Abstract:
An apparatus for identifying defects within the volume of a transparent sheet, such as a glass sheet, is provided. The apparatus includes an illumination device that directs incident light onto at least a portion of a surface of the sheet so as to illuminate the sheet, and an image detector onto which the light backscattered from the sheet is directed to image the sheet. The apparatus generates at least two interference images under different capturing conditions in order to perform identification of defects by evaluating the at least two interference images.
Abstract:
A glass roll, as well as a device and a method for manufacturing the glass roll are provided. The glass roll includes a glass ribbon having a thickness, a length in an x-direction, and a width in a y-direction. The glass ribbon has at least one defect site at a position, as well as at least one error mark disposed on the glass ribbon, and is wound up into a glass roll.
