  • Patent number: 11964895
    Abstract: A method of forming a glass sheet comprises: (a) forming a ribbon of glass from molten glass with a pair of forming rollers; (b) reducing horizontal temperature variability of the ribbon of glass to be 10° C. or less across 80 percent of an entire width of the ribbon of glass before the ribbon of glass cools to a glass transition temperature; (c) controlling a cooling rate of the ribbon of glass while the ribbon of glass moves vertically downward within a setting zone such that the ribbon of glass has a first average cooling rate before the ribbon of glass cools to the glass transition temperature and a second average cooling rate after the ribbon of glass cools to the glass transition temperature, the first average cooling rate being less than the second average cooling rate; and (d) separating a glass sheet from the ribbon of glass.

  • Patent number: 11827553
    Abstract: A method of controlling compaction including obtaining a plurality of sets of process conditions for a plurality of glass ribbons, measuring a compaction value for a glass sheet cut from each glass ribbon of the plurality of glass ribbons, correlating the compaction to the process conditions. The method further includes selecting a predetermined cooling curve including a plurality of cooling rates, modifying the cooling curve by varying cooling rates of the plurality of cooling rates, calculating a predicted compaction value for a glass sheet cut from a glass ribbon drawn using the modified cooling curve, and repeating the modification and predicting until compaction is minimized.

  • Publication number: 20230212052
    Abstract: A method of forming a glass sheet comprises: (a) forming a ribbon of glass from molten glass with a pair of forming rollers; (b) reducing horizontal temperature variability of the ribbon of glass to be 10° C. or less across 80 percent of an entire width of the ribbon of glass before the ribbon of glass cools to a glass transition temperature; (c) controlling a cooling rate of the ribbon of glass while the ribbon of glass moves vertically downward within a setting zone such that the ribbon of glass has a first average cooling rate before the ribbon of glass cools to the glass transition temperature and a second average cooling rate after the ribbon of glass cools to the glass transition temperature, the first average cooling rate being less than the second average cooling rate; and (d) separating a glass sheet from the ribbon of glass.

  • Publication number: 20200231487
    Abstract: A glass sheet includes a first major surface, a second major surface opposite to the first major surface, and an edge surface extending between the first major surface and the second major surface. The glass sheet includes a thickness between 0.3 mm and 2 mm. The glass sheet includes a dome or bowl shape.
