P-327 SPEED ADAPTIVE CONVEYOR DRIVE FOR A GLASS MANUFACTURING SYSTEM ABSTRACT A conveyor drive for a glass manufacturing system transports a sheet of glass through a tempering station on a roller bed. The conveyor drive includes a pair of pulleys mounted at opposed ends of the tempering station. A continuous drive loop is trained over the pair of pulleys and engages the roller bed so that rotational motion of the pulleys is imparted to the rol- ler bed. One pulley is driven by a motor to transport the glass through the station. The other pulley drives an electrical generator connected to a dissipative load. The generator and load provide an adaptive counter- torque to the other pulley in direct relation to its rotational speed. The counter-torque stabilizes the con- veyor drive to prevent slip-stick friction from dis- rupting the transport of the glass sheet.
