Glass & Ceramics Manufacturing
Diamond and superabrasive tooling solutions for precision cutting, grinding, edge finishing and polishing of glass, ceramics and other brittle materials.
INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
HANS provides diamond and superabrasive tools for glass and ceramic manufacturing, supporting cutting, grinding, shaping, edge finishing and polishing processes. Our tooling solutions are suitable for architectural and technical glass, ceramics, porcelain, fused glass and other hard, brittle materials used in fabrication and industrial production.
KEY CHALLENGES
Glass and ceramic manufacturing requires controlled material removal while minimizing edge chipping, cracking, scratches and excessive heat. Differences in material hardness, thickness and geometry require appropriate abrasive grit, tool configuration and processing parameters to maintain consistent quality and productivity.
RECOMMENDED SOLUTIONS
Recommended solutions include diamond grinding wheels and discs for shaping and edge preparation, flexible diamond sanding belts and discs for contour finishing, resin diamond abrasives for progressive smoothing and polishing, and precision diamond burs for detailed processing. Tool sizes, grit specifications and configurations can be customized for specific production requirements.
KEY BENEFITS
Efficient and controlled material removal, reduced chipping and surface damage, consistent edge and surface quality, reliable abrasive life and flexible progression from coarse grinding to fine polishing. Standard and custom tooling solutions are available for specialized glass and ceramic manufacturing processes.
