Product Description

Product Description

Our Clear Glass Beads, crafted from lead-free, soda lime-type glass, boast an innovative design free from any free silica, ensuring safety and quality. These preformed spherical beads create a smoother and more radiant finish compared to traditional angular abrasives. The remarkable process of glass bead blasting results in a pristine, brilliant satin finish, all while preserving the dimensional integrity of the parts. Exceptionally durable, these beads can be recycled up to 30 times, making them both cost-effective and environmentally conscious. Their chemically inert properties make them an ideal choice for precise metal cleaning and surface finishing, provided they are used under proper conditions.

APPLICATIONS
Glass bead blasting is renowned for achieving a flawless, lustrous satin finish without altering the parts' dimensions. Available in a diverse array of sizes, these versatile beads are predominantly used in blasting cabinets to hone, polish, peen, blend, finish, and effortlessly remove light burrs and contaminants from surfaces. When dealing with delicate or thin-walled components and fragile welds, peening with glass bead abrasives delivers the perfect equilibrium of stress relief, minimizing the risk of over-stressing or damage. It's crucial to consider the size of perforations or holes to ensure smooth passage of glass beads when screen separating parts from media post-use, optimizing efficiency and effectiveness.

Production Process

 

Raw Material Preparation:
Selection of Glass: Begin with the meticulous selection of glass materials, which may include recycled glass, soda-lime glass, or other specific types tailored to achieve distinct properties desired for performance excellence.
Cleaning and Crushing: Ensure the chosen glass materials are thoroughly cleaned to eliminate impurities, followed by crushing them into smaller, manageable pieces for further processing.

Melting:
Furnace Heating: Introduce the crushed glass pieces into a high-temperature furnace, typically ranging from 1400-1600 degrees Celsius (2552-2912 degrees Fahrenheit), where the glass is fully liquefied to form consistent and uniform beads.

Formation of Beads:
Droplet Formation: Transform the molten glass into droplets using sophisticated methods to ensure perfect spherical formation:
Rotary Method: The molten glass is expertly poured onto a rotating disk or drum, skillfully throwing off small droplets that naturally solidify into spherical shapes as they cool, creating an ideal form.
Sieve Method: The molten glass passes through a precision sieve or mesh, producing uniform droplets that gracefully descend and solidify into immaculate beads.
Cooling: The glass droplets undergo rapid cooling as they fall, swiftly forming solid glass beads. Quick cooling not only aids in achieving a flawless spherical shape but also prevents irregularities.

Annealing:
Stress Relief: The intricately formed glass beads are guided through an annealing oven where they are gently cooled. This crucial step alleviates internal stresses, significantly boosting the beads' strength and durability.

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

Coating or Polishing: For specific applications, the glass beads may undergo sophisticated surface treatments such as coating to enhance properties like reflectivity, durability, or color. Alternatively, polishing can be applied to achieve a smooth and lustrous finish.

Quality Control:
Inspection: Execute comprehensive quality inspections to verify that the glass beads conform to the highest specified standards. This includes rigorous testing for size uniformity, roundness, hardness, and any potential surface defects.

Storage: The finished, packaged glass beads are stored in a meticulously maintained dry, controlled environment to ensure their continued quality and to prevent any form of contamination.
