摘要： A glass manufacturing apparatus comprises a forming device configured to produce a glass ribbon and a control device configured to independently operate a first pull roll apparatus and a second pull roll apparatus such that the first pull roll apparatus rotates with a substantially constant torque the second pull roll apparatus rotates with a substantially constant angular velocity. The control device is further configured to adjust the substantially constant torque of the first pull roll apparatus based on an operating condition of at least one of the first pull roll apparatus and the second pull roll apparatus. In further examples, methods of manufacturing a glass ribbon are provided.

摘要： Methods and apparatuses for managing pulling forces applied to a glass ribbon in a draw apparatus are disclosed. The method includes applying a front-side and a rear-side drive torque to a glass. The method further includes calculating automatically with the at least one electronic controller a front-side and a rear-side average pulling force applied to the glass ribbon and corresponding to a first time period of at least one rotation of the front-side or rear-side stub roller, respectively. The front-side average pulling force and the rear-side average pulling force are compared to establish a pulling force differential between the front-side average pulling force and the rear-side average pulling force. One or more of the front-side drive torque or the rear-side drive torque are modified to decrease the pulling force differential between the front-side average pulling force and the rear-side average pulling force.
