Introduction to Flat-Lapping
Ref: IntroLap


Flat lapping is the term given to the process of grinding and polishing a flat surface onto a piece of stone.
The faceting machines, can be used for small flat surfaces but anything larger, such as bookends requires a special machine.
Two types are available; Rotary & Vibratory. We are only listing the most popular vibratory machines here.
Vibratory machines contain an electric motor, thrown off balance by eccentric weights, the movement of which is countered by torsion bars or radial coil springs.
If a good smooth finish is present on the stone (such as that achieved by a, power feed, diamond saw) then it is possible to grind from 400 grit and polish within a few hours using these units.
