Abstract:
A glass article manufacturing system (10) includes a crucible (38) that defines a barrel (46) and a nozzle (54). The barrel (46) accepts a glass feedstock (62). A heater 66 is in thermal communication with the nozzle (54). The heater 66 heats the feedstock (62) within the nozzle (54). An actuator (22) is positioned proximate the barrel (46) and extrudes the feedstock (62) through the nozzle (54) as extruded feedstock.
