The continually changing requirements of high capacity glass container manufacture have led to significant changes to the detailed engineering of PRECON working ends and AMC forehearths since the concepts were first introduced in 1986. In this paper the author describes how major innovations made in the application of the radiation cooling system have resulted in the concentration of the cooling process in the working end and if necessary the first forehearth zone.
