FAQ
How do I know if machinery glass needs replacing instead of repairing?
Small chips in machinery glass may sometimes be repaired if the damage is minor and not spreading. However, larger cracks or damage near the edges of the glass may require a full replacement. The location of the crack can also affect visibility for the operator, which may make replacement the safer option. If the structural strength of the glass is affected, replacement is usually recommended. Assessing the damage early helps determine the best solution.
What causes cracks in machinery windscreens?
Cracks in machinery windscreens are commonly caused by stones or debris striking the glass while equipment is operating. Machines working on gravel roads, paddocks or construction sites are exposed to flying debris more often. Vibrations from rough ground can also cause small chips to spread into larger cracks. Temperature changes may place additional stress on damaged glass. These factors can cause minor damage to worsen over time.
How do chips turn into cracks in windscreens?
A small chip in a windscreen can spread into a larger crack when the glass is exposed to vibration, pressure or temperature changes. Machinery operating on rough ground often creates constant movement that places stress on damaged glass. Driving over uneven surfaces can cause the chip to expand further across the windscreen. Over time the crack may grow large enough to require replacement. Repairing chips early can help prevent this from happening.
