Display Glass
Display Glass describes a function rather than one universal composition. State the actual glass grade or operating temperature, pressure, chemical, optical or sealing duty in the RFQ.
Appliance Glass Window
Round, square, rectangular, wedged, stepped, flanged or drilled window
Drawing-defined feasibility
Final feasibility is reviewed against grade, supplied stock, dimensions, thickness, holes, cutouts, edges, surfaces, quantity and inspection criteria.
How the Glass Type and Product Form Fit Together
The assigned technical records separate published material or application guidance from the dimensions and acceptance criteria that remain drawing-specific.
| Review area | Assigned technical basis |
|---|---|
| Material definition | Display Glass describes a function rather than one universal composition. State the actual glass grade or operating temperature, pressure, chemical, optical or sealing duty in the RFQ. |
| Product-form definition | Round, square, rectangular, wedged, stepped, flanged or drilled window |
| Typical materials | BOROFLOAT 33, fused silica, optical glass, sapphire, low-iron or filter glass according to band and environment |
| Application duty | Provide a durable, optically clear and accurately registered cover over display and touch functions. |
| Inspection basis | CMM or optical comparator, autocollimator or interferometer, transmitted-wavefront test, scratch-dig inspection and spectral test |
The Actual Glass Grade Must Be Named in the RFQ

Glass Windows
Round, square, rectangular, wedged, stepped, flanged or drilled window
Display Cover Glass
Provide a durable, optically clear and accurately registered cover over display and touch functions.
Geometry, Surface and Inspection Requirements
Product-family data is a planning reference. The drawing must identify the exact shape, critical zones and measurable acceptance limits.
| Product requirement | What to define |
|---|---|
| Geometry and available forms | Round, square, rectangular, wedged, stepped, flanged or drilled window |
| Dimensions and thickness | Small sensor windows through CNC rectangles up to 600 × 1000 mm supplier reference limits |
| Holes, cutouts and features | Dimension holes, slots, cutouts, steps, grooves, radii and their edge distances. |
| Edge and surface zones | Fine ground, seamed, polished or chamfered; pressure and optical windows need controlled edge damage |
| Inspection | CMM or optical comparator, autocollimator or interferometer, transmitted-wavefront test, scratch-dig inspection and spectral test |
| Packaging and handling | State cleanliness, protective film, separators, individual packing and shipping requirements. |
| Manufacturing route item | Review requirement |
|---|---|
| Supplied stock | State sheet, plate, tube, rod, disc, wafer, blank or preform condition. |
| Compatible route | Profile cutting, edge grinding, drilling, lapping or optical polishing, coating, cleaning and protected packaging |
| High-risk geometry | Edge fracture, touch sensitivity loss, print misregistration, glare, scratches and delamination. |
| Drawing release | For Display Glass Appliance Glass Window, define datums, critical features, edge and surface zones, quantity, inspection and packaging before releasing the route. |
Inspection Focus for Custom Display Glass Appliance Glass Window Processing
Acceptance should connect every critical drawing characteristic to an instrument, fixture condition and stated limit.
| Review item | Project-specific focus |
|---|---|
| Product design risk | Wedge-induced beam deviation, coating damage, edge-load fracture, seal stress and incorrect spectral material |
| Product inspection | CMM or optical comparator, autocollimator or interferometer, transmitted-wavefront test, scratch-dig inspection and spectral test |
| Application failure modes | Edge fracture, touch sensitivity loss, print misregistration, glare, scratches and delamination. |
| Application inspection | Cosmetic inspection, dimensions/flatness, transmission/haze, print registration, touch and impact testing. |
| Acceptance method | Scratch-Dig Inspection: Compare calibrated result with the drawing, purchase order or approved test specification |
| Feature-to-edge damage | For Custom Display Glass Appliance Glass Window Processing, inspect chips, microcracks, breakouts and edge damage around processed features and adjacent walls. |
