ABSTRACT:
A glass ribbon moves downstream under a pair of scoring wheels to score the bulb edges of the ribbon and thereafter past a cross scorer to laterally score the ribbon. As the ribbon moves further downstream the scores at the bulb edge move under (1) a plurality of hot airstreams which propagate the fissure depth of the score and (2) under a cold airstream to concentrate the stress field about the score line to prevent premature severing of the bulb edges due to mechanical vibrations generated during subsequent opening of the lateral score.
