Product Description

Product Description

Our Durable Glass Beads Abrasive is crafted from high-quality, lead-free soda lime-type glass, ensuring a safe and efficient performance with no free silica content. These glass beads are meticulously formed into pre-determined ball shapes, offering a smoother and more lustrous finish compared to traditional angular abrasives. The glass bead blasting process delivers a pristine, bright, satin finish while maintaining the original dimensions of parts. Impressively recyclable up to 30 times, these beads are chemically inert and environmentally conscious, making them an ideal choice for precise metal cleaning or surface finishing, provided they are applied with proper control.

APPLICATIONS
Glass bead blasting is renowned for delivering an immaculate, brilliant satin finish without altering the dimensional integrity of the components. Offered in an extensive range of sizes, glass beads are predominantly utilized in blasting cabinets for tasks such as honing, polishing, peening, blending, finishing, and the removal of light burrs as well as cleaning various light foreign substances. When working with delicate, thin-walled parts and slender welds, peening with glass bead abrasive material is the optimal technique, providing the necessary stress relief without inducing undue stress or damage. It is crucial to consider the size of perforations or holes that the glass beads will traverse during the screen separation of parts from the media post-application.

Production Process

 

Raw Material Preparation:
Selection of Glass: Carefully select the finest glass materials to ensure superior performance. This can include recycled glass, soda-lime glass, or other specialized types, chosen meticulously based on the specific properties desired for the ultimate product excellence.
Cleaning and Crushing: Thoroughly cleanse the selected glass to eliminate any impurities, ensuring its pristine condition. Following cleaning, the glass is expertly crushed into smaller, manageable pieces.

Melting:
Furnace Heating: The cleaned and crushed glass pieces are subjected to intense heat within a high-temperature furnace, typically reaching between 1400-1600 degrees Celsius (2552-2912 degrees Fahrenheit). This extreme heat is essential to fully liquefy the glass, ensuring the formation of perfectly uniform beads.

Formation of Beads:
Droplet Formation: Transform the molten glass into droplets with precision and expertise. This transformation can be achieved through various innovative methods:
Rotary Method: In this method, the molten glass is skillfully poured onto a rotating disk or drum. As the disk rotates, it expertly throws off small droplets that elegantly solidify into perfectly spherical shapes as they cool.
Sieve Method: Alternatively, the molten glass is passed through a specialized sieve or mesh, creating uniform droplets that gracefully fall and solidify into high-quality beads.
Cooling: The droplets of glass undergo rapid cooling as they descend, forming solid glass beads. This swift cooling process is crucial to achieving a spherical shape and preventing any irregularities, ensuring the highest quality beads.

Annealing:
Stress Relief: The newly formed glass beads are gently passed through an annealing oven, where they are slowly cooled. This process is vital for relieving internal stresses, thereby enhancing the overall strength and durability of the beads.

Screening and Classification:
Sorting by Size: The cooled glass beads are expertly sorted using vibrating screens or advanced classification equipment. This step ensures uniformity in size and categorizes the beads into different grades based on their precise diameters.
Surface Treatment (Optional):

Coating or Polishing: For applications demanding enhanced properties, the glass beads may undergo sophisticated surface treatments, such as coating to improve reflectivity, durability, or color. Additionally, polishing can be employed to achieve a flawless, smooth, and shiny surface, elevating the beads' aesthetic and functional appeal.

Quality Control:
Inspection: Conduct rigorous quality checks to ensure the glass beads meet the highest specified standards. These tests may encompass size uniformity, roundness, hardness, and the absence of any surface defects, guaranteeing exceptional quality and performance.

Storage: Store the packaged glass beads in a meticulously controlled, dry environment to maintain their unparalleled quality and prevent any potential contamination, ensuring their readiness for every demanding application.
