Embossed glass, also known as patterned glass or rolled glass, is a decorative glass that is mechanically or manually pressed with various patterned patterns on the surface of the glass. The following is a summary of the production process and related applications of embossed glass:
Embossed glass production process
Substrate selection: Choose transparent or colored flat glass as the substrate to ensure its quality meets the requirements of embossing technology.
Heating softening: Heat the selected glass to near the softening point to give it a certain degree of plasticity, in order to press patterns.
Pressing patterns: Using molds or rollers with specific patterns to press the desired pattern onto the surface of glass. This step can be done manually or through mechanized production.
Cooling and shaping: The pressed glass is rapidly cooled to fix the pattern shape and prevent deformation of the pattern.
Polishing and trimming: Polish the edges of embossed glass to remove burrs and ensure smooth and safe edges.
Quality inspection: Conduct quality inspection on embossed glass, including pattern clarity, surface flatness, and edge treatment.
Subsequent processing: As needed, embossed glass may undergo coating, tempering, or other special treatments to meet specific usage requirements.
