Product Description

Product Description

Crafted meticulously from lead-free, soda lime-type glass, our High-Performance Glass Beads Abrasive is engineered to perfection with preformed ball shapes, ensuring no free silica content. This exceptional product is designed to deliver a significantly smoother and brighter finish compared to traditional angular abrasives. The innovative glass bead blasting technique not only achieves a pristine, bright, satin finish but also guarantees no dimensional alteration of the components being treated. Remarkably durable, these beads can be recycled up to 30 times, making them a cost-effective choice. Their chemical inertness and environmentally friendly nature make them an ideal choice for metal cleaning or surface finishing when executed with precision.

APPLICATIONS
Our High-Performance Glass Beads Abrasive is adept at creating a clean, bright, satin finish without altering the dimensions of the parts involved. Offered in a myriad of sizes, these glass beads are predominantly utilized in blasting cabinets for an array of tasks including honing, polishing, peening, blending, finishing, and the removal of light burrs and foreign contaminants. Particularly beneficial for delicate operations, such as with thin-walled components and slender welds, glass bead peening administers an optimal level of stress relief that avoids over-stressing and potential damage. When using these beads, it is important to consider the size of perforations or holes that the beads must traverse during the screen separation process post-use.

Production Process

 

Raw Material Preparation:
Selection of Glass: Carefully select the most suitable glass materials, which may include a variety of options such as recycled glass, soda-lime glass, or other specific types that align with the desired properties for exceptional performance.
Cleaning and Crushing: Meticulously clean the chosen glass to eliminate any impurities, then expertly crush it into smaller, refined pieces.

Melting:
Furnace Heating: The expertly crushed glass pieces are subjected to intense heat in a high-temperature furnace, typically ranging from 1400-1600 degrees Celsius (2552-2912 degrees Fahrenheit). This process ensures the glass is thoroughly liquefied, setting the stage for the formation of uniform beads.

Formation of Beads:
Droplet Formation: Transform the molten glass into droplets through innovative methods that assure precision and quality:
Rotary Method: Channel the molten glass onto a rotating disk or drum, which skillfully disperses small droplets that solidify into perfectly spherical shapes as they naturally cool.
Sieve Method: Direct the molten glass through a sieve or mesh, crafting uniform droplets that gracefully fall and solidify into pristine beads.
Cooling: Swiftly cool the glass droplets as they descend, solidifying into robust glass beads. This rapid cooling is crucial for achieving an ideal spherical shape and preventing any formation of irregularities.

Annealing:
Stress Relief: Pass the formed glass beads through a specialized annealing oven where they are gradually cooled. This essential process alleviates internal stresses, significantly enhancing the strength and durability of the beads.

Screening and Classification:
Sorting by Size: Employ vibrating screens or other advanced classification equipment to meticulously sort the cooled glass beads, ensuring a consistent size and categorizing them into distinct grades based on their diameters.
Surface Treatment (Optional):

Coating or Polishing: Tailor the glass beads through optional surface treatments, such as coating, to significantly enhance properties like reflectivity, durability, or color. Polishing can also be performed to achieve an impeccably smooth and lustrous surface.

Quality Control:
Inspection: Conduct a series of rigorous quality checks to ensure the glass beads adhere to specified standards. This includes tests for size uniformity, roundness, hardness, and the absence of any surface defects.

Storage: Store the packaged glass beads in a dry, meticulously controlled environment to preserve their exceptional quality and prevent any form of contamination.
