The lapping process of bigger workpieces is done on a 24E machine (lapping plate Ø 610 mm) and a 36E machine (lapping plate Ø 915 mm).

Different workpieces can be lapped such as (air-tight) seals, die casting moulds, high quality valves, motor and pump parts, flanges, components in car-, aviation- and medical industrie etc. Besides the well known steels, processing of materials such as ceramic, ferrite, hastelloy, stellite, inconel and composite materials is also possible.

  • Positive effect on lubrication and wear of parts
