Product Description

Product Description

Our exquisite Glass Beads, masterfully crafted from lead-free, soda lime-type glass, promise an innovative and safe solution to your abrasive needs. These beads boast a silica-free composition, molded into perfectly preformed spherical shapes. Unlike conventional angular abrasives, our glass beads ensure a finish that is both smoother and more brilliant. Through our advanced glass bead blasting technique, achieve a pristine, radiant satin finish that maintains the original dimensions of your parts. Remarkably resilient, our glass beads can be recycled up to 30 times, making them a cost-effective choice. Being chemically inert and eco-friendly, they represent a superior method for metal cleaning and surface finishing when used with precision control.

APPLICATIONS
Experience the unparalleled results of glass bead blasting, which delivers a clean, bright, and satin-like sheen without altering the dimensions of your components. Available in an array of sizes, our glass beads are the ideal choice for a myriad of applications within blasting cabinets. From honing, polishing, and peening to blending, finishing, and the meticulous task of light burr removal, our glass beads excel. They effectively clean most light foreign matter with finesse. For delicate, thin-walled parts and fragile welds, our glass bead abrasive material offers the perfect equilibrium of stress relief, avoiding the risk of overstressing and potential damage. When screen separating components from media post-use, ensure the size of perforations or holes accommodates the passage of these glass beads for seamless processing.

Production Process

 

Raw Material Preparation:
Selection of Glass: Begin with the meticulous selection of superior glass materials. Opt for recycled glass, soda-lime glass, or other specialized types tailored to meet the desired attributes, ensuring high-quality end products.
Cleaning and Crushing: Thoroughly cleanse the chosen glass to eliminate all impurities, then expertly crush it into smaller, more manageable pieces.

Melting:
Furnace Heating: The fragmented glass pieces are subjected to intense heat in a state-of-the-art furnace, reaching soaring temperatures of approximately 1400-1600 degrees Celsius (2552-2912 degrees Fahrenheit). The glass is expertly liquefied to ensure the formation of consistently uniform beads.

Formation of Beads:
Droplet Formation: Transform the molten glass into droplets using innovative techniques designed to achieve precision:
Rotary Method: Pour the molten glass onto a dynamic rotating disk or drum, expertly casting off droplets that naturally solidify into perfectly spherical shapes as they cool.
Sieve Method: Channel the molten glass through a precision sieve or mesh, creating uniformly sized droplets that gracefully descend and solidify into flawless beads.
Cooling: The glass droplets are swiftly cooled as they descend, rapidly forming solid, spherical glass beads. This quick cooling process is crucial for maintaining ideal shapes and preventing any irregularities.

Annealing:
Stress Relief: The newly formed glass beads are gently guided through an advanced annealing oven, where they undergo a gradual cooling process. This relieves internal stresses, significantly enhancing the beads' strength and durability.

Screening and Classification:
Sorting by Size: The cooled glass beads are meticulously sorted using sophisticated vibrating screens or classification equipment to guarantee uniform size. Beads are systematically categorized into various grades, each defined by specific diameters.
Surface Treatment (Optional):

Coating or Polishing: Tailored to the intended application, glass beads may undergo specialized surface treatments like coating to enhance properties such as reflectivity, durability, or color. Polishing is also available to achieve an exceptionally smooth and shiny finish.

Quality Control:
Inspection: Conduct thorough quality assessments to verify that the glass beads meet rigorous standards. This includes testing for size uniformity, roundness, hardness, and detection of any surface imperfections.

Storage: Preserve the packaged glass beads in a dry, controlled environment to safeguard their pristine quality and prevent any form of contamination.
