Abstract

Modern glass application needs to move from traditional tempering with only average controlled fragmentation of security glass to computerized controlled fragmentation by developing engineered stress profiles in glass article. The new treatment methods of soda-lime float glass using irradiation by power Nd:YAG laser which is moved by robot will be discussed. The transparency of glass for laser wavelength is one of the problems of glass treatment by laser. Noncontact stress control by light scattering will be shown. The two main objectives of this work will be discussed: 1. Glass treatment by power laser beam directed to secure glass production; 2. Control methods of residual stress into float glasses treated by laser.
