FLOAT BATH SYSTEM FOR MANUFACTURING FLOAT GLASS
Disclosed is a float bath system for manufacturing a float glass, comprising a block assembly having a plurality of blocks connected to each other and configured to store a molten metal therein; a steel casing surrounding the block assembly; an air blower capable of supplying air to the steel casing; and a coating layer formed on a contact surface of the steel casing with the block assembly to prevent the molten metal from reacting with the steel casing when the molten metal flows in a gap between the blocks of the block assembly.
1 . A float bath system for manufacturing a float glass, comprising:
a block assembly having a plurality of blocks connected to each other and configured to store a molten metal therein;
a steel casing surrounding the block assembly;
an air blower capable of supplying air to the steel casing; and
