With the emergence of AG glass cover, people gradually recognise that it has stronger anti-glare, good touch and corrosion resistance and other advantages, and will play an important role in the application of precision instruments, military equipment, automobiles and other fields. AG technology conforms to this development trend and medical electronic instruments combined with each other to form a new application of glass cover, which can effectively break through the limitations of ordinary glass in the field of medical and health care. It has been widely used. Why? It has a variety of advantages that traditional glass can not be compared. Let's take a look at how AG glass is changing the design of medical devices.
As we all know, the medical industry has strict requirements for the production of medical electronic products. In special environments such as surgery and testing, the focused light needs to be brighter, etc., and the content on the screen needs to be clearly visible. AG coated glass meets this requirement by increasing the transmittance rate to aid in imaging.This ensures that doctors can clearly see the image behind the screen from any angle, even under bright light.
Here's an example:
Once, I went to the hospital and saw a new medical device - a video laryngoscope used to handle tracheal intubation for emergency patients. Previously, it was difficult for doctors to quickly and accurately locate and connect the trachea when resuscitating a patient. However, the display was sometimes too reflective and difficult to see, affecting the operation. The device is now equipped with AG anti-glare glass. This is the first time that the combination of AG glass with everyday life and safety has been observed in practice. In this kind of medical procedure, every aspect of the design and choice of materials for medical equipment must be carefully considered.
AG etched glass belongs to chemical etching. It will not be sterilised with alcohol following medical use like ordinary spray glass, which may delaminate after a while. In contrast, AG etched glass will never delaminate. It meets the anti-corrosion standards and can be adapted for frequent sterilisation before and after medical procedures. And the special coating used on this glass is easier to clean and sterilise, which is critical in preventing the spread of germs and infections.
AG glass is also extremely durable, a must-have quality for medical equipment. Medical equipment and instruments have a long lifespan and are often subjected to a great deal of wear and tear, which can cause ordinary glass to crack or chip. However, AG glass is able to withstand these types of impacts, which reduces equipment failure and repair costs.
For example, ATM machines, and automatic cash registers in restaurants, including anti-glare screen laptops, as well as smartphones' anti-glare protection film, allow consumers to look at the screen and have a clearer visual environment. Some commercial large-scale equipment, tram above the display, including some notices inside the station, or some information display ,with the display, as well as recently we encountered gasoline equipment, also need to carry such a piece of AG anti-glare glass cover, these uses are to allow us to watch the display, there is a clearer environment for eye protection.
In addition, aerospace navigation, due to its working environment, the reflection is very strong. The dashboard display content must be very clear to the operator. A slight display error may cause safety accidents. Therefore, more and more of these anti-glare glass covers are being used. There are some military uses, and in the outdoors too. This includes our recent contact with some of the large special equipment, such as excavators or some of the forest timber felling equipment. Similar to this special industry, it is necessary to provide a safer and more reliable operating environment for operators, as this type of usage is becoming increasingly widespread.
In short, AG glass is used in a wide range of applications, from microscopes to surgical instruments, X-ray machines, DNA testing equipment, laryngoscope displays, cell analysers and more. You can also observe more displays around you in your daily life. Outdoor and indoor, you can see AG coating. It reduces glare, improves durability, facilitates disinfection and provides versatility, making a big difference in today's life in addition to advancing the medical field.
