The lapping machining process requires a variety of unique elements. Our team fully understands these safety steps and provides lapping machining that works for your needs. Each project is carefully planned, prepared, and executed to meet your part needs and to minimize any material waste that may cost you money.
Our lapping machining professionals understand the unique specifications that come with this process. We can work on parts between 0.15-inch and 18 inches in diameter. Our team is capable of parallelism of less than 0.0005-inch, which gives you the high-quality flatness and uniform style that you need to produce highly precise machined parts.
Lapping machining works by suspending material in a carefully prepared oil and water mixture and using a rotating wheel to carefully remove material from the part. As the wheel turns, it pushes this loose abrasive against the material and helps form a uniformly ultra-flat part.
Our team carefully identifies how to prepare your part by checking your schematics, examining your part heat treat specifications, and carefully testing each produced part. We’ll then program our machines to start the lapping machining process to ensure that you get the parts your business needs.
Typically, we prefer using a water-based slurry in our manufacturing because it is less hazardous and safer for the environment. We strive to protect the environment by using the safest and most reliable machining processes, those that won’t cause any serious contamination or pollution in this beautiful region.
The achievable polished finish that is with lapping machining improves numerous aspects of part quality and equipment performance. Previously defective parts with rough edges and burrs can be transformed into truly smooth and effective parts. Uneven tapers or other dimensional inconsistencies can be safely recalibrated and optimized to enhance surface contact or reduce friction in mating or moving mechanisms. Whether utilized for part repairs or the finishing touches of an integral component, the versatile capabilities of lapping machining can add significant value to the fundamentals of your parts.
To ensure precise control over material removal rates, our machine shop in Pottstown, PA uses advanced lapping machining processes that are powered by sophisticated programming, professional-grade lapping slurry, and top-tier lapping machining equipment that can produce uniform parallelism of less than .00005-inch. This unparalleled surface finish promotes:
