Borosilicate Glass Disc Water Jet Glass Cutting

Geometry, material, edge, surface and inspection review

Water Jet Glass Cutting can be reviewed for Borosilicate Glass Disc, but the accepted route depends on glass grade, supplied form, dimensions, feature geometry, wall section, edge distance, finish and inspection method. The assigned process record notes: Waterjet Glass Cutting: source-backed external reference facts retained from V3.2.1; only numeric facts are counted as numeric capability data. The assigned product record adds: Solid round disc, annulus, center-hole disc, multi-hole disc or stepped disc.

Product Geometry

Borosilicate Glass Disc Features That Affect the Process

Product-form records describe typical geometry and inspection needs; the supplied glass grade and drawing remain controlling inputs.

Product requirementWhat to define
Geometry and available formsSolid round disc, annulus, center-hole disc, multi-hole disc or stepped disc
Dimensions and thickness6.35–304.8 mm published circle-grinding diameter range; larger discs require route review
Holes, cutouts and featuresDimension holes, slots, cutouts, steps, grooves, radii and their edge distances.
Edge and surface zonesSeamed, ground, pencil-ground, polished or chamfered according to mounting and handling risk
InspectionDiameter and thickness measurement, concentricity/runout check, edge microscopy, transmitted-light cosmetic inspection and flatness when functional
Packaging and handlingState cleanliness, protective film, separators, individual packing and shipping requirements.
