The Annealing of Glass from the Point of View of Factory Operation

JSGT 1928 V12 T204-T212

 In 1926, in a paper read to the Society of Glass Technology under the title "Economics of the Annealing Process," a number of factors bearing on the practical details of annealing were discussed. For the past eighteen months we have been digesting these data and making further practical experiments with the three-fold purpose of (1) cheapening the annealing process; (2) simplifying it, and perhaps most important of all-(3) making it more fool-proof and, so far as possible, independent of the load on the lehr and of external conditions, such as change of weather, winds and so on.
