An apparatus and method for bending glass substrate(s) are provided. Microwave radiation is used to heat glass substrate(s) for bending. As a result, a coating supported by the substrate(s) is not heated as much during the bending process compared to if only conventional IR radiation was used. Thus, more extreme degrees of glass bending may be achieved, and/or the likelihood of coating damage reduced.
L'invention concerne un appareil et un procédé de bombage de substrat(s) en verre. Le rayonnement micro-ondes est utilisé pour chauffer au moins un substrat en verre en vue de son bombage. La couche qui recouvre le substrat est ainsi moins chauffée au cours de l'opération de bombage que si elle est soumise uniquement au rayonnement infrarouge classique. L'invention permet par conséquent d'atteindre des niveaux extrêmes de bombage, et/ou de réduire le risque de détérioration de la couche de revêtement.
