Surface Grinding and Lapping

Surface grinding and lapping are critical processes for preparing glass to exact thicknesses and achieving tight tolerances. Surface grinding removes excess material to flatten and reduce thickness, while lapping fine-grinds the glass for precision.

Applications:

– Glass components requiring tight tolerances for industrial use.
– High-precision surfaces for optical and technical applications.

Polishing

Polishing follows the lapping process, using high-quality cerium oxide on a felt bed to create a smooth, flawless surface finish. This process enhances both the functional and aesthetic qualities of the glass.

Applications:

– Surface-polished glass for architectural and decorative use.
– Components requiring optical clarity and refined finishes.

Coating

We offer advanced thin-film coating to produce effects such as anti-reflective, ITO (Indium Tin Oxide), and dichroic finishes. These coatings enhance performance and visual appeal, making them ideal for both industrial and commercial applications.

Applications:

– Anti-reflective glass for optical instruments and displays.
– ITO coatings for conductive and energy-efficient applications.

Sandblasting and Decorative Finishes

Our CNC-controlled sandblasting machine can handle glass up to 2800mm x 1100mm in size, creating intricate patterns and images. This process is perfect for decorative finishes on glass used in lighting, shelving, and displays.

Applications:

– Diffusers for lighting.
– Patterned glass for household and commercial displays.

Clear Shield Protective Coating

Clear Shield is a self-cleaning, non-stick coating that repels water, dust, and dirt, making glass easier to maintain. It’s particularly effective on sandblasted products to prevent fingerprint marks.

Applications:

– Hard-to-access glass surfaces.
– Sandblasted glass requiring easy maintenance.

Screen Printing

Our silk screening equipment allows for precise decoration and marking of glass. We can print identification labels, standard markings, or custom designs, making it suitable for both functional and decorative purposes.

Applications:

– Custom branding on glass products.
– Identification and safety markings.
