MDT: Glass Industry
NotesThe materials included in this MDT were selected in cooperation with Thomas Frey at Califormia Polytechnical State Institute. INSIGHT has traditionally been used for ceramic glazes, but it also works well in glass, as long as it knows about the materials being used. Many of the materials in this MDT are specific to glass, enamel and frit production because they are soluble (such materials cannot be used in ceramic glazes). Generally, the kinds of materials used in glass have close to theoretical chemistries and the materials themselves are consistent (from a chemistry point of view).
If you need to add other materials remember that the MDT download page offers the ability to maintain a custom MDT file (you have to be logged in to do this). On the download page you can choose this MDT as the starter and then add any material (from the thousands available). You can also change the name of any of the materials you add thus you can translate the table into your language. You can add any material (even ones that are already in this starter MDT) for the purpose of changing the name. Then generate the MDT and download it (and put it in the INSIGHT data folder).

The future of ceramic recipe, material and physical testing record keeping is here.
Maintain your recipe database on-line
- Login to a private account or work with others in a group account (e.g. university).
- Nothing to install (access it using your web browser). It is always the latest version.
- Easy to import your existing data.
- As many side-by-side recipes as you want.
- Many ways to search and classify glaze and body recipes.
- Glaze and body recipes are robust, with units-of-measure, unlimited pictures with individual titles and descriptions.
- Add variations to a recipe; each with its own pictures, descriptions and name/code-number extensions.
- Recipes can link to typecodes, projects and firing schedules (all managed in their own areas).
- Standard reports and mix ticket reports with last-minute-totalling; variations report as if they are a complete recipe.
- Video tutorials, help system, contact form on every page, dedicated messaging and support ticket systems.
- It is an industrial-strength database system (unlimited capacity, fast, reliable, scalable).
Imports many file formats
- Glaze recipe formats supported: HyperGlaze, GlazeGhem, GlazeMaster, Matrix, INSIGHT XML recipes (single and multiple), INSIGHT SQLite DB files.
- Assign a batch number to imports, and later search by batch.
- Assign multiple typecodes to imported glaze and body batches (to classify) and search on these later.
- Prepend character sequences to glaze recipe names during import.
- Import the pictures and pair them to their corresponding records automatically.
- One click to automatically export the database to an SQLite DB database file and download it (for use with desktop INSIGHT or just as a backup).
- Export and import individual glaze recipes as text or XML.
Perfect for Education
- Ceramic study programs can now accumulate material, recipe and testing data year-after-year, students can login and together build a valuable ceramic glaze and body knowledge resource.
- Students already have internet connected devices, computers are not even needed in the class.
- The Reference Manager gives you quick access to the Digitalfire Ceramic Reference Database.
