Product Description

Product Description

Discover the exceptional qualities of our Glass Beads, expertly crafted from lead-free, soda lime-type glass. These beads boast a unique preformed spherical shape and are completely devoid of free silica, ensuring both safety and superior performance. Unlike angular abrasives, our glass beads deliver a remarkably smoother and brighter finish. Experience the brilliance of glass bead blasting, which effortlessly produces a clean, luminous satin finish without altering the dimensions of your parts. Remarkably, these glass beads can be recycled up to 30 times, making them a cost-effective and sustainable choice. With their chemically inert nature and environmental friendliness, glass beads stand as a premier option for metal cleaning or surface finishing when applied with precision.

APPLICATIONS
Glass bead blasting is the go-to process for achieving a pristine, luminous satin finish, all without altering the dimensional integrity of your parts. Available in an extensive array of sizes, our glass beads excel in a variety of applications. Perfect for use in blasting cabinets, they are ideal for honing, polishing, peening, blending, finishing, and efficiently removing light burrs and foreign matter. For those delicate, thin-walled components and fragile welds, glass bead abrasive material provides the perfect equilibrium of stress relief, avoiding any unwanted over-stressing or damage. When separating parts from media post-use, consider the size of perforations or holes to ensure seamless passage of the glass beads.

Production Process

 

Raw Material Preparation:
Selection of Glass: Carefully select premium glass materials, including recycled glass, soda-lime glass, or other specialized types tailored to achieve specific desired properties.
Cleaning and Crushing: Meticulously clean the selected glass to eliminate any impurities, then expertly crush it into smaller, manageable pieces.

Melting:
Furnace Heating: These crushed glass pieces are subjected to intense heat in a high-temperature furnace, typically reaching between 1400-1600 degrees Celsius (2552-2912 degrees Fahrenheit). This process ensures the glass is completely liquefied for the formation of uniform beads.

Formation of Beads:
Droplet Formation: The molten glass is skillfully formed into droplets using versatile methods:
Rotary Method: In this dynamic method, molten glass is poured onto a rotating disk or drum, which expertly throws off small droplets that cool into perfect spherical shapes.
Sieve Method: Molten glass is systematically passed through a sieve or mesh, producing uniform droplets that fall and cool into solid beads.
Cooling: The droplets of glass are rapidly cooled as they descend, forming robust glass beads. This swift cooling technique ensures a flawless spherical shape and prevents any irregularities.

Annealing:
Stress Relief: The newly formed glass beads are gently passed through an annealing oven where they are gradually cooled. This vital process alleviates internal stresses, significantly enhancing the strength and durability of each bead.

Screening and Classification:
Sorting by Size: Cooled glass beads are meticulously sorted using vibrating screens or advanced classification equipment to guarantee uniform size. Beads are categorized into various grades based on their precise diameters.
Surface Treatment (Optional):

Coating or Polishing: Depending on their intended use, the glass beads may receive surface treatments such as coating to enhance properties like reflectivity, durability, or color. Polishing can also be employed to achieve an impeccably smooth and shiny surface.

Quality Control:
Inspection: Conduct thorough quality checks to ensure the glass beads meet stringent specified standards. Tests include rigorous checks for size uniformity, roundness, hardness, and the absence of surface defects.

Storage: Store the carefully packaged glass beads in a dry, controlled environment to maintain their exceptional quality and prevent any contamination.
