Lapping and polishing of precison parts
Although aimed at optical applications such as laser quality mirrors many of our customers need extremely accurate metal parts for their own uses. Nanometre flatness, arc second parallelism, and diamond polished surfaces are beyond conventional machining.
Semiconductor inspection equipment, lens moulds, precison mating surfaces for seals, alignment aids for scientific instruments, all use our precision lapped surfaces.
Over 20 years we have lapped and polished many different materials such as
Brass
Stainless Steel (many different grades)
Electrolytic Nickel
Electroless Nickel plating
Tungsten
Alumina Ceramics
Beryllium Copper
ARCAP alloy
Graphite
If you have a need for extreme precision please send us an enquiry. |
| Typical flatness acheived is 0.5 micron or better on lapped parts up to 270mm diameter.
Inteferometric test results can be provided with 0.05 microns accuracy
 
We welcome the challenge of developing process methods for lapping and polishing new materials. We have supplied parts for fibre optic connectors, medical implants, Formula 1 racing, nuclear installations, and the food industry. |
