Method for controlling the mechanical strength of a container, in particular made of glass, by a control apparatus which provides for actuating the control on a control zone extending along an entire circumferential perimeter of the outer surface of the container in which it provides for forwarding the container according to a forwarding direction, simultaneously rotating the container about the axis of symmetry thereof orthogonal to the forwarding direction, then controlling the container during the rotation, exerting a control pressure onto the control zone, the control being divided into several steps, in which in each step it is provided to exert the control pressure on a respective portion of the control zone and which provides that each single container is subjected in sequence to each step during the forwarding thereof and the rotation thereof.
A method for controlling the mechanical strength of a glass container (200), by means of a control apparatus (100), which provides for actuating the control on a control zone (201a) extending along an entire circumferential perimeter (202) of the outer surface (201) of the container (200), the method comprising:
An apparatus (100) for controlling mechanical strength of a glass container (200), configured to operate on a control zone (201a) extending along an entire circumferential perimeter (202) of an outer surface (201) of the container (200), the apparatus (100) comprising:
