What We Do

Cutting Capabilities

Our CO₂ laser system is optimised for glass — controlled thermal scribing and full-cut modes deliver chip-free edges without the micro-cracks of mechanical cutting.

Cutting Tolerance

Dimensional accuracy across float, borosilicate and display glass in both scribing and full-cut modes.

±0.1mm

Why Choose Us

What Makes Our Glass Cutting Different

Glass is unforgiving — one wrong parameter and the sheet cracks. Our process is tuned per material, not one-size-fits-all.

CO₂ Laser — the Right Tool for Glass

CO₂ at 10.6 μm is absorbed directly by glass — no energy is wasted on transmission or reflection. This gives precise thermal control, clean scribing lines, and significantly lower chipping rates versus diamond wheel or waterjet on brittle glass types.

Material-Specific Parameters for Every Glass Type

Borosilicate and quartz have very different thermal expansion coefficients from float glass. We maintain separate cutting profiles for each glass type — not a generic setting applied universally — which eliminates stress fractures on speciality substrates.

Ultra-Thin Glass Capability

0.3 mm display glass and 0.5 mm borosilicate are handled with vacuum-assist fixturing and scribe-and-break mode. Most job shops decline ultra-thin glass — we have the process dialled in for consistent results at volume.

Singapore Facility — Fast Turnaround, No Export Delays

Glass is fragile in transit — every additional shipment leg adds breakage risk. Our Singapore factory means short local delivery, same-timezone communication, and the option to self-collect for high-value or urgent glass components.

FAQ

Glass Cutting Questions

No — tempered glass cannot be cut after toughening. The internal stress that gives it strength causes the entire sheet to shatter when the surface is scored. Glass must be cut to final shape first, then sent for tempering. We can cut annealed float glass to your dimensions before it goes to a tempering furnace.

We regularly cut glass down to 0.3 mm (300 μm) — typical for TFT display substrates and ultra-thin cover glass. At this thickness we use vacuum-chuck fixturing and scribe-and-break mode to prevent flexural breakage during handling. For glass below 0.5 mm, please contact us to discuss handling and packaging requirements for your application.
 
Yes — this is one of the key advantages of laser cutting over diamond wheel or mechanical saw. We can cut any 2D profile from your DXF file: circles, arcs, polygons, slots, internal holes, and fully custom contours. Internal cutouts (holes within a sheet) are possible from approximately 10 mm diameter and larger. Tight concave corners may require a minimum radius depending on glass thickness.
 
Both options work. We stock common float glass in 3 mm, 4 mm, 6 mm, and 8 mm thicknesses. For speciality glass — borosilicate, quartz, optical grades, display substrates — we can source it or you can supply your own sheets. If you supply material, ship it flat-packed with foam interleaving and include your order reference number.
 
For standard float glass shapes from stock, we can often deliver same-day or next-day for small quantities (under 20 pcs). For speciality glass that needs to be sourced, add 3–5 working days for material procurement. Production batches of 100–500 pcs are typically completed in 3–5 working days. Your quote will always confirm the delivery date based on current queue and material availability.
 
Small pieces are wrapped individually in foam and packed upright in double-wall cartons. Larger panels are shipped in wooden crates with corner protection and foam interleaving between each sheet. For ultra-thin or optical glass, we use anti-static foam and ESD-safe packaging on request. We can also arrange white-glove local delivery for high-value or fragile shipments.
