Embodiment Construction
[0050] figure 1 An exemplary embodiment of a device 1 for performing processing according to the invention is shown.
[0051] figure 1 The apparatus of the exemplary embodiment shown in , generally designated by reference numeral 1 , is designed for shaping a glass preform to obtain a glass tube 3 . Specifically, the equipment is used to produce glass syringe bodies using figure 1 The elements of the device shown in 1 consist of a glass tube forming the cone of the syringe body.
[0052] The production of cones from tubular glass by means of the apparatus 1 is based on the local heating of the region of the glass tube 3 (here, its end 30) above the softening point and the shaping of at least one part of the heated end using at least one forming tool , wherein the means for local heating comprises a laser 5 emitting light having a wavelength for which the glass of the glass tube 3 is at most partially transparent, so that the light is at least partially absorbed in the glass...
