FINISHING
Gillinder Glass recognizes that after glass is molded and annealed, there is often a requirement for additional operations to perfect the customers’ products. Some glass manufacturers outsource these functions. However, Gillinder Glass has chosen to create its own, fully equipped, in-house, Finishing Department which allows us to carefully control quality at all stages of production and reduces transportation costs.
​
Our customers benefit from better quality and lower prices. Some of the feature equipment and functions of the department include:
-
DCM Rotary Table and Lapmaster Grinders to smooth and flatten
-
Sand Blasters to create diffusion, masking or slip resistance
-
Horizontal, Circular, and Robotic Cutting Saws to create halves and other unique products
-
Up Shock and Down Shock Equipment to test resistance to thermal shock
-
Finishing Ovens to fine tune color, harden coatings, remove temper or re-anneal products
-
Glass Painting Booth to mask areas, soften light hotpots (particularly from LEDs), or mask areas
