Straight Edger

Glass Straight Edger is a specialized machine tool used for precision grinding and polishing the linear edges of flat glass. It is a fundamental piece of equipment in glass fabrication workshops for achieving a smooth, safe, and aesthetically pleasing finish. The machine typically processes the glass's periphery to create a flat, uniform edge, eliminating sharpness and micro-cracks. It employs a series of diamond grinding wheels of varying grits, which operate sequentially from coarse to fine. This multi-stage process ensures the removal of any irregularities and progressively refines the edge to the desired smoothness and clarity. Modern straight edgers often feature programmable logic controllers (PLCs) for automated operation, allowing users to set parameters for different glass thicknesses and edge profiles. Key advantages include high processing efficiency, consistent edge quality, improved operational safety by handling sharp edges, and significant labor savings. It is indispensable for processing glass used in furniture, windows, doors, shelving, and various architectural applications where a precise, safe, and polished straight edge is required.
