FAQ’s
We have answered here some of our most frequently asked questions.
All requirements however are bespoke so please call 0151 486 6760 or email mail@rbaker.co.uk if you have an enquiry.
Where are we based?
We are a proud British company who is based in Liverpool, UK. From this location we supply worldwide to the glass market.
What does a linear motor do?
Within the float glass manufacturing process, linear motors are utilised in the tin baths. This gives some control of the temperature profile across the ribbon width. By controlling the tin flow this can be achieved and is normally controlled by using linear motors.
Do we offer free advice?
If you require advice please free feel to contact us on +44 151 486 6760 or email mail@rbaker.co.uk
Is there a minimum order?
No. Through experience and innovation we are able to offer custom made solutions for one off projects through to larger projects.
