But when you&rsquo;re messing around with new glass compounds, &ldquo;generic&rdquo; is a problem. Whether you&rsquo;re testing for thermal shock or trying to nail down viscosity, you can&rsquo;t just blast the material with heat and hope for the best. You need to know exactly where the heat is hitting and how hard it&rsquo;s hitting. That&rsquo;s why we don&rsquo;t just talk about how long the tube is; we talk about power density.</p>
