Relying On Professional Glass Cutters For Successful Scribing And Cleaving

Scribing is a process where you intentionally make a weak point on a given substrate to break it from that exact location by putting pressure around the scribe line. Although a simple step, the following cleaving process results depend entirely on the quality of the scribing.

If you want to get the best results, you need to have a sound structural understanding of the material you’re working with, how it will cleave, and professional glass cutters to achieve success.

How to get your hands on the best scribing tool in the market?

Not every top-quality scribing and cleaving tool is meant for your business. You need to consider your production needs and substrate samples to determine the type of scribing and cleaving tool best suited to your specifications.

There are three tiers of scribing tools you need to ponder on before purchasing one.

Pen-style scriber

A typical use of this glass scribe pen is when downsizing big sample pieces into more manageable pieces without the need for accurate measurements.

It is affordable, quick, and easy to use with a variety of diamond-tipped angles to exploit as needed. However, it isn’t meant for industrial purposes that require precision with every scribe line since accuracy isn’t a strong point for a pen-style glass scoring tool.

Precision glass cutters

Precision glass cutters employ specialized diamond or silicon carbide wheels to downsize substrates placed on a stationary steel base. The wheels come in specific widths to cater to various types of substrates, supported by a guard rail for straight scribe lines.

These glass cutters offer a decent level of accuracy but when compared to a pen scriber, the wheels make a wider scribe line which can result in inaccurate cleaving.
