ABSTRACT

A method of providing glass from a glass melting furnace (12) to at least one
mold (24, 124, 224, 324, 424, 524, 624, 724), including providing an
uninterrupted glass communication path (26, 226, 326) from an outlet (19, 219)
of the glass melting furnace (12) to the at least one mold (24, 124, 224, 324,
424, 524, 624, 724), and pressurizing the path (26, 226, 326) at a location
downstream of the outlet (19, 219) to move molten glass (30, 230, 330) into
the at least one mold (24, 124, 224, 324, 424, 524, 624, 724). A related
system, apparatus, and molding equipment are also disclosed.
