The rubbing action in lapping can be done manually or by use of machine.
Ceramic lapping process.
It is a expensive process.
Our customers like to use lapping when it is difficult or impossible to achieve a desired surface finish or flatness.
As these surfaces move past each other the ceramic component is slowly abraded away until a highly smooth surface finish is achieved.
Lapping is the process of using a loose abrasive between two surfaces that rub together thus abrading the part.
Lapping is a machining process in which two surfaces are rubbed together with an abrasive between them by hand movement or using a machine.
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.
It is used in ceramic machining.
Material can be lapped down to as thin as 003 with a tolerance as low as 0001.
Applications of lapping process.
According to it lapping can be divided into two types.
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 brittle material machining.

Lapping is when a loose abrasive is used between two surfaces that rub together.
