METHODS OF MANUFACTURING GLASS RIBBON

A method of manufacturing glass ribbon can comprise feeding molten material through a minimum width of a first gap defined between a first roller and a second roller of a first pair of rollers. A first pool of molten material can be formed upstream from the minimum width of the first gap. A ribbon o...

Zusammenfassung:A method of manufacturing glass ribbon can comprise feeding molten material through a minimum width of a first gap defined between a first roller and a second roller of a first pair of rollers. A first pool of molten material can be formed upstream from the minimum width of the first gap. A ribbon of molten material can exit the first gap. The methods can further include passing the ribbon of molten material through a minimum width of a second gap defined between a first roller and a second roller of a second pair of rollers. The minimum width of the first gap can be greater than the minimum width of the second gap. A second pool of molten material can be formed upstream from the minimum width of the second gap.
