Industrial Glass Processing Machinery for Surface Finishing & Production
SKY Glass provides glass processing machinery for manufacturers that need to improve production efficiency, processing consistency and operational control.
Controlled Abrasive Blasting for Glass Surface Treatment
SKY Glass Grit Blasting Machines are designed for industrial glass surface frosting and texture finishing.The system uses controlled abrasive blasting to modify the glass surface and create a uniform matte appearance and controlled light diffusion. It supports both automated production and manual localized processing.
Typical Processing Effects:
- Full-Surface Frosting:For privacy glass, partitions, shower panels and other applications requiring a consistent matte appearance.
- Decorative Pattern Blasting:Masked areas can be blasted selectively to create patterns, borders, logos and other decorative effects.
- Variable Surface Intensity:Blasting conditions can be adjusted to achieve different surface effects according to the required product appearance.
- Localized Touch-Up:The manual blasting gun can be used for smaller areas, corrections or customized decorative work.
Automated Production When Volume Matters. Manual Control When Flexibility Matters
Automatic Blasting
Equipped with 3 automatic guns for continuous large-area processing. Suited for repetitive orders, full-surface frosting, large panels, and high-volume production.
sManual Blasting
A separate heavy-duty manual gun provides flexibility for localized blasting, small areas, touch-up work, custom decorative effects, and special orders.

Different abrasives produce different surface effects and processing characteristics. Our system is applicable to alumina, glass beads and silicon carbide.
Media Selection Should Consider:
- Desired Surface Texture:Finer or coarser grits create different appearances.
- Processing Speed:Abrasive type and grit affect how quickly the effect is achieved.
- Glass Application:Architectural privacy glass may need different characteristics than decorative or functional glass.
- Abrasive Consumption:For continuous production, media consumption becomes part of operating cost.

Process Notes |
|
Uniform satin frost |
Brown / white fused alumina |
120–220 mesh |
Low pressure, fast travel; full-sheet consistency is the challenge |
|
Signature etch, visible grain |
Aluminum oxide |
80–120 mesh |
Medium pressure; grain must stay uniform between shifts |
|
Deep carving / anti-slip |
Silicon carbide |
24–80 mesh |
Multiple passes; must be carved before tempering |

Aluminum oxide, fine |
150–220 mesh |
Masking film + plotter; traverse repeatability is critical |
Abrasive blasting generates fine particulate matter. For an industrial glass processor, the dust-control system affects workshop cleanliness, operator working conditions, machine maintenance, visibility, filter maintenance, and environmental compliance.
Our Grit Blasting Machines are equipped with an automatic pulse-jet bag-filter dust collection system.
Integrated Dust Management: Blasting Chamber → Dust Extraction → Bag Filter → Pulse-Jet Cleaning – maintaining continuous filtration without frequent manual cleaning.
Grit blasting subjects equipment to continuous mechanical movement and abrasive exposure. Our machine uses a heavy-duty steel chassis—the largest listed configuration weighing approx. 1,200 kg—for structural stability during operation.
Engineering Priorities:
- Rigid Structure:Maintains stable machine movement.
- Protected Processing Area:Blasting chamber contains abrasive material and dust.
- Wear-Resistant Internal Areas:Surfaces exposed to abrasives are protected against long-term wear.
- Industrial Control System:PLC and touchscreen operation provide centralized control of production parameters.
PLC Control for Repeatable Production
Our system uses an industrial PLC with touchscreen control—operators can adjust processing speed and blasting paths through the digital interface.
Production Benefits:
Faster Setup
Reduce repeated manual adjustment during product changeovers.
Less Operator Variation
Machine-controlled movement reduces differences caused by manual blasting technique.
Repeatable Orders
Once a setup is established, it can be reproduced for subsequent batches.
Easier Training
Operators work through defined machine controls, not just individual experience.
Maintenance & Wear Parts
Typical Wear Items: Blasting nozzles, sand/abrasive pipes, filters, sealing components, and other abrasive-contact parts. Boron carbide nozzles and sand pipes are identified as primary wear items, with replacement support available.
Customization for Different Factories
Processing Width:Select a working width suitable for your maximum glass dimensions.
Machine Layout:Adapt the equipment arrangement to available factory space.
Processing Direction:Right-to-left or left-to-right workflow for line integration.
Conveyor Configuration:Infeed and outfeed arrangements planned around upstream/downstream equipment.
Electrical Configuration:Configured for the destination market's electrical requirements.
Automation Integration:Consider the machine as part of an automated glass-processing workflow.
