Acid etching systems are used to give glass a frosted look. They are usually designed to process very high volumes of glass.

The output of an acid etching system depends on the size of glass being etched. A typical system has the following outputs:

BOTTLE SIZE (ml) APPROXIMATE NUMBER OF BOTTLES ETCHED PER 8 HOUR SHIFT
1750 23000
750 29000
375 37500
100 50000

All acid etching systems include ventilation fittings ready to be hooked up to an exhaust in your plant. The ventilation protects the workers and the system from acid vapors.  The etching process is automated and requires no human assistance.

The systems can be designed to fit the available space (both size and by shape). A typical system requires 1,500 to 2,500 square feet of space (140 to 230 square meters), including the mixing room, water recycling facility and first aid station.

The acid etching systems are custom-built for each client.  They can be set up to etch liquor bottles, cosmetic containers, tumblers and other types of glass.

PRICES

Because the systems are built to customer specifications, each project is quoted individually.  Please contact us to discuss your needs.
