At a time when science and technology are developing rapidly, smart home products are constantly being innovated. As a star product among them, smart mirrors are gradually entering people’s lives. Smart mirrors integrate touch screen interaction and voice control, bringing a new experience to users. In the production process of smart mirrors, smart mirror sandblasting machines play a vital role.
Smart mirror sandblasting machine is a new type of equipment used in the production and manufacturing of smart mirrors. It uses laser etching to control the energy and displacement of the laser beam to perform laser frosting on the surface of the smart mirror. When the laser is irradiated to the mirror surface, the irradiated area will immediately heat to a high temperature and cool rapidly to form a delicate frosting effect. This sandblasting process has no consumables, uniform sandblasting effect, high precision, strong controllability, can quickly realize the molding of the mirror surface, and can also laser sandblast various patterns or textures according to needs.
Compared with traditional chemical dissolution and mechanical sandblasting methods, smart mirror sandblasting machines have significant advantages. Chemical dissolution uses hydrofluoric acid solution to dissolve the surface of the smart mirror, which not only produces harmful chemicals and pollutes the environment, but also poses safety hazards. Mechanical sandblasting uses high-pressure air to spray abrasive materials such as sand or silicon carbide onto the surface of the smart mirror, which will generate a lot of dust and pollute the working environment. In addition, the long-term use cost of sand as a consumable is high. The smart mirror sandblasting machine uses laser processing, which does not produce waste, meets environmental protection requirements, and avoids health hazards to operators. In terms of processing accuracy, the laser beam can be precisely controlled, and can achieve complex and fine surface treatment to meet the production needs of high-end customized smart mirrors, which is difficult to achieve with traditional processes.
In the production of smart mirrors, smart mirror sandblasting machines can be used for three main processes: smart mirror sandblasting, mirror/glass drilling, and mirror film removal. Taking smart mirror sandblasting as an example, it can accurately form a frosted effect in the specified area of the mirror surface, providing suitable light transmittance and aesthetics for the touch buttons, display areas, etc. of the smart mirror. In terms of mirror drilling, it can easily achieve micron-level processing accuracy, meet high-precision requirements such as smart mirror installation holes, and has a fast drilling speed, which greatly shortens the production cycle. For mirror film removal, laser sandblasting can efficiently remove the film layer, with clear markings and fast speed, ensuring product quality.
In addition to the field of smart mirror production, smart mirror sandblasting machines are also widely used in many other fields that require high-precision glass processing. In the field of architectural decoration, it can be used for surface treatment of glass curtain walls, glass screens, etc. to create unique visual effects; in the field of household goods, bathroom mirrors, makeup mirrors, etc., through laser sandblasting technology, not only improve practicality, such as anti-fog and anti-rust properties, but also enhance the appearance and durability; in the field of electronic products, the protective glass of precision electronic products can be processed to meet its high-precision process requirements.
With the continuous advancement of science and technology, smart mirror sandblasting machines are also developing continuously. In the future, it will move towards higher precision, higher efficiency, and more intelligent directions. For example, the smart mirror laser cleaning and sandblasting solution based on the laser galvanometer motion controller developed by Positive Motion uses a four-axis linkage algorithm to achieve “walking and sanding” in a large-scale processing area, one-time molding, without multiple pauses and repositioning, effectively solving the problem of seam dislocation caused by large-scale laser processing splicing errors, and improving large-format processing efficiency and processing quality. Moreover, by continuously optimizing laser parameter control and automation integration, the smart mirror sandblasting machine will better meet the diversified needs of the market and bring more innovation and development opportunities to the glass processing industry.
The smart mirror sandblasting machine, with its advanced technology and significant advantages, plays an important role in the production of smart mirrors and other glass processing fields, and has broad development prospects, which will continue to promote the progress and development of related industries.
