What is Precision Surface Lapping?
Precision Surface Lapping is a controlled abrasion process that uses fine abrasive particles suspended in a lapping fluid to remove microscopic material from a workpiece. Unlike conventional grinding or polishing, lapping ensures:
- Exceptional flatness and parallelism
- Micron-level material removal
- Superior surface smoothness
- Improved dimensional control
- Reduced surface stress and defects
This makes lapping the preferred choice for high-precision engineering applications where consistency and reliability are essential.
Our Advanced Lapping Capabilities
We utilize state-of-the-art technology and proven methodologies to deliver superior results:
- Double-Sided Lapping Services
Ideal for achieving uniform thickness and parallelism on both sides of a component simultaneously. Commonly used for bearings, seals, and semiconductor substrates. - Single-Sided Lapping Services
Perfect for parts requiring a high-quality finish on one functional surface while preserving the opposite side. - CNC Lapping Services
Our automated CNC-controlled lapping systems ensure repeatability, precision, and efficiency for high-volume production runs. - High-Precision & Ultra-Precision Lapping
Designed for components requiring extreme tolerances and superior surface integrity. - Micron-Level Lapping
We achieve tight tolerances and controlled material removal measured in microns, ensuring top-tier performance. - Mirror Finish & Surface Finish Lapping
Delivers smooth, defect-free surfaces that enhance sealing performance, optical clarity, and friction reduction.
Lapping Fluids & Process Control
We use specialized lapping fluids to:
- Distribute abrasives evenly across the surface
- Reduce friction and heat generation
- Improve surface consistency
