It is the ouside deimater (referred to as OD) and wall thickness of glass tubes that are the main quality indexes controlled in the Danner process. A fuzzy control system developed by the authors worked well in this experiment. This paper points out the difficulties of control systems for ODs and possible solutions. Hardware and software are described in principle and the results show that fuzzy control is a good choice for OD control on the Danner line.
