What yield and afterbreak edge quality can we expect from TLCs equipment?
TLC’s equipment is easily capable of producing yields upward to 100%. However, yield is highly dependent on the operator’s experience and skill. If equal fulcrum pressure is applied to adjoining sides of a scribe, a more precise perpendicular break is accomplished, eliminating hooks and flares. This is another reason TLC strongly recommends manual breaking. Resultant TLC afterbreak edges, in most applications, are clean and require little or no polishing or grinding.
