Manufacturing capability
These features are produced by cnc machining or laser cutting. Capability: notch width from 0.5 mm, positioned +/-0.05 mm. Design rule worth copying onto the drawing: radius every internal notch corner – sharp corners crack.
Design guidance
Three items decide most of the cost and lead time on this work:
- Feature rule: radius every internal notch corner – sharp corners crack.
- Over-specification is the quiet budget killer: a 20/10 scratch-dig face costs roughly three times an 80/50 face, so grade each surface individually.
The full rules live in our tolerance design guide and holes and edges design guide.
Typical applications
The recurring buyers of glass with edge notches: industrial displays (touch covers, gauge windows, printed bezels); aerospace optics (sensor windows, star-tracker flats, radiation-tolerant ports); machine vision (camera windows, ring-light diffusers, calibration plates).

Frequently asked questions
How fast can prototypes ship?
Machined prototypes ship in 5 – 10 working days. Coated or bonded parts add 1 – 2 weeks depending on queue slots.
What files do you need for a quote?
A dimensioned PDF plus DXF or STEP geometry. If only a sketch exists, our drawing review service formalizes it before quoting.
Do parts ship with inspection data?
Dimensional reports, surface certificates and material certs per melt are available; specify the level on the RFQ.
What is the design rule for edge notches?
Radius every internal notch corner – sharp corners crack.
Is there a minimum order for glass with edge notches?
No. Single prototypes are accepted, and pricing steps down at 10, 100 and 1,000 pieces.
