Glass Grinding & Cutting Services

CNC Surface Grinding

Reducing bulk glass surfaces to a surface finish of 50 microns. Grinding tolerance to ± 0.05.

CNC Surface Grinding

Reducing bulk glass surfaces to a surface finish of 50 microns. Grinding tolerance to ± 0.05.

CNC (Diamond) Sawing

Diamond sawing squares and rectangles from sheet glasses and optical materials to a cutting depth of 100mm. Cutting tolerance to ± 0.20mm.

Annular ID Sawing

Precision ID slicing of substrates, wafers and components up to 100mm diameter. Cutting tolerance to ± 0.05mm

Diffusing & Sand Blasting

Faces and surfaces can be diffused by either fine alumina or grinding grit. We offer a range of sand blasting grades ranging from from 10 microns to 100 microns.

Milling

CNC milling to cut outs, strips and recesses around the edges of squares and rectangles. Grinding tolerance to ± 0.05.

Cylindrical Grinding

OD grinding of rods and tubes or stack edging filters. Diameters 5mm to 250mm. Grinding tolerance to ± 0.01mm.

Waterjet Cutting

Waterjet cutting is ideal for achieving shapes and complex designs, glass rings, and cutting technical sheets and glasses. It’s is also used to cut AR coated sheets and quartz sheet leaving a ground edge with no tooling costs. Cutting tolerance to ± 0.10mm.

Glass Scribing

The slicing scribe & break process uses CNC multi- or single-blade cutting wheels and is ideal for ultra-thin glass and coated glass sheets. Additional working such as bevelling can be applied after cutting. Cutting tolerance to ± 0.1mm.

Bevelling & Chamfering

Sharp edges and corners can be ground using our bevelling and chamfering process to a uniform size and angle. This is ideal to accommodate housings, for protection of assembly operators and protection of components.

Glass Drilling

Diamond drilling and trepanning holes, cylinders and discs. Holes are drilled to a minimum of 2mm diameter, or for smaller sizes laser or ultrasonic drilling is recommended. Drilling tolerance to ± 0.05.
