1.6mm Low Iron Solar Glass

MIGO 1.6mm Low Iron Solar Glass is an ultra-thin solar glass designed for lightweight photovoltaic modules, BIPV systems, and customized solar products. Its reduced thickness helps lower overall module weight while maintaining the optical performance required for solar energy applications.

Made from low-iron glass, the product provides high light transmission to support efficient sunlight utilization by photovoltaic cells. Because 1.6mm glass is thinner than conventional solar glass, precise cutting, edge processing, tempering, and flatness control are important throughout production.

Custom sizes, surface patterns, coating options, edge processing, and export packaging are available according to module drawings and project requirements.

With advanced equipment, strict quality control, and years of experience in solar glass manufacturing, MIGO SOLAR GLASS provides reliable 1.6mm low iron solar glass solutions to customers worldwide.

1. Glass Cutting

Equipment: Glass Cutting Machine

High-precision cutting machines are used to ensure accurate dimensions and clean cutting edges. Tight tolerance control at this stage is essential for downstream processing of ultra-thin solar glass.

2. Glass Edge Grinding

Equipment: Edge Grinding Machine

All glass edges are finely ground to reduce micro-cracks and improve mechanical strength. Proper edge processing significantly lowers the risk of breakage during tempering and module lamination.It also helps improve tempering stability and glass flatness for ultra-thin solar glass applications.

3. Glass Cleaning and Drying

Equipment: Cleaning and Drying Machine

Multiple-stage washing and drying remove glass dust, grinding residues, and surface contaminants. Clean glass surfaces are critical for optical performance, coating adhesion, and stable tempering results.

4. Glass Tempering

Equipment: Ultra-Thin Glass Tempering Furnace

Tempering is the most critical step in producing 1.6mm ultra-thin solar glass. Compared with conventional tempering furnaces, ultra-thin glass requires far more precise thermal and process control to avoid warping, distortion, or breakage.
