Method and apparatus for minimizing devitrification on edge directors with induction heating

A fusion draw method includes flowing molten glass over an edge director intersecting with at least one of a pair of downwardly inclined forming surface portions and maintaining a minimum temperature of at least a portion of a surface of the edge director contacting the molten glass above a predeter...
