One of the first steps when processing glass is cutting large panes into smaller units.
By scoring the glass surface, tensions in the glass are released and lead to the break when bending the pane in a controlled manner - either by hand or with a tool.
Only when using a suitable tool is it guaranteed that the glass breaks precisely where desired.
The principle of glass laser cutting is to use the energy of the laser beam to instantly vaporize the glass surface and form small bubbles, thereby producing an instant burst effect and cutting the glass.
