Glass Edge Profiles

In a previous post i touched on different edges available through glass processing using modern machinery.

Here i will go into a little further detail of the common profiles used.

Flat and Arriss

This is the most commonly used edge profile for processed glass. This edge can be produced using a Straight Line Edger or a CNC work-center.

Beveling

This Type of edge is commonly found on Mirrors or Door panes. It is available in any width typically up to 50mm wide. This edge can be produced using a Straight Line Beveller or a 5-Axis CNC Work Center

Pencil Edge / Bull Nose / Triple Pencil Edge, Etc

There are many other profiles available on glass but are rarely used. These profiles originate from the Stone industry and aren't used mainly because they do not provide the same reflective quality as the Beveled Edge or Flat and Arriss.
