Machining of edges
There is the possibility that small micro-breaks on the edges of cut formats may occur duringthe cutting process. Thanks to the process of grinding edges, the risk of breaking as a result of increased inner tensions under insolation (thermal stresses) or under the influence of mechanical forces (forced compressions, physical blows and others) is lowered.
Due to this characteristic, extra processing of edges is commonly used for toughened glass. Grinding of edges is also done in order to increase the safety of using the glass, e.g. in walls and ‘frameless doors’, where the danger of injury exists. To practice proper aesthetics, there is the extra possibility of polishing the edges after grinding. The use of glass as table tops, in furniture or glass shelvings, and in decora-tions of interiors, requires high aesthetics of finishing.
