Does the VPI equipment scribe with diamonds or wheels?
VPI utilizes both diamonds and wheels for scribing, depending on the thickness of the glass. Where glass thickness exceeds 0.25 mm (0.010 in.) VPI’s Precision Glass Scribing technology delivers excellent results with one or more tungsten carbide cutting wheels in either linear or shapes products. Where glass thickness is less, diamonds are recommended. VPI has current customers scribing glass as thin as 0.050mm (0.002 in).
