CNC Machining for Different Cover Glass Types

Our CNC machining solutions can be applied to different types of cover glass according to the required application and material specifications.

Common glass options include:

  • Soda-lime glass
  • Aluminosilicate glass
  • Chemically strengthened glass
  • Tempered glass
  • Ultra-thin glass (UTG)
  • Gorilla Glass
  • Other customized glass substrates

Glass type, thickness, shape, and required features are reviewed before production to determine the appropriate machining process.

For applications requiring higher mechanical performance, CNC machining can also be integrated with subsequent strengthening and finishing processes.
