Generally speaking, if a product wants to be successful in the market, it is necessary to understand and recognize the performance and parameter characteristics of the product to be recognized by the market. For the weight of the product, people often do not consider it seriously in the design stage. However, there are a number of other industries that have attached importance to the light of the product for a long time. In the field of aviation, people are willing to use more lightweight components, so that the aircraft can fly faster or more fuel-efficient. In the field of national defense, people have studied and developed their own lighter Armor Protective equipment.
In the case of the above two cases, it is important to keep the product at the same time as lightweight. For example, although the weight of the body itself is reduced, it must still be able to protect the human body.
1 competition between different packaging materials
Because the glass bottles as a packaging material for use in the food and beverage industry also need to deal with from polyethylene terephthalate (PEI) bottles and other plastic bottles and aluminum cans and other packaging cardboard packaging materials competition, and in order to reduce the impact of environmental protection in the production and processing process. The use of glass bottles also faces from consumers and the relevant laws and regulations more and more pressure, so the production and manufacture of all of these factors lead to the glass bottles will be moving in the light direction.
In the liquor or wine packaging materials, glass materials accounted for 97% of the market share. The application has emerged within the field of vision in the development of lightweight liquor or Wine packaging glass containers. The average weight of the average bottle of wine in about 500 grams, while the lightest weight of the bottle has been reduced to 300 grams. From the above data, we can see the development potential of glass bottle packaging products used in liquor or Wine bottles in the light.
Beer bottles also have potential for development in the lightweight glass bottle products. A recent example of this: a famous beer brand beer bottle claimed that its use of the weight decreased by 11%, which will save enough for 350 British families by the use of energy, at the same time, also can reduce about 2000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions.
According to the waste and Resources Action Programme (Wasteamd Resourccs Actionn Programme WRAP, the non-profit organization, if the standard weight is calculated as the benchmark, then a glass bottle with a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) production and manufacturing in comparison, production and manufacture of glass bottles in the environment effect of carbon emissions produced by low. However, because of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles in the weight is quite light, therefore, will see its relativity in the transport process of glass bottles to environmental impact of carbon dioxide emissions reduction
2 weight just right
The concept of the so-called "weight just perfect" is simply considering the manufacturing cost of the product, the concept has been the industry''''''''''''''''s production and other manufacturers are using. While reducing the weight of the product to make it lightweight generally can reduce the cost of the product, but often there will be inconsistent with the situation. The key point is to make the product not only can make the weight just perfect product to maintain the same performance, but also to make the manufacturing cost of the products at reasonable cost, of course, the reasonable cost and the lowest cost is not necessarily the same concept.
In this case, lightweight technology or weight just right for the glass manufacturing industry will play what role? For those seeking to make themselves different from other manufacturers and gain more market share, reduce the cost and increase the glass production and the manufacturer''''''''''''''''s profits, lightweight technology and can bring them what value growth?
Most of the glass production growth is driven by the effectiveness and performance of glass products. In most cases, the weight of the glass is purely an accidental factor, that is, once the weight, so it has been the weight. In many cases, this will lead to the glass production and manufacturing industry to focus its attention on the volume, size and thickness, and other factors related to the weight of glass products.
However, when the weight of the glass product is reduced, it is possible to maintain the strength and durability of the glass products If the weight of the material used in the molding of the glass is reduced, the amount of energy consumed and used in the production and manufacture will be reduced At the same time, the glass products in the internal production and manufacturing process, as well as the turnover of the factory will be more light?
If according to the above questions are affirmative answer, then this means that reduce the glass weight of products can bring huge profits for the production of glass products and manufacturers. The reason is that the weight of the glass products after the use of less raw materials, reducing energy consumption, the need to transport the weight is also reduced. The glass weight brought all the direct benefits can ultimately be attributed to reduced production and manufacturers
