Abstract: A glass tube, such as a glass tube for the production of containers for storage of pharmaceutical compositions, facilitates production of pharmaceutical containers with high quality. The glass tube has a relative cross-sectional area deviation defined as QF max - QF min 1.5 m . QF max - QF min 1.5 m is less than k*x+t. QFmax is the highest cross-sectional area and QFmin is the lowest cross-sectional area of at least two cross-sections of the glass tube, the cross-sections being spaced apart from each other along a length of the glass tube, and k is 0.0023 m−1, t is less than 0.15 mm2/m and x is QF max + QF min 2 .

Abstract: At least one glass tube has an azimuthal wall thickness deviation WTD of not more than 6.0%, the azimuthal wall thickness deviation being determined based on a lowest wall thickness value and a highest wall thickness value measured within a cross-section of the at least one glass tube, the azimuthal wall thickness deviation WTD being calculated according to the following formula: W T D = 100 - ( lowest wall thickness value highest wall thickness value * 100 ) % .

Abstract: A process for producing a glass tube includes: applying a glass melt onto an outer surface of a rotating conical mandrel by guiding the glass melt from a feed tank through an outlet, the glass melt forming a strand of molten glass that flows from the outlet onto the outer surface; forming a hollow glass melt body on the conical mandrel; drawing the hollow glass melt body from the conical mandrel in a predetermined direction toward a front end for forming a glass tube, the outer surface having a wetting zone where the strand of molten glass first contacts the conical mandrel, the wetting zone being at a vertical distance from the outlet and a vertical movement of the conical mandrel is monitored; reducing vertical movement of the conical mandrel; cooling the hollow glass melt body; and cutting the cooled glass melt body into glass tubes.

Abstract: A process for producing glass tubes includes: applying a glass melt onto an outer surface of a rotating conical mandrel by guiding the glass melt from a feed tank through an outlet; forming a hollow glass melt body on the conical mandrel; drawing the hollow glass melt body from the conical mandrel in a predetermined direction toward a front end for forming a glass tube, the outer surface having a wetting zone where the glass strand first contacts the conical mandrel, a spatial variation of the wetting zone of the applied glass melt being monitored by measuring a horizontal movement of an edge of the glass strand; reducing the spatial variation by adjusting one or more process parameters; cooling the hollow glass melt body; and cutting the cooled glass melt body into glass tubes.
