Packing of padel glass and artificial turf

In the construction and maintenance of modern padel court, the process of boxing glass and grass is equally important. Not only do they complement each other visually and functionally, but they also together influence the overall experience of the field.

Packing of padel glass and artificial turf

Migo considers that customers of padel courts need to purchase accessories for padel courts when purchasing glass for padel courts, so it provides customers with the service of packing padel court grass. Migo considers customers and provides two types of artificial grass for padel courts: 12mm Gauge3/16" and 15mm Gauge3/8". This article explains the packing of glass and artificial grass for padel courts.

• First use knitting to tuft the artificial grass filaments on the base fabric.
• As the roller enters the adhesive process workshop, the adhesive process has a very good tear resistance effect.
• Send the glued lawn into a large oven for rapid drying
• Install evenly distributed drainage outlets on the back of the lawn and conduct finished product inspection.

• Raw material preparation

The production of tempered glass begins with the selection of raw materials. The main raw materials are high silicate glass, usually including silicon dioxide, sodium oxide, calcium oxide and magnesium oxide. These raw materials are melted at high temperatures to form a uniform glass melt. At this stage, manufacturers must ensure the purity of the raw materials to avoid impurities affecting the transparency and strength of the glass.

• Melting and forming

The raw materials are placed in a furnace, usually at a temperature of about 1400℃, the raw materials will be completely melted to form a glass melt. After the melting is completed, the melt is cooled under precise control to form a glass sheet. Common forming methods include:

Float process: The molten glass is cooled by floating on liquid tin to form a glass sheet with uniform thickness.

Rolling process: The molten glass is rolled into the required thickness through a calender.
After forming, the glass sheets are cut to the required size and ready for the next step.

• Annealing

The cut glass sheets need to be annealed to eliminate internal stress. The temperature of the annealing furnace is usually between 600℃ and 700℃, and the glass sheets are slowly cooled in the furnace to ensure their uniformity and stability. This step is crucial because any residual stress will cause the glass to break during the subsequent tempering process.

• Tempering process

The annealed glass sheets enter the tempering furnace for tempering. The tempering process includes two main steps:

Heating: The glass sheets are heated to about 620℃ to 650℃ in the tempering furnace. At this temperature, the glass becomes soft and can be rapidly cooled.

Rapid cooling: After heating, the glass sheets quickly enter the cooling chamber and are rapidly cooled using high-pressure air. This process causes the surface of the glass to cool rapidly, while the internal temperature is higher, forming a state of surface compression and internal tension, thereby greatly improving the glass's resistance to bending and impact.

• Cutting and processing

The tempered glass can be further processed according to customer needs. Professional cutting tools should be used when cutting to prevent the glass from breaking. In addition, tempered glass can also be polished, drilled, and filmed to adapt to different application scenarios.

• Quality Inspection

Quality inspection is essential at every stage of production. Quality inspection of tempered glass includes:

Appearance inspection: observe whether there are bubbles, scratches or other defects on the surface of the glass.
Physical performance test: through tests such as compression, bending and impact, ensure that the glass meets relevant standards.
Heat treatment test: confirm the temperature and cooling rate reached by the glass during the tempering process.

• Packaging and transportation

Qualified tempered glass is carefully packaged and usually wrapped with shockproof materials to prevent damage during transportation. The product specifications, quantity and precautions will be marked on the packaging box to ensure the safety of transportation.

• Choose suitable glass and artificial turf: According to the needs of the site, choose glass and artificial turf with high safety and transparency, such as shatterproof glass, for fencing or sight blocking.
• Manufacturing and inspection: Ensure that the glass is strictly inspected during the production process and meets durability and safety standards to avoid risks in subsequent use.
• Packing preparation: Before packing, use materials such as foam, cartons or wooden boxes for protection to prevent damage during transportation.
• Packing process: Carefully place the glass pieces in the packaging box to ensure that they are not squeezed, and use partitions to separate them to prevent collisions.
• Labeling and transportation: Label each box with clear labels, contents and precautions to ensure safety during transportation and unloading.
• Interaction between grass and glass

In padel court, the combination of grass and glass is particularly important. The lawn provides the basis for the game, while the glass provides a good view for the audience. When designing the venue, the reasonable arrangement of the transparency of the glass and the location of the lawn can effectively enhance the viewing experience. In addition, the maintenance of the grass is also closely related to the installation and location of the glass. For example, the reflection and refraction of the glass may affect the growth of the lawn, especially in poor lighting conditions. Therefore, when planning, designers need to consider the interaction between grass and glass to ensure the best effect of both.

In conclusion, the packing process of padel court grass and glass plays a key role in design and maintenance. Through reasonable selection of materials, fine packing process and comprehensive maintenance, the safety and viewing quality of the field can be ensured. The combination of the two not only improves the quality of the game, but also enhances the viewing experience of the audience, making the cricket field an ideal place for sports and entertainment.
