Abstract
In a method of cutting a plasma display panel, a front glass substrate and a rear glass substrate are sealed so as to face each other. The front glass substrate and the rear glass substrate are sandwiched between pairs of rotating cutters, and the pairs of rotating cutters are pressed onto the front glass substrate and the rear glass substrate to be in contact therewith so that the rotating cutters are run thereon in order to cut the substrates.
Claims7
A method of cutting a plasma display panel including a front glass substrate and a rear glass substrate overlapped with each other and sealed with a sealing member, the method comprising:
- sandwiching the front glass substrate and the rear glass substrate between a pair of glass cutting members, and cutting the front glass substrate and the rear glass substrate in such a manner that the pair of glass cutting members is pressed and run with respect to the front glass substrate and the rear glass substrate, wherein
- at least one of pressing force and running speed of the glass cutting member is different respectively in a glass-substrate sealed part where the sealing member is formed, a glass-substrate central part where the front glass substrate and the rear glass substrate are overlapped with each other with an interval therebetween, and a glass-substrate end part where only one of the front glass substrate and the rear glass substrate is present.
