ABSTRACT:
A process for the production of homogeneous ream-free bodies made of quartz glass or made of a glass having a high content of silicic acid, in which an essentially bar-shaped initial body is twisted about its longitudinal axis in a shaping step to form a twisted body radially homogenized in layers having axial layering. To make it possible to produce homogeneous large-volume bodies, in at least one further shaping step the twisted body is then softened in a heatable mold under a force acting in the axial direction to deform it in a direction transverse to its axial direction into the mold and form a glass bar, the longitudinal axis of which extends essentially perpendicular to the layering. The glass bar is then twisted about its longitudinal axis.
