Product Description

Product Description

Crafted from lead-free, soda lime-type glass, our premium glass beads boast a unique, preformed spherical shape, ensuring no free silica presence. Experience a smoother and more luminous finish compared to angular abrasives. Our glass bead blasting technique delivers a pristine, radiant satin finish without any dimensional alterations to your parts. These beads are environmentally conscious, chemically inert, and can be recycled approximately 30 times, making them an ideal choice for meticulous metal cleaning and surface finishing when managed correctly.

APPLICATIONS
Harness the power of glass bead blasting to achieve a pristine, bright satin finish without altering the dimensions of your components. With a versatile range of sizes, these glass beads are perfect for use in blasting cabinets for honing, polishing, peening, blending, and finishing. They also excel at removing light burrs and cleansing light foreign materials. For those delicate, thin-walled pieces and slender welds, glass bead peening offers an optimal stress relief balance, preventing over-stressing and avoiding damage. Ensure the bead size complements the perforations or holes for seamless media separation after usage.

Production Process

 

Raw Material Preparation:
Selection of Glass: Carefully select the finest glass materials to ensure the highest quality, which may include recycled glass, soda-lime glass, or other specialized glass types, tailored to achieve specific properties for optimal performance.
Cleaning and Crushing: Rigorously clean the chosen glass to eliminate any impurities, followed by meticulously crushing it into smaller, manageable pieces to prepare for the next stage.

Melting:
Furnace Heating: Subject the crushed glass pieces to intense heat in a specialized high-temperature furnace, reaching approximately 1400-1600 degrees Celsius (2552-2912 degrees Fahrenheit). This ensures complete liquefaction, essential for forming consistent, uniform beads.

Formation of Beads:
Droplet Formation: Transform the molten glass into droplets using sophisticated techniques designed to achieve precision and consistency:
Rotary Method: Employ a rotating disk or drum technique, where molten glass is skillfully distributed, resulting in small droplets that naturally solidify into perfect spherical shapes as they cool.
Sieve Method: Utilize a sieve or mesh to expertly channel the molten glass, producing uniform droplets that descend and solidify into pristine beads.
Cooling: Rapidly cool the glass droplets during descent, ensuring they form solid glass beads. This swift cooling process is crucial to attaining a spherical shape and ensuring the absence of irregularities.

Annealing:
Stress Relief: Pass the meticulously formed glass beads through a precision-controlled annealing oven to gradually cool them, effectively relieving internal stresses and significantly enhancing the beads' strength and durability.

Screening and Classification:
Sorting by Size: Employ vibrating screens or advanced classification equipment to sort the cooled glass beads, ensuring impeccable uniformity in size. The beads are systematically categorized into various grades based on precise diameter measurements.
Surface Treatment (Optional):

Coating or Polishing: Depending on the specific application, glass beads may receive specialized surface treatments such as coatings to enhance reflectivity, durability, or color. Polishing techniques can also be applied to achieve an exceptionally smooth and shiny finish.

Quality Control:
Inspection: Perform comprehensive quality assessments to ensure glass beads adhere to stringent standards. These tests meticulously check for size uniformity, roundness, hardness, and the absence of surface defects, guaranteeing excellence.

Storage: Store the expertly packaged glass beads in a dry, controlled environment, safeguarding their quality and preventing any form of contamination, thereby preserving their pristine condition.
