ABSTRACT:
Spacer elements affixed to the face of a flat vacuum platen induce a temporary reverse bow in a heat softened glass sheet held on the platen. The bowing is in the opposite direction from that of the final curvature, so that when the glass sheet is subsequently dropped onto a shaping mold the resulting sag in at least one direction is reduced.
