Use of statistical analysis for controlling glass batch preparation

Some methods of statistical analysis used for controlling the quality of glass batch are examined and the factors affecting its temperature and moisture content are determined. The accuracy of the batch wetting process is determined and a cause-and-effect diagram of the instability of the moisture content of a multicomponent mixture of raw materials is constructed. It is proposed that a circular radar chart be used for analyzing the chemical composition of the glass according to the deviations of the content of the main oxides.
