Disclosed is an apparatus for manufacturing a glass article obtained by heat-processing a glass tube. The apparatus includes a rotation mechanism that rotates the glass tube, a heating device that heats a portion of the glass tube located toward an end of the glass tube rotated by the rotation mechanism, a gripping mechanism that grips the end of the glass tube heated by the heating device, a movement mechanism that moves the gripping mechanism; and a blower that blows air into the glass tube. The glass tube is melt-cut by moving the gripping mechanism, which is gripping the end of the glass tube, with the movement mechanism in a direction that pulls off the end of the glass tube. The glass tube is melt-cut while the blower is operating to form an opening in a melt-cut end surface of the glass tube.

Methods for producing glass articles from laminated glass tubing include introducing the glass tubing to a converter. The glass tubing includes a core layer under tensile stress, an outer clad layer under, and an inner clad layer. The methods include forming a feature the glass article at a working end of the laminated glass tubing and separating a glass article from the working end of the laminated glass tubing, which may expose the core layer under tensile stress at the working end of the glass tubing. The method further comprises remediating the exposed portion of the core layer by completely enclosing the core layer in a clad layer. Systems for re-cladding the exposed portion of the core layer as well as glass articles made using the systems and methods are also disclosed.
