Learn about the first step we take in maintaining tempered glass quality standards.

Video transcript:

My name is Terry Hessom. I am a project manager with a HHH Tempering Resources. Been with the company now for six years and been associated with my colleagues for 20 years.

One of the most common questions asked by our customers really concerns anomalies in glass, and that quality or the defects that they see and how we address them or how we would address them.

Typically, we go through a qualification process there. You know, the first of which being determining recipe settings. You know, did something change? Asking the operator and/or the customer, did something change within the recipe or within the furnace? But, typically that’s the first place we look to see if we can help them make adjustments there to solve those quality issues.

Note: Terry Hessom has since been promoted to VP of Operations. Read more about his new role.

Spontaneous breakage in tempered glass due to Nickel Sulfide (NiS) inclusions remains a critical topic in the industry—this paper examines the risks, benefits, and effectiveness of heat soaking as a preventive measure across different markets.
In this experimental investigation, the surface and edge stress were measured on standardized format thermally toughened safety glass, with different edge processing and glass thicknesses from three different suppliers.
Can we state if the Heat Soak Test (HST) was done according to EN14179-1:2005 or not?
This study examines prestressed glass specimens that are 0.5mm, 1.1mm, and 2.1mm thick in comparison to glass of the same thicknesses that have not been enhanced by the novel stiffening method.
Modern tempering technologies offer impressive energy efficiencies for glass processors. But, have you ever come across energy-saving claims that seem too good to be true?
The paper compares fitting functions of different polynomial degrees to determine and assess the edge stress.
