The breaking strength of glass depends strongly on internal mechanical stresses. Inhomogeneous glass composition leads to so-called chord stresses, which cannot be detected by conventional polariscopes or polarimeters. Manual measurements with a polarizing microscope are time-consuming and require specially trained and experienced operators.
The StrainScope Cord Glassware Strain Analyzer automatically measures stresses in glass ring segments of containers and displays the distribution of compressive and tensile stresses in real time directly in the required measuring cell. This allows you to carry out quality inspections before production with virtually no training. You can respond quickly to production problems and avoid production losses and expensive complaints.
