How to Choose the Right CNC Glass Cutting Machine for Your Workshop

When investing in a CNC glass cutting machine, it’s important to select equipment that matches your workshop’s production needs. First, consider the cutting accuracy and speed. CNC machines use computer numerical control to ensure precise cuts for both straight and shaped glass.

Next, evaluate the machine’s software compatibility, automation features, and table size to match the dimensions of your typical glass sheets. A high-quality CNC cutting machine should reduce waste, improve efficiency, and require minimal downtime.

For workshops aiming to scale production, automation features such as auto-loading and break-out functions are essential. You can explore more about our glass machinery solutions to find the right fit.

Glass Machine Maintenance Guide: Keep Your Equipment in Top Shape

A well-maintained glass machine is the foundation of efficient glass processing. Regular maintenance not only extends the lifespan of your equipment but also ensures consistent quality output. Start by performing daily cleaning to remove glass dust and debris, which can affect precision and safety.

Next, schedule periodic checks of mechanical components, such as cutting heads, polishing wheels, and conveyor systems. Proper lubrication of moving parts will reduce wear and tear. It’s also essential to update control software for CNC glass machines to maintain accuracy.

If you operate equipment such as a glass polishing machine or a CNC glass cutting machine, follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for inspections and part replacements.

At LIJIANG Glass, we not only provide reliable glass machinery but also long-term service support to keep your workshop running smoothly with minimal downtime.

Glass Tempering Furnace vs Other Glass Processing Machines – Which Do You Need?

Choosing between a glass tempering furnace and other processing machines depends on your production goals. A glass tempering furnace is designed to heat glass to a high temperature and then cool it rapidly, increasing strength and safety. This makes tempered glass ideal for architectural, automotive, and safety applications.

On the other hand, machines like CNC glass cutting machines or glass polishing machines are essential for shaping and finishing glass before tempering.

For businesses aiming to enter large-scale safety glass production, investing in a high-quality glass tempering furnace is the right choice.

At LIJIANG Glass, we provide complete glass machinery solutions to help manufacturers choose the right equipment for their specific needs.

Insulating glass using silicone sealant is composed of chemical raw materials such as silicone rubber, silicone oil, and calcium carbonate. Taking winter in the northern hemisphere as an example, when the temperature drops in the winter in the northern hemisphere, silicone rubber, and silicone oil become thicker, less fluid, and more viscous. This thickening and sticky situation is normal and does not affect product quality.


Silicone one-component sealant is moisture-cured. The sealant absorbs moisture in the air after application and penetrates and solidifies from the outside inward. The curing time of the sealant is related to the ambient temperature and humidity, and the thickness of the glue. The lower the temperature and humidity, the slower the curing.


To better demonstrate the product effect, it is recommended to choose a clean environment with a relative temperature of 5℃~40℃ and a relative humidity of 40%~80%. Taking the northern hemisphere as an example, when the winter temperature is below 5°C, LIJIANG Glass recommends no more construction sealants.


In the case of low temperature and low humidity in winter, the curing speed of the sealant is slower than normal. When the sealant encounters changes in joint displacement before curing, the surface of the sealant is prone to bulges or cracks.


Solution:

1. It is recommended to construct in a cloudy environment in winter, because the temperature difference between day and night is small on cloudy days, the deformation of the glue joint is small, and bulging is not easy to occur;


2. Use appropriate shading measures to prevent the glass panel from being directly exposed to sunlight, reduce the surface temperature of the glass panel, and reduce joint changes caused by temperature differences;


3. Adopt the secondary sealing method, first apply sealant to 1/2 of the depth of the seam, wait until the surface is dry, and then apply secondary sealing to fill the seam.
