Product Description

Product Description

Glass beads are meticulously crafted from lead-free, soda lime-type glass, ensuring a safe and sustainable choice by containing no free silica. These beads are shaped into perfectly preformed spheres, offering a superior alternative to traditional angular abrasives. With glass bead blasting, achieve a flawlessly smooth and gleaming finish that elevates the appearance of your parts without affecting their dimensions. Remarkably, glass beads can be recycled up to 30 times, making them both chemically inert and environmentally friendly. This makes them an ideal solution for metal cleaning and surface finishing when used under proper controls.

APPLICATIONS
The glass bead blasting process delivers a pristine, bright, satin finish, while preserving the original dimensions of the parts. Available in an extensive range of sizes, these glass beads excel in blasting cabinets for operations such as honing, polishing, peening, blending, finishing, and the removal of light burrs. They are also effective in cleaning most light foreign matter from surfaces. For intricate and thin-walled components or delicate thin welds, peening with glass bead material offers the perfect stress relief, preventing damage. Be mindful of the size of perforations or holes through which the glass beads will pass when separating parts from media after use.

Production Process

 

Raw Material Preparation:
Selection of Glass: Begin with the meticulous selection of high-quality glass materials, including recycled glass, soda-lime glass, or other specialized glass types, depending on the desired characteristics and performance of the final product.
Cleaning and Crushing: Thoroughly cleanse the chosen glass to eliminate any impurities, followed by crushing it into smaller granules, setting the stage for a pristine production process.

Melting:
Furnace Heating: These glass granules are subjected to intense heat within a high-temperature furnace, reaching a range of 1400-1600 degrees Celsius (2552-2912 degrees Fahrenheit) to ensure complete liquefaction, forming uniformly consistent beads.

Formation of Beads:
Droplet Formation: Transform the molten glass into droplets using diverse methodologies:
Rotary Method: Pour the molten glass onto a revolving disk or drum, which projects small droplets outward, solidifying into perfect spherical beads as they cool effortlessly.
Sieve Method: Allow the molten glass to pass through a sieve or mesh, crafting uniform droplets that descend gracefully, solidifying into consistent beads.
Cooling: As these droplets descend, they are rapidly cooled, resulting in solid glass beads. This swift cooling not only achieves optimal spherical shapes but also prevents any irregularities from forming.

Annealing:
Stress Relief: Transport the newly formed glass beads through an annealing oven, where they are gradually cooled to alleviate internal stresses, thereby amplifying their strength and durability.

Screening and Classification:
Sorting by Size: Post-cooling, the glass beads are meticulously sorted using vibrating screens or advanced classification equipment, ensuring precise size uniformity. They are then categorized into various grades according to their diameters.
Surface Treatment (Optional):

Coating or Polishing: Based on the specific application requirements, glass beads may receive surface treatments such as coating to enhance properties like reflectivity, toughness, or coloration. Polishing is also an option to achieve an alluringly smooth and glossy finish.

Quality Control:
Inspection: Undertake a series of rigorous quality checks to confirm that the glass beads adhere to stringent standards. This may include assessments of size consistency, roundness, hardness, and any surface imperfections.

Storage: Carefully store the packaged glass beads in a dry, controlled environment to preserve their superior quality and safeguard against contamination.
