Energy efficiency:

As the successor to the renowned NG40, NG flamingo shares the same basic parameters – such as the crucible capacity (12 l, approximately 30 kg of glass) and the use of waste heat for heating the annealer, now recycling up to 70% of energy.

Modularity:

Its modular design allows for unprecedented ease of maintenance, even for less experienced users, and offers the potential for future upgrades. Instead of purchasing a new furnace, you can simply replace the electronic module, giving it long-term value. Transitioning from propane to natural gas is also relatively simple, without the need to replace the entire burner system.

Usability:

For glassmakers, NG flamingo can serve as a second furnace, for example, to melt colored glass or opal. It can run continuously – glass can be worked during the day and melted overnight for the next day.

Flexibility:

The key advantage of NG flamingo is its flexibility for hosting events, such as one-day workshops or public glassblowing demonstrations, thanks to its ability to heat up to operating temperature in approximately 3-4 hours, depending on the type of glass used.

Safety:

NG flamingo is also safe, making it ideal for school environments, and the 24/7 online monitoring is an added benefit. The studio complies with all EU CE safety standards for both gas and electricity, ensuring top-level security in any setting.

Easy setup:

Operating NG flamingo requires only a standard 230V socket and approximately 25 kg of propane for 24 hours, with consumption depending on the type of glass and the frequency of furnace door openings.

Top quality:

NG flamingo is manufactured at our parent glassworks, Niesenglass Switzerland GmbH. We use only parts from reliable European sources and manufacturers. Our goal is to deliver products of the highest quality.
