How the Process and Glass Type Interact
The table separates verified process or material records from project-specific items that still require drawing review.
| Review area | Assigned technical basis |
|---|---|
| Process purpose | Glass Edge Polishing: source-backed external reference facts retained from V3.2.1; only numeric facts are counted as numeric capability data. |
| Material or functional basis | Spectral transmission, homogeneity, TTV and surface quality directly influence signal, distortion and stray light. |
| Input form | Flat sheet, blank, tube, rod or preform as applicable to the named process |
| High-risk condition | Thin, brittle, strengthened, crystalline or coated parts require grade- and geometry-specific qualification |
| Inspection basis | Dimensional and visual inspection; add microscopy, profilometry or interferometry when the drawing requires it |
Material Grade Must Be Confirmed from the Installed Function
Machine Vision Window Glass does not identify one universal glass composition. The assigned application basis is: Protect the camera and illumination path while preserving measurement contrast, focus and geometric fidelity. The assigned component basis is: Low-iron glass, BOROFLOAT 33, fused silica, optical glass or filter glass chosen for illumination and camera band. The RFQ should therefore name the actual material grade or provide the operating requirements needed for selection.

| Design condition | Define material grade, thickness, geometry, edge distances, datum scheme, surface/edge acceptance and inspection method |
| Product design risk | Ghost images, focus shift, distortion, stray light, contamination and clamp stress |
| Product inspection | Transmission, wedge/autocollimation, transmitted wavefront, surface quality, dimensional inspection and image-artifact test |
| Application failure modes | Ghosting, glare, distortion, focus shift, coating damage, particles and clamp-induced birefringence. |
| Application inspection | Spectral test, wedge/autocollimation, interferometry or distortion target, scratch-dig inspection and image trial. |
