Diamond-abrasive fixed-pad for efficient lapping, TOPX™
Productivity improvement by stable removal rate.
Features
- Stable removal rates by original pad structure.
- Reduction of the removal machining time by fixed abrasive method.
- Reduce treating cost of waste liquid and the load for environment compared to the loose abrasive method.
- Reduction of the pad exchanging frequency by long product life.
- Flexibility in the design for each requirements of lapping object, lapping time, and surface roughness
