Our Glass Cutting Capabilities

At Swift Glass, we can cut glass into nearly any size or shape from a variety of materials. Using CAD-compatible software to integrate drawings, we can deliver high-precision cuts with 2- and 3-axis CNC machining with fast turnarounds for finished parts and products. Our capabilities allow us to cut glass up to 0.3 mm thick and widths up to 9 in. We can cut coated, taped, and etched glass and accommodate tolerances within +/- 0.01 in. These capabilities fulfill the needs of a wide range of applications.

Swift Glass also delivers several secondary glass fabrication services, including:

Surface lapping or polishing

Surface lapping is a process that delivers the clients’ tolerance, flatness, parallelism, and surface finish requirements by using abrasive materials to polish the workpiece.

Edge grinding

Edge grinding is a procedure that creates a scratch-free edge to the glass for architectural, medical, and aerospace applications.

Chemical strengthening

Chemical strengthening. This chemical treatment process strengthens the glass without warping the surface. It enhances the glass’s durability, strength, and temperature resistance for energy, laboratory, and semiconductor applications.

Thermal tempering

Thermal tempering. This process applies extreme heating and cooling to the glass material to increase its strength. If broken, the glass fractures into small rounded particles less likely to cause harm. It is ideal for lighting, appliance, and vehicle glass.

Swift Glass offers the following precision glass-cutting capabilities:

Sawing

Score & brake

CNC-controlled abrasive material cutting

Ultrasonic machining

Ultrasonic machining. A precision machining technique that removes small sections of glass at a time without heat, chemicals, or electricity. Ideal for components sensitive to stress, ultrasonic machining is commonly used in critical industries like aerospace and semiconductor manufacturing.

Drilling

Drilling. A fabrication method that allows us to drill precise holes in various glass materials. Our diamond-tipped drill bits cut materials up to 0.75 in. thick with a +/- 0.01 in. tolerance.

CNC machining

CNC machining. Computer numerical control (CNC) machining can precision cut and fabricate various materials using a client’s drawing or CAD model. It is suitable for precise aerospace, automotive, and medical components.

Waterjet cutting

Waterjet cutting. A versatile cutting method that can cut various widths and thicknesses of many materials using a high-powered stream of water. This precise cutting technique is ideal for fabricating solar panels, semiconductor wafers, and ornamental components.
