002. Today, the company has established itself as a leading global manufacturer of high-quality medical packaging materials.
SPG has been working in medical glass packaging and rubber stoppers for more than 50 years.
Few companies in China can offer a full set of packaging—bottle, stopper, and cap—all from one supplier. SPG is one of them.
Industry experts recognize SPG as a global leader in both production volume and market share.
Application of RB-TemTV-09 in Glass Furnaces – A High-Temperature Imaging Solution from HTEC-video
The manufacturer specially designed this industrial IR camera for glass manufacturing. It supports temperature monitoring up to 1900°C, making it suitable for high-temperature furnace conditions.
It supports thermal imaging for glass furnace applications and can penetrate dust and thermal radiation, maintaining high image quality even in dusty or high-reflection environments.
RB-TemTV-09 features a compact borescope camera design that lets the probe extend directly into the furnace. This provides a wide field of view for continuous, real-time monitoring of the flame, materials, and melting temperature. It also tracks the temperature of the refractory lining.
It helps monitor glass production by providing steady temperature readings and real-time data.
The company installed the RB-TemTV-09 infrared furnace camera to make its glass furnace more stable, efficient, and safe.
The Technical Director of HTEC-video stated:“Compared with ordinary cameras, the RB-TemTV-09 integrates more easily with existing monitoring systems.It collects temperature data quickly, performs accurately even in dusty or high-heat environments, and supports real-time temperature monitoring.When paired with our self-developed IRTEM thermal imaging software, the system allows operators to track temperature trends and plan maintenance more effectively.A built-in video and image alarm automatically alerts operators when abnormal temperatures are detected.”
SPG's Application Results
Since installing the RB-TemTV-09 system, SPG has seen major improvements in furnace stability and energy management.
Stable control of flame status and furnace atmosphere, supporting a more uniform glass melting process
Significant energy optimization, reducing unnecessary fuel consumption
Temperature zone alarms have improved workplace safety and reduced the risk of accidents.
Visualized data assists in maintenance planning and helps make better use of equipment.
SPG’s SEO representative stated:"We value environmental responsibility in every part of our work—from production to daily operations.Partnering with HTEC-video has helped us improve product quality and run our glass manufacturing more efficiently.This collaboration also supports our efforts to save energy, reduce emissions, and move toward a greener future.Through these actions, we’re taking meaningful steps to be a responsible company."
