Grinding Wheels for Straight-Line Glass Edging Machines
Quick answer: For a typical straight-line glass edging machine, use diamond cup wheels at D1 and D2 for shaping and fine grinding, resin wheels at R1–R3 to remove grinding marks, and polishing wheels at P1–P4 for a smooth, clear finished edge. Confirm the installed spindle layout before selecting wheel sizes or grits.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I smooth the edges of glass cutting edges?
Use a glass edging machine for repeat production, then select diamond grinding, resin fine-grinding and polishing wheels to suit the machine sequence. For small jobs, manual diamond polishing wheels or sanding tools can also be used.
What is a bevelling machine for glass?
A glass bevelling machine is professional equipment that grinds and polishes a sloped bevel edge on glass for decorative or safety applications. It uses a different wheel profile and sequence from a standard straight-line edging machine.
What can I use to smooth glass edges?
Glass edging machines, diamond grinding wheels, resin wheels, polishing wheels and wet sanding tools are common options. The appropriate choice depends on the edge profile, production volume and required clarity.
What machine is used to make glass?
Glass melting furnaces and forming machines make raw glass. For glass deep processing, cutting equipment, CNC machines and glass edging machines are used to cut, drill, shape and finish the glass.
