发明名称 Method and system for finishing glass sheets
摘要 A method of finishing glass sheets includes forming a stack comprising alternating layers of unfinished glass sheets and spacer pads. The stack is such that there is no physical contact between any two adjacent unfinished glass sheets and outer edges of the spacer pads are recessed relative to outer edges of the unfinished glass sheets. The stack is secured by clamping the unfinished glass sheets and spacer pads together and then supported on a working surface. The unfinished glass sheets of the stack are finished simultaneously while the stack is supported on the working surface. After the finishing, the stack comprises alternating layers of finished glass sheets and spacer pads.

主权项 1. A method of finishing glass sheets, comprising: forming a stack comprising alternating layers of unfinished glass sheets and spacer pads, the stack being such that there is no physical contact between any two adjacent unfinished glass sheets and outer edges of the spacer pads are recessed relative to outer edges of the unfinished glass sheets; securing the stack by clamping the unfinished glass sheets and spacer pads together in a magnetizer fixture that applies a magnetic clamping force to the stack; placing the stack, in its secured state, on a working surface; supporting the stack that has been secured on a working surface; finishing the unfinished glass sheets of the stack simultaneously while the stack is supported on the working surface, wherein after the finishing the stack comprises alternating layers of finished glass sheets and spacer pads; forming holes in the unfinished glass sheets before or during the finishing, the holes being bounded by inner edges; and removing the stack, in its secured state, from the working surface, wherein the finishing comprises grinding the outer edges of the unfinished glass sheets simultaneously, the finishing comprises polishing the inner edges simultaneously, and the entire finishing occurs without unsecuring the stack or removing the stack from the working surface.
