Manufacture of multiple glazing units from glass sheets provided with a metallic coating

Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to the glass industry and more particularly to glass carrying a multilayer reflective coating, a metallic layer being in contact at least on one side with a metal oxide or semiconductor layer. The invention proposes to remove, especially in the region of the edges of the glass sheets, at least the upper coating layers, without attacking the glass, i.e. the possible layers which cover the metal layer and the metal layer itself, including the interface between this same metal layer and the oxide layer lying immediately below. Application especially to the manufacture of multiple insulating glazing consisting of one or more coated glass sheets.
