Abstract

See full text

An apparatus and a method for cutting float glass is disclosed. A burner and water spray are arranged to cause thermal stress cracking along a cutting line extending along a continuous glass ribbon, parallel with the edge of the ribbon. The thermal stress cracking is initiated without the use of mechanical force. Preferably, the burner is used to initiate the thermal stress crack, by increasing the power supplied to the glass.
