Tech/Engineering - Manufacturing / Glass making
Chinese term or phrase: 压改浮
Hi everybody,

The subject is glass production. I'm translating a table describing the operations carried out on Customers' furnaaces. One of the interventions is 压改浮 and it has been executed on a 350 tons/day coal combustion sheet glass furnace. I know that 浮 stands for float glass, but I cannot understand what the word means. I found many occurrencies online but no English translation. Any hints?
Thanks in advance!
