Surface finish for glass
Surface finish for glass
(OP)
I have a question- my company is producing with measurement glass that has to be grinded very precisely. Now I've measured that we need additional treatment to get from 15 um (0,015 mm) to 10um (0,01 mm) without doing any damage to the surface. We are talking about mass production - this isnt a one time job.
What kind of surface treatment do you recommend. The only thing I came up was etching, but frankly I just dont like the idea.
Thanks

Fluid jet likewise seems to be overkill, but there are examples of large subtrates, but not quite the level you're talking about:

But for our buyer that just isnt enough - this glass serves as reading glass ( sort of a pathway ) for a measuring device which means that a reading unit is driving on it and that reading unit requires +/- 10 um roughness.
Before you ask - I dont know why they dont change the reading device etc.

Again, standard window glass is way smoother than that, why not use that?
