CNC Machining
Precision glass machining that conventional shops cannot match. BG Glass Technologies operates two dedicated CNC machine centers to provide the best in glass fabrication. With the combination of care by our CNC operators and state of the art machines, we efficiently fabricate glass with high precision. The highest quality fabrication improves the overall outcome of tempered glass and ultimately facilitates efficient installations.
CNC Machining Centers
Unlike standard single-axis drilling, our CNC machining centers provide multidimensional precision during fabrication, enabling complex glass processing that manual methods cannot replicate.
- Two dedicated CNC machining centers for parallel production
- Intermac “Skill” vertical CNC for tight-tolerance work
- Suited for drilling, door systems, railings, and complex hardware prep
- Digital workflow accepts DXF files, templates, and technical drawings
- Consistent repeatability across production runs
- Full operator monitoring for tool wear and edge quality
CNC Machining Applications
precision hole placement, hardware integration, and clean cutouts are critical to the finished installation.
- Glass railing panels with standoff hardware
- Frameless shower door hinge systems
- Architectural door systems with patch fittings
- Storefront glass with handle and lock cutouts
- Office partitions with pass-through openings
- Custom furniture and display glass with flush-mount hardware
What we machine in-house.
Every capability below is performed on our Intermac machines in our Barrie, Ontario facility. Nothing is sub-contracted. Nothing leaves the building between stages. The result is full fabrication control, consistent quality, and delivery timelines we can actually commit to.
Hole Drilling
Countersinking
Interior Cut-Outs
Notch Cut-Outs
Routers
Polish
Our Process, From Your Drawing to Finished Glass
Every CNC machining project follows a structured workflow to protect your specification, maintain accuracy, and deliver reliable turnaround times. The process is designed to catch errors before fabrication starts, not after your panel is already on a truck.
Step 1. File intake & review.
We accept DXF files, technical drawings, CAD exports, and physical templates we can digitize in house. Every drawing is reviewed by our production team for tolerance conflicts, hardware compatibility, and material suitability before it enters the machining queue.
Step 2. CNC programming.
Your approved file is translated into tool paths optimized for the specific machining operations required. Drill sequences, routing depths, and feed rates are calibrated to the glass type and thickness of your order.
Step 3. Precision machining.
Glass is loaded onto the CNC center and machined according to the programmed tool paths. Operators monitor each run for tool wear, coolant flow, and edge quality. Every hole, notch, and cutout is executed exactly as specified.
Step 4. Quality verification.
Finished panels are measured against the original specification. Hole positions, cutout dimensions, edge quality, and surface integrity are all confirmed before the panel advances to the next stage of production or ships to your site.
Precision in Every Panel
The difference between standard glass fabrication and precision machining shows up on site. Holes align with hardware on the first attempt. Notches seat cleanly into base shoes. Hinges swing true without binding.
Two CNC centers deliver that level of finish through digital accuracy, operator expertise, and production-scale repeatability across every panel.
The result is glass that meets your specification from the first piece to the last, without adjustments, delays, or rework.
