You score the surface with a diamond or a wheel, and you&rsquo;re basically just hoping for the best. When the glass is too cold, the cracks don&rsquo;t follow the line—they jump around. That&rsquo;s how you end up with those annoying chips and corner breakouts that ruin a perfectly good piece. We fix this by using short-wave infrared (SWIR) heating tubes to warm things up before the blade ever touches the glass.</p>
