Abstract

A method for controlling wedge variation in a glass ribbon includes flowing molten glass over converging sides of a forming vessel, drawing a glass ribbon from a root of the forming vessel, measuring the wedge variation over at least a portion of the width of the glass ribbon, adjusting a tilt of the forming vessel and a temperature near a weir of the forming vessel based on the measured wedge variation to decrease the wedge variation over the width of the glass ribbon, and re-measuring the wedge variation over the portion of the width of the glass ribbon.
