Pressure Testing

Pressure testing ensures the strength and durability of circular sight glasses and well glasses under hydraulic pressure. This test helps validate that the glass can withstand the demands of its application, ensuring safety and reliability in industrial or scientific settings.

Applications:

– Sight glasses for industrial pipelines.
– Well glasses used in high-pressure environments.

Drop Testing

Drop testing measures the impact resistance of glass by subjecting it to predetermined energy values using the free-fall method. This ensures that the glass can endure accidental impacts or falls during handling or operation.

Applications:

– Safety glass for high-traffic areas.
– Glass used in transportation or construction projects.

Bending Testing

Bending tests use hydraulic pressure to expose glass to controlled bending forces, validating its strength and flexibility. This test is essential for applications where glass must endure mechanical stress without cracking or breaking.

Applications:

– Load-bearing glass structures.
– Architectural features like curved glass panels.

Explosion Testing

Explosion testing simulates the effects of explosions on glass to assess strength, safety, and breakage patterns. Using customer-supplied equipment, we ensure accurate validation under real-world conditions.

Applications:

– Glass used in hazardous industrial environments.
– Safety-critical applications in research or manufacturing facilities.

Thermal Shock Testing

Thermal shock testing measures the glass’s ability to withstand rapid temperature changes, a critical factor for applications involving extreme heat or cold. This process ensures that the glass can endure sudden ∆ shock without cracking or failing.

Applications:

– High-temperature industrial processes.
– Glass used in ovens, furnaces, or laboratory equipment.
