UV laser marking machine: an innovative choice for glass sanding process

2025-10-23 Click: 9


In the field of glass processing, sanding technology is commonly used to create decorative effects with a frosted texture or accurate identification patterns, and is widely used in scenes such as door and window glass, handicrafts, instrument panels, etc. Traditional glass sanding often uses sandblasting or chemical corrosion techniques, which not only lead to uneven sand surface and rough edges, but also generate dust pollution or chemical waste liquid, which not only affects processing accuracy but also does not conform to the concept of green production. The emergence of ultraviolet laser marking machines has changed this situation and become a new generation of preferred equipment for glass sanding technology.

The reason why the UV laser marking machine can adapt to the needs of glass sanding lies in its unique "cold processing" characteristics. Unlike the thermal effect of infrared lasers, ultraviolet lasers have a short wavelength (usually 355nm) and can directly affect the molecular structure on the surface of glass. Through photochemical reactions, molecular bonds are broken, resulting in a fine and uniform micro convex concave structure on the surface of the glass, presenting a high-quality frosted effect. This processing method does not require contact with the glass surface, avoiding the risk of glass damage caused by physical friction in traditional processes. At the same time, the processing accuracy can be controlled at the micrometer level, and whether it is complex patterns or fine text markings, they can be clearly presented with smooth edges and no burrs.

In practical applications, the advantages of ultraviolet laser marking machines are further highlighted. On the one hand, its processing efficiency far exceeds traditional techniques. Taking the common 3mm thick glass as an example, it only takes tens of seconds to complete the processing of a 10cm × 10cm full sand surface, and can achieve continuous batch production; On the other hand, its processing is dust-free, waste free, and does not require subsequent cleaning treatment, which not only reduces environmental costs but also ensures the health of operators. In addition, the device also supports personalized customization, and the sanding pattern, density, and depth can be quickly adjusted through computer software to meet the differentiated needs of different industries - such as creating a gradient frosted effect on cosmetic glass bottles, making light transmittance controllable labels on smart home appliance glass panels, or carving scratch resistant scales on laboratory glassware.

For enterprises or practitioners who are interested in introducing UV laser marking machines, two core parameters should be considered when purchasing: first, laser power. For ordinary soda lime glass, a power of 10W-20W can meet most sanding needs. If processing high hardness quartz glass, equipment with a power of 30W or more needs to be selected; The second is the marking speed. It is recommended to choose models that support high-speed scanning galvanometers to ensure efficiency during mass production. Meanwhile, prioritizing equipment equipped with autofocus function can significantly reduce manual debugging time and improve processing stability.

With the popularization of green manufacturing concepts and the increasing demand for glass processing accuracy, ultraviolet laser marking machines are gradually replacing traditional sanding processes and becoming standard equipment in industries such as doors, windows, home appliances, and handicrafts. It has the characteristics of environmental protection, which not only helps enterprises reduce production costs, but also endows products with higher added value, helping enterprises gain an advantage in market competition.
