  • Patent number: 10023489
    Abstract: A method for producing, without a mold, a shaped glass article having a predefined geometry is provided. The method includes providing a starting glass, supporting the starting glass, heating a portion of the starting glass so that in the portion a predetermined spatial viscosity distribution of the starting glass is obtained from 109 to 104 dPa·s and so that at points where the starting glass is supported a predetermined spatial viscosity distribution of the starting glass does not fall below 1013 dPa·s, and deforming the heated starting glass by action of an external force until the predefined geometry of the glass article is obtained.

  • Publication number: 20170074762
    Abstract: A method for testing the strength of a sheet-like element having two opposite faces and made of hard brittle material under tensile stress is provided. The method includes passing each of the faces of the element over a roller and thereby bending the element so that each of the faces is subjected to a first tensile stress in a portion in which the opposite face is in contact with a surface of the roller; exerting a second tensile force on the element in the direction of advancement so that both faces are subjected to the second tensile stress of at least 2 MPa so that the first and second tensile stresses add up to define a resultant tensile stress; and monitoring the element and determining whether the element has a defined breaking strength equal to the resultant tensile stress or whether the element breaks under the resultant tensile stress.

  • Patent number: 8864324
    Abstract: A monolithic substrate of glass or glass ceramics and methods for manufacturing are provided, where the substrate has a lightweight structure. The lightweight structure includes recesses that are delimited by webs, such webs forming tetragonal or four-corner-shaped pockets. Due to the lightweight structure, the weight of the substrate can be significantly reduced, and at the same time a high rigidity can be ensured. The substrate can be used as a mirror support or a mirror and can be employed terrestrially and/or extra-terrestrially.

  • Patent number: 8763872
    Abstract: The invention concerns a method for separating plate-shaped workpieces of mechanically brittle and nonmetal materials along any contour desired, comprising the following steps: Scratching of separating lines along the contour up to a depth T by means of a cutting device in at least one side of the plate-shaped workpiece is hereby characterized in that the plate-shaped workpiece is stimulated to bending vibrations at a vibration amplitude along the separating lines, so that the plate-shaped workpiece is completely separated along the separating line.
