WET AND DRY GRINDING SCORES AT GLOBAL GLASS INDUSTRIES |
|
Sunday, 04 October 2009 |
|
Some specialist glass coatings are easily damaged by water and manual handling, so the preference is for dry arrissing/seaming of edges when preparing the glass for tempering.
On the other hand, a finer finish is achieved, particularly on thicker glass, when wet grinding with diamond belts.
The brand new factory of Global Glass in Rak Al Khaimah, UAE has therefore decided to order BOTH.

LASER MARKING brings state of the art benefits to glass processors. Apart from marking of company logos, production dates for warranty purposes, and the usual fixed text like EN Standards codes, laser marking offers a range of additional benefits for glass factories. The marks are smudge-free; they do not rely on the operator's steady hand. There are no consumables such as inks or templates.
