QualityUncompromising Quality Control

Quality Control for Curved Glass Railings

we recognize that even the most advanced manufacturing equipment is only as reliable as the quality controls governing it. Curved glass demands millimeter-perfect precision, and defects like warping, micro-cracks, or inconsistent curvature can compromise structural integrity. Here’s how our 5-step quality assurance system eliminates risks at every stage:

  1. Raw Material Inspection
    Only use Grade A ultra-clear glass (iron content ≤0.015%) to prevent greenish tints.

  2. Pre-Production Calibration
    3D-scanned bending molds must match CAD designs within ±0.1mm tolerance.

  3. In-Process Monitoring
    Infrared thermal imaging detects heat distribution anomalies during tempering.

  4. Post-Production Testing
    Laser scanners measure radius accuracy (±0.3mm) across 50+ data points.
