A method for consolidating a porous glass preform is provided in which a preform is placed in a stationary elongated chamber and selected portions of the chamber, distributed along the chamber's length, are sequentially heated above the preform's sintering temperature. In certain preferred embodiments, the chamber is surrounded by an elongated susceptor and the heating is performed by moving an induction heating coil along a path parallel to the longitudinal axes of the susceptor and the chamber.
