For years, waterjet cutting machines have been widely used for glass cutting. However, with the rise of advanced laser technology, many businesses are now turning to laser glass cutting machines as a more cost-effective and reliable solution.
Unlock new possibilities in glass cutting with our advanced Glass Laser Cutting Machine. Offering unmatched precision and versatility, it effortlessly handles intricate designs and delivers flawless, clean edges. Perfect for a wide range of applications, including architecture, interior design, automotive, and decorative glass production. Boost your production efficiency with this innovative laser technology.
Key Features:
1.Smooth, clean cuts with no chipping
2.Capable of cutting complex shapes and intricate patterns
3.High-speed cutting for increased productivity 600mm/s
4.Low thermal impact, preserving material integrity
5.Minimal waste and cost-effective
Compared to waterjet, laser cutting offers unique advantages:
High Precision & Clean Edges
Laser beams deliver extremely fine cuts with smooth edges, reducing the need for secondary polishing.
Ideal for thin glass (e.g., 2mm–6mm ultra-clear glass) where precision is critical.
Non-Contact & Minimal Damage
Unlike waterjet, which may cause micro-cracks or require abrasive particles, lasers process glass without direct mechanical force.
This ensures less material waste and higher product quality.
Lower Operating Costs
Waterjet systems require high-pressure pumps, abrasive materials, and large amounts of water.
Laser systems, by contrast, have lower consumables and maintenance costs, offering a higher ROI for long-term production.
Flexibility Across Industries
Our CO2 and ultrafast laser systems can handle ultra-clear glass, display glass, tempered glass, laminated glass, and even coated or patterned glass.
Applications range from electronics (screens, touch panels) to architecture (windows, facades), and home décor (mirrors, glass crafts).
Feature | Laser Glass Cutting | Waterjet Glass Cutting |
---|---|---|
Cutting Precision | High, smooth edges | Good, may require post-polishing |
Operating Cost | Low, fewer consumables | High (abrasives, water, pump maintenance) |
Speed | Fast, especially for thin glass | Slower for fine cutting |
Eco-Friendly | No water or abrasives, clean process | High water usage, abrasive waste |
Applications | Electronics, architecture, décor, automotive | General industrial cutting |
Laser glass cutting is already widely adopted in:
Electronics: smartphone screens, display panels, camera lenses.
Architecture: curtain walls, decorative glass, safety glass.
Interior Design: mirrors, furniture glass, custom décor.
Automotive: windshield shaping, glass panels
Gas stove glass
watch glass cover
Glass for home appliances
Fiber optic lens glass
A European glass processing company recently upgraded its production line by replacing a traditional waterjet cutting machine with our laser glass cutting system.
The customer had been using waterjet technology for years, but faced several challenges:
High operating costs due to abrasives and large water consumption
Frequent maintenance of pumps and nozzles
Slower cutting speed when processing thin glass sheets
After testing our laser glass cutting machine, the customer immediately noticed the difference. The laser provided:
Smooth and precise edges without secondary polishing
Lower production costs, as no abrasives or water are required
Higher efficiency, especially for 2–6mm ultra-clear and tempered glass
Eco-friendly operation with minimal waste
Since adopting the laser solution, the customer has expanded its applications into architectural glass, home décor, and display glass markets, while reducing overall costs by nearly 40%.
Our clients who switched from waterjet to laser systems report:
30–50% reduction in operating costs
Higher precision for high-end products
Faster turnaround times
Cleaner, eco-friendly production process
