Manufacturing capability
These features are produced by cnc machining or laser cutting. Capability: width from 0.4 mm, length any, ends R0.2 mm min. Design rule worth copying onto the drawing: slot web between features at least 1x thickness.
Design guidance
Before sending the RFQ, check these against your drawing:
- Feature rule: slot web between features at least 1x thickness.
- 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.
Where these parts end up
The recurring buyers of glass with slots: laser systems (windows, beam splitters, debris shields); mems devices (cap wafers, TGV substrates, motion-sensor lids); laboratory instruments (cuvettes, sight glasses, stir-cell windows).

Buyer questions, answered
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 slots?
Slot web between features at least 1x thickness.
Is there a minimum order for glass with slots?
No. Single prototypes are accepted, and pricing steps down at 10, 100 and 1,000 pieces.
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.
