Edge Polishing

By Nanocomp Ltd

To pursue maximized preciseness, a polishing line has been introduced to our manufacturing facility in China. Edge polishing is a fast post-process step turning the semi-rough edges of the lightguide plate (LGP) into glossy – or even mirrorlike – optical quality. Prior to the polishing, the microroughness of the die-cutting edges (side walls of LGP) is of comparable scale to grinding. Despite the minimal proportional area of the edges in a LGP, an undesired optical effect may appear in the final application. With polishing applied, the microroughness is significantly improved. Therefore, our polishing procedure eliminates the potential edge glow effect in the final display products, where applicable. This offers great advantages to our clients.
