Beveling and Edging Equipment
Beyond the Edge
A number of polishing products for beveling machinery are available from Salem Fabrication Supplies. These include Axion and Vista cerium oxide polishing compounds and NovaFelt felt wheels. Axion, a high production grade white polishing compound, provides consistent particle hardness and size. Vista is equally effective in both production glass polishing applications and glass cleaning in pre-silvering scrubs, according to the company. The NovaFelt line features a polyester fiber architecture that readily accepts a cerium charge but resists “loading” and glazing. The wheels provide a polish like natural wool with the characteristics of synthetic materials.
