Water jet edges are typically rougher and less precise than diamond machined, and are limited to flat profiles. Diamond machining is used to smooth the edge surface, increase accuracy, or add features such as bevels and rounded profiles.

Edge treatments are applied to glass to minimize chipping, for safe handling and for aesthetic purposes. Selecting the appropriate edge treatment for the end-use of the glass may be critical to the functionality, strength, and overall performance of the glass. When glass is cut it leaves a raw edge, so for safe handling and protection from chipping a safety or seamed edge is done. This treatment is not for aesthetics, and is generally used when the edge of the glass is not visible. When aesthetics and functionality come into play, Abrisa Technologies can provide nearly any edge or corner profile using a combination of cutting and machining. Grinding and polishing stations are set up to provide machine ground or polished edges, pencil or flat, dubbed corners, beveled edges, and stepped or routed surfaces, on glass as thin as 0.28mm and as thick as 2”.

Diamond machined edges are the gold standard with which to compare. Highly precise, intricate shapes are possible with the highest quality surface finish, whether ground or polished. We routinely hold tolerances down to ±0.1mm. Difficult features such as stepped surfaces, precisely angled bevels, slots and grooves lend themselves best to CNC machining. Abrisa Technologies’ CNC machining centers can handle glass thicknesses from 0.5mm to 50mm and sizes ranging from 0.5” x 0.5” up to 120” x 60”.

As custom glass fabrication experts, Abrisa Technologies has a broad spectrum of machining services that can be offered to fit nearly every application-specific customer requirement. Our CNC processing and other glass fabrication equipment allows us to manufacture glass parts ranging from simple to the most complex. Notching, slotting, grooving, edge grinding, stepped surfaces, hole drilling, chamfers, circle grinding, surface lapping/polishing, edge polishing and sandblasting are just some of the processes performed in-house.

The goal is to provide the best, most cost effective solution to the customer. First we look at the product specifications, part size, glass thickness, type of edge treatment and quality needed, accuracy and shape of the cut, tolerances needed, volume, and post processing steps. Then we consider how the finished glass will be used, and may make recommendations for design improvements or cost reduction.

Through various machining centers, we can grind circle parts as small as 0.200” in diameter and as large as 10” in diameter. We can edge grind parts with dimensions as small as 0.125” and as large as 120”. In addition to our CNC machining centers, our semi-manual machining centers can be set up to handle nearly any task.

For flat glass, we can provide surface grinding and polishing, or “lapping and buffing”, to various thicknesses and finishes. We do not typically polish for flatness specifications but can polish to thickness and cosmetics. We can hold thickness tolerances down to ±0.025mm and can handle up to 14” diameters.

Water jet cutting is used for more complex jobs than possible with traditional scribe cutting methods, when diamond machining may be unnecessary or cost-prohibitive. The fully capable and programmable CNC based system combines highly pressurized water and an abrasive substance allowing for extremely complex shapes to be cut on flat glass materials with a dimensional precision of <0.25mm to 1.5mm, depending on the thickness of the glass. Water jet cutting provides an ideal and cost-effective solution for cutting thick glass, which often is challenging using other methods. Abrisa Technologies’ water jet machining centers can handle glass thicknesses from 2mm to 50mm and sizes ranging from 1” x 1” up to 90” x 46”.
