  • Lapping Plate
    Lapping Plate 05M20.20 Patent Pending Lapping is the process of rubbing two surfaces together with an abrasive and a lubricant to improve the quality of at least one of the surfaces. Although lapping can be used to create fl at surfaces, in the context of woodworking, lapping better serves to minimize the roughness of a surface – known as surface conditioning. By minimizing the roughness in the sole of a plane, there is reduced friction between the plane and the workpiece, which in turn reduces abrasion. For blades or chisels, the cutting edge can be made sharper if both intersecting surfaces are free of scratches, even if the back of the blade isn’t perfectly fl at. Straight cutting edge on a lapped blade. Jagged cutting edge on a ground blade. Figure 1: A ground blade versus a lapped blade. Lapping can remove only small amounts of material. If the sole of your plane or the back of your blade is twisted, wavy or bowed, it will be necessary to sand or grind off the high points prior to lapping. Lapping is always performed with an abrasive oil slurry, which not only allows the object to slide Small Abrasive about the lapping plate (called a lap), but also Particles provides a means to remove abraded particles and worn abrasive. Oil Object Abraded Metal Lap Groove in Lap Large Abrasive Particles Figure 2: Lapping mechanics. 2 Important Notes The lapping plate is made of soft iron and will wear over time. These instructions provide information on how to ensure the lap remains fl at for a lifetime.

  • Grinding Machine Construction Types of Grinders
    Grinding machine A grinding machine is a machine tool used for producing very fine finishes or making very light cuts, using an abrasive wheel as the cutting device. This wheel can be made up of various sizes and types of stones, diamonds or of inorganic materials. For machines used to reduce particle size in materials processing see grinding. Construction The grinding machine consists of a power driven grinding wheel spinning at the required speed (which is determined by the wheel’s diameter and manufacturer’s rating, usually by a formula) and a bed with a fixture to guide and hold the work-piece. The grinding head can be controlled to travel across a fixed work piece or the workpiece can be moved whilst the grind head stays in a fixed position. Very fine control of the grinding head or tables position is possible using a vernier calibrated hand wheel, or using the features of NC or CNC controls. Grinding machines remove material from the workpiece by abrasion, which can generate substantial amounts of heat; they therefore incorporate a coolant to cool the workpiece so that it does not overheat and go outside its tolerance. The coolant also benefits the machinist as the heat generated may cause burns in some cases. In very high-precision grinding machines (most cylindrical and surface grinders) the final grinding stages are usually set up so that they remove about 2/10000mm (less than 1/100000 in) per pass - this generates so little heat that even with no coolant, the temperature rise is negligible. Types of grinders These machines include the Belt grinder, which is usually used as a machining method to process metals and other materials, with the aid of coated abrasives.

Grupo de Investigación sobre Nuevos Materiales GINUMA – A.A. 56006 Medellín, Colombia Abstract: This paper reports the -SiC particles surface modification by copper Electroless Plating (EP), as well as a morphological characterization of Al-Si reinforced composite obtained with such modified particles and consolidated by compoforging. The -SiC particles were obtained by thermal degradation of organic waste. The compoforging technique is a hybrid between the compocasting process and semi-solid forging. The properties of the obtained composite material derive from its globular structure, which is achieved by mixing the semi-solid alloy and the reinforcing particles. This method produced an almost perfect distribution of the reinforce particles. Furthermore, it is possible to achieve minimum defects (i.e. porosity) by applying pressures up to 60MPa.

In order to satisfy the demand, a number of different micro drilling techniques have been developed. There has been, however, no report which explains, compares and contrasts all of these micro drilling techniques. This study examines the lasts micro drilling methods and techniques, categorises them into different groups, highlights recent developments and new trends, and depicts the future requirements in the field of micro drilling.
