Lapping Plate Facing & Grooving Machine

Introducing the KEMET 15 Floor Standing Precision Diamond Flat Lapping and Polishing Machine with Integrated Plate Grooving and Lapping Plate Facing capabilities. This versatile machine is designed to deliver exceptional results for precision lapping and polishing applications, specifically tailored for Kemet Composite Plates. The KEMET 15 boasts a robust metal construction, ensuring stability and durability during operation. Its adjustable worktable allows for precise positioning, while the machine's HMI/PLC control system provides seamless control over its functions and convenient storage for different programs.

Featuring an integrated Plate Grooving Unit, this machine allows for the creation of grooves on lapping plates, enabling efficient and effective material removal during the lapping process. The Lapping Plate Facing capability ensures the plates are perfectly flat and smooth, guaranteeing optimal performance and precision.

In addition to its core functionalities, the KEMET 15 offers a range of optional add-ons to further enhance its performance and versatility. The Positive Drives Motor Unit, complete with a Yoke Roller, ensures smooth and efficient operation. The Automatic Liquid Diamond Dispenser & Stirrer provides accurate and controlled distribution of diamond abrasive onto the lapping plates. For added protection and safety, the Machine Protective Cover is also available. Furthermore, the Water Cooled Lapping Plate System & Chiller maintains the ideal operating temperatures, ensuring consistent performance.

The facing feature of the machine ensures that the lapping plate's surface is perfectly flat and smooth. Over time, lapping plates can develop imperfections or wear due to repeated use. By facing the plate, any irregularities or roughness on its surface are removed, restoring it to an optimal condition. This process is crucial for maintaining the plate's accuracy and consistency, as it directly impacts the quality of the lapping and polishing results.

The grooving capability of the machine allows for the creation of grooves on the lapping plate's surface. These grooves serve an important purpose during the lapping process. They facilitate the even distribution of the abrasive slurry or paste used for material removal. The grooves act as channels, enabling efficient circulation and controlled distribution of the abrasive, resulting in uniform and precise material removal across the workpiece. This ensures consistent and accurate lapping results.

By combining facing and grooving functionalities in a single machine, lapping plate facing and grooving machines offer a comprehensive solution for maintaining and optimizing the performance of lapping plates. They enable users to achieve flat, smooth, and properly grooved lapping surfaces, ensuring the highest level of precision and quality in lapping and polishing applications.
