It is used in glass machining.

Ceramic lapping process.

Lapping is the process of using a loose abrasive between two surfaces that rub together thus abrading the part. According to it lapping can be divided into two types. The object is to produce parts with a uniformly smooth and usually flat surface a surface that has been lapped exhibits a dull non reflective and multi directional appearance. Lapping is when a loose abrasive is used between two surfaces that rub together.

Typically lapping is used to achieve a surface roughness and flatness beyond the capabilities of standard grinding. The first type of lapping traditionally called grinding involves rubbing a brittle material such as glass against a surface such as iron or glass itself also known as the lap or grinding tool with an abrasive such as. It is used in ceramic machining. The rubbing action in lapping can be done manually or by use of machine.

Applications of lapping process. Lapping is an averaging process where the greatest material removal occurs where the high points of the surface of the part contact the flat lap plate. Materials as large as 16 square or diameter. Achieving smoother surfaces on ceramic and other hard materials.

It is used in brittle material machining. This can take two forms. Lapping is a machining process in which two surfaces are rubbed together with an abrasive between them by hand movement or using a machine. Our customers like to use lapping when it is difficult or impossible to achieve a desired surface finish or flatness.
