      No can do...
      I have been working with wiper system design in the automotive industry for close to 3 decades.
      Most vehicles have a tandem wiper system (both driver- and passengerside wiper arm&blades are parked, pointing in the same direction and moving in the same direction).
      The little shark fin is the result of the distance between the outer tip of the driver side wiper blade and the inner tip of the passenger side blade.
      The blades need some distance (or clearance) between each other in order not to collide during operation.
      Also, the thing about the dots is not fully correct.
      There are windshields without them.
      Yes, they do even out the temperature in the glass, but more importantly, they make the transition between clear glass and the black band look nicer.
      It's hard to make an even fading that gradually becomes clear since the black band is printed to the glass. The dot's gives more or less the same function, but are much easier to make.

    The windshield professionals tell this:
    They serve as a contact point between the glass and car frame. They create “etches” on the surface, making them rougher so the adhesive can stick better to the glass.
    They help preserve the urethane sealant used to bond the glass to the frame. They use the black enamel outside the windshield to block the sun’s ultraviolet rays from melting the adhesive underneath the band. This keeps the windows firmly glued in their place.
    The black dots, or “dot matrix” actually help distribute temperature evenly to lessen optical distortion or “lensing”. This happens when the frit band (the solid black one) heats up much faster than the windscreen’s glass, creating an optical distortion that makes either straight lines look curved or bowed inwards toward the centre. Those “gradually sinking” black dots help lessen this phenomenon by dissipating the heat and spreading it out evenly.
    Frits are also there for aesthetic purposes. If you look closely, the contrast between the dark band and the transparent glass can look too obvious even when viewed from afar. Creating a halftone pattern or “dot-matrix” allows a gradual decrease in size, making the transition much more subtle and easier on the eyes.
    Frits are slowly evolving over the years and modern cars now add “third visor frits” right behind the rear-view mirror to block the sun between two sun visors.

  • @karmalewis8098
    @karmalewis8098 Год назад +664

    I work at a automotive glass factory. Fun fact this often goes through 3 heating phases depending on how much print is on it. The black dots are called a Dot matrix, and we have a standard for how many can be missing in a 5 inch area. It's printed on first, goes through a casso, which is essentially a long hot kiln, and then many modern backlights have a secondary printing done on top, after the first trip through a casso. This time it's in silver, which is how you get the heated backshields, which also have their own standards, IE cannot have any broken lines, it is both a safety hazard and will make a defective product. After the silver it goes through the furnace is which is between 1500°-3000° depending on what glass you're running due to things like thickness. After it comes out of the furnace it glows cherry red and goes through the press that molds it into the rounded shape and then through an immediate cooling process which is how it is tempered so that instead of the big stabby I'll kill you pieces you get the Itty bitty little pieces that shatter more cleanly without causing major injuries. We also have to map and track the spider patterns to make sure it shatters properly and turn it in every 3 hours. Overall an average line has 4 printers, 2 furnace specialists between 3-6 packers and 1-2 truckers and sometimes more depending on what we are running IE the part type and how fast we can run it. It also goes through AA but I don't know shit about that part of the process

      @patrickjohnerana4303 that's more of a different departments expertise but from what I remember learning is it's because of the way the paint works on the individual glass. Cars have 2 types of glass (normally) what we call Galaxsee (black) and EZ-Kool. (Greenish blue). We have to make the paints completely different for both glass Colors to get them to adhere and work properly.

    I can confirm. Also, It's an Enamel that is cured when the windshield is tempered in the oven so if it's done properly, you can't scratch it because it turns like glass.
    If you can scratch them, is because the serigraphy was put after the tempering (cheaper because if the windshield brakes in the oven you lost the enamel + labour).

      I went to the Enstrom Helicopter factory in Menomonee Michigan. They had a bunch of flame throwers heating up a pit. They had a cage/framework that had short strings hanging down at certain points. On the side of the pit was a stack of plexiglass sheets about 5 feet high. They could lay a sheet on top of the pit and let the heat soften the plastic. At a key point, the operator would whistle out to the shop and about ten guys would drop what they were doing and lift the cage over the plexiglass. Air would be blown into the pit and the plastic would rise towards the strings (they served as gauges). When the plastic touched the strings, heat was reduced and cooling air was blown in, freezing the plexiglass into the bubble windshield for the helicopter. A large number would bubble out in one spot and immediately be rejected. Others would later be rejected by Quality Control because of optical distortion. They had something like a 90% rejection rate...hence the big pile of sheets.

    There are also black lines across your backlight (back window) coming from the frit to aid the defroster, the lines help disperse heat across your backlight.

      If your window has a crack in it it's bound to happen eventually. Especially if you turn on the defroster or AC. The temperature difference causes the glass to warp and expands the crack.

  • @tyler7535

    Former AutoGlass technician here:
    The frit is a ceramic coating on the glass that provides a surface for the adhesive to grab onto and hiding the adhesive is a secondary attribute.
    The dots are purely aesthetic and have nothing to do with heat dissipation. Auto glass can get very hot very quickly and can withstand these temperatures - the same applies to the adhesive.
    Automotive glass is a type of glass called laminated glass which are two pieces of glass that are secured together with a thin piece of plastic using heat and pressure.
    Laminated glass is very strong and provides rigidity to the frame of the vehicle in conjunction with the adhesive. It varies by brand, but autoglass adhesive can generally withstand about 80lbs psi.
    I hope this helps!
