Abstract
Mechanical disintegration of glass surface layers by the action of composite filaments of a cylindrical brush is a new and unique technology for flat glass frosting. So far, similar tools have been used for metal treatment, e.g. for tool edge grinding or for surface treatment of stainless metal sheets. The technology has a high application potential, and facilitates the creation of new types of products for use in the fields of interior glass, domestic architecture, furniture, and lighting. Firstly, the paper describes the theoretical solutions of the new principle of frosting, and how the acquired knowledge can have a wider applicability in the fields of deburring, grinding of surfaces and edges of metal materials etc. Then, it presents a simulation of the kinetics of a separate filament brush, including an evaluation of the marks formed. Subsequently, the results are verified by laboratory experiments. In the conclusion, we recommend technical conditions for implementing the process of surface frosting.
