Product Description

Product Description

Glass beads are manufactured from lead-free, soda lime-type glass, containing no free silica that is made into preformed ball shapes.Glass beads produce a much smoother and brighter finish than angular abrasives. Glass bead blasting produces a clean, bright, satin finish, without dimensional change of the parts.Glass beads can be recycled approximately 30 times. Chemically inert and environmentally friendly,glass beads are an acceptable method of metal cleaning or surface finishing when properly controlled.

APPLICATIONS
Glass bead blasting produces a clean, bright, satin finish,without dimensional change of the parts. Available in a wide range of sizes, glass beads are primarily used in blasting cabinets for honing, polishing, peening, blending, finishing, removing light burrs and cleaning most light foreign matter. For delicate thin-walled parts and thin welds, peening with glass bead abrasive material provides the right balance of stress relief without over-stressing and causing damage. Consider the size of perforations or holes through which the glass beads must pass when screen separating parts from media after use.

Production Process

Raw Material Preparation:
Selection of Glass: Choose appropriate glass materials, often including recycled glass, soda-lime glass, or other specific glass types based on desired properties.
Cleaning and Crushing: Clean the selected glass to remove impurities, then crush it into smaller pieces.

Melting:
Furnace Heating: The crushed glass pieces are melted in a high-temperature furnace, typically at temperatures around 1400-1600 degrees Celsius (2552-2912 degrees Fahrenheit). The glass must be completely liquefied to form uniform beads.

Formation of Beads:
Droplet Formation: The molten glass is formed into droplets. This can be achieved through various methods:
Rotary Method: The molten glass is poured onto a rotating disk or drum, which throws off small droplets that solidify into spherical shapes as they cool.
Sieve Method: The molten glass is passed through a sieve or mesh, creating uniform droplets that fall and solidify into beads.
Cooling: The glass droplets are quickly cooled as they fall, forming solid glass beads. Rapid cooling helps achieve a spherical shape and prevents the formation of irregularities.

Annealing:
Stress Relief: The formed glass beads are passed through an annealing oven where they are slowly cooled. This process relieves internal stresses, enhancing the strength and durability of the beads.

Screening and Classification:
Sorting by Size: The cooled glass beads are sorted using vibrating screens or other classification equipment to ensure uniformity in size. Beads are categorized into different grades based on their diameters.
Surface Treatment (Optional):

Coating or Polishing: Depending on the intended application, the glass beads may undergo surface treatments such as coating to improve properties like reflectivity, durability, or color. Polishing can also be done to achieve a smooth and shiny surface.

Quality Control:
Inspection: Conduct various quality checks to ensure the glass beads meet specified standards. Tests may include checking for size uniformity, roundness, hardness, and any surface defects.

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