Abstract
An edge-press molding element is part of a glass-bending tooling that includes a contoured-ring, gasket form factor. The edge-press molding element operates by self-weight bending a glass pane under a thermal load. The glass pane bends under molding conditions where a temperature differential of as low as 30° C. up to 100° C. is achieved between an edge of the glass pane and the center.
