Product Description

Product Description

Our Clear Glass Beads Abrasive is meticulously crafted from high-quality, lead-free, soda lime-type glass, ensuring no free silica and expertly formed into uniform, spherical ball shapes. These glass beads are renowned for providing a significantly smoother and more lustrous finish compared to traditional angular abrasives. Experience the brilliance of glass bead blasting, which imparts a pristine, bright, satin-like finish, all while maintaining the original dimensions of the parts. Exceptionally durable, these glass beads can be recycled up to 30 times, offering an environmentally friendly and chemically inert solution for metal cleaning and surface finishing, when managed with precision.

APPLICATIONS
Glass bead blasting is your go-to solution for achieving a spotless, bright, satin finish, effectively preserving the dimensional integrity of parts. Available in a versatile array of sizes, our glass beads are ideal for use in blasting cabinets, offering superior performance in honing, polishing, peening, blending, finishing, removing light burrs, and cleaning most light foreign contaminants. For tasks involving delicate thin-walled parts and fragile thin welds, glass bead peening delivers just the right amount of stress relief, minimizing the risk of over-stressing and potential damage. It's crucial to consider the size of perforations or holes for seamless separation of parts from the media post-use when utilizing screen separation techniques.

Production Process

 

Raw Material Preparation:
Selection of Glass: Carefully select the ideal glass materials to optimize quality. This often includes choices like recycled glass, soda-lime glass, or other specific glass types, each selected for their unique properties and suitability for the desired end product.
Cleaning and Crushing: Meticulously clean the chosen glass to eliminate any impurities, ensuring a perfect start. Subsequently, crush the glass into smaller, manageable pieces, readying it for the next phase of production.

Melting:
Furnace Heating: The finely crushed glass pieces enter a high-temperature furnace, reaching typical temperatures of 1400-1600 degrees Celsius (2552-2912 degrees Fahrenheit). Here, the glass is thoroughly liquefied, setting the stage for the formation of uniform, high-quality beads.

Formation of Beads:
Droplet Formation: Transform the molten glass into droplets using a variety of advanced methods, each designed to ensure precise bead creation:
Rotary Method: The molten glass flows onto a rotating disk or drum, which skillfully projects small droplets. These droplets solidify into perfectly spherical shapes as they slowly cool.
Sieve Method: The molten glass is skillfully passed through a sieve or mesh, generating uniform droplets. These droplets then gracefully fall, solidifying into flawless beads.
Cooling: As the glass droplets descend, they are rapidly cooled to form solid glass beads. This swift cooling process is crucial, helping achieve a flawless spherical shape while preventing any irregularities.

Annealing:
Stress Relief: To enhance strength and durability, the newly formed glass beads journey through an annealing oven. Here, they are gradually cooled, a process that effectively relieves internal stresses, fortifying the beads for longevity and performance.

Screening and Classification:
Sorting by Size: Post-cooling, the beads are meticulously sorted using vibrating screens or other sophisticated classification equipment. This ensures a remarkable level of uniformity in size, allowing classification into various grades based on diameter for diverse applications.
Surface Treatment (Optional):

Coating or Polishing: Depending on the application, glass beads may undergo specialized surface treatments. Techniques such as coating enhance attributes like reflectivity, durability, or color. Alternatively, precision polishing can be employed to achieve an impeccably smooth and lustrous surface finish.

Quality Control:
Inspection: Implement rigorous quality control protocols to ensure the glass beads meet the highest standards. This includes a series of tests to verify size uniformity, roundness, hardness, and the absence of surface defects, ensuring premium product delivery.

Storage: Store the meticulously packaged glass beads in a dry, controlled environment. This safeguarding step is essential to maintain their pristine quality and prevent any potential contamination, ensuring readiness for professional-grade applications.
