-
Multiple Polariscopes to examine strain in glass and correspondingly strength after anneal or tempering operations
-
Refractometer to measure and identify the refraction index
-
Focalmeter to identify focal point of a lens Spectrophotometer to measure chromaticity (color) in flat glass
-
Spectroradiometer to measure chromaticity (color) and intensity in shaped glass
-
Goniometer to position and measure intensity and color at any position around the product
