Abstract: A method of separating a glass ribbon includes applying a first gripper and a second gripper to the glass ribbon on an upstream side of a separation line to restrict movement of the glass ribbon and to control glass ribbon shape. The first gripper and the second gripper are positioned adjacent opposite edges of the glass ribbon. The method also includes applying laser energy at the separation line on the glass ribbon and initiating a defect at or near the separation line to cause the glass ribbon to separate at the separation line.

Abstract: Methods of separating a glass web include the step (I) of exposing a path on the glass web to at least one laser beam to produce thermal stress along the path without damaging the glass web. The methods further include the step (II) of creating a defect on the path while the path is under thermal stress produced during step (I), whereupon the glass web spontaneously separates along the path in response to the defect.
