Abstract: A glass heating furnace is disclosed. The glass heating furnace allows glass to be heated up more uniformly, which reduces effectively the formation of the thermal stress marks on the glass. The glass heating furnace uses primarily a roller power module to control the rollers to displace reciprocatively, allowing the glass to be heated up uniformly and reducing significantly the formation of the thermal stress marks in the heating process of the glass, through the reciprocative displacement of the rollers. A glass is made by the glass heating furnace. The glass displaces in a chamber of the glass heating furnace along an S-shaped moving path or an 8-shaped moving path.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing glass on a metal melt and can be used for improving the quality of float glass. The invention makes it possible to increase the quality of the lower surface of the float glass by removing micro-defects. To do this, a glass strip is raised above draw-in shafts of a slag chamber and kept in a raised position during transport in the slag chamber area by reducing the atmospheric pressure above the glass strip in relation to the pressure acting on the glass strip from below.

Abstract: A glass sheet is placed on a mold and heated to a first temperature. The glass sheet is then formed into a glass article having a three-dimensional shape using the mold. An isothermal heat transfer device comprising at least one heat pipe is provided in thermal contact with the mold. With the glass article on the mold and the isothermal heat transfer device in thermal contact with the mold, the glass article, mold, and isothermal heat transfer device are transported along a thermally-graded channel to cool the glass article to a second temperature. During the transporting, the isothermal heat transfer device transfers heat from a relatively hot region of the mold to a relatively cold region of the mold.

Abstract: A method for producing ceramizable green glass components provided, as well as apparatus for performing such method and ceramizable green glass components producible by such method. The method is a redrawing process in which a preform is heated, in a deformation zone, to a temperature that enables redrawing of the glass. The deformation zone is particularly small, which permits redrawing of the ceramizable green glass bodies while avoiding ceramization during the redrawing. The method provides plate-like or sheet-like green glass components that have a particularly smooth surface.

Abstract: A system and method for bending one or more thin glass structures. The system includes heating, bending and cooling zones, each having a plurality of modules aligned and connected to each other to define elongated tunnels, wherein adjacent heating modules are separated from each other by a furnace door. A conveyance mechanism carries the one or more thin glass structures through the modules via the elongated tunnels. Each of the modules include one or more heating elements, each heating element being independently controllable by element or set of elements as a function of a temperature profile for the one or more thin glass structures. The temperature profile can be determined as a function of temperature on the one or more thin glass structures.
