PROCESS PRIORITIES

Protect the result before selecting the consumable.

Stock removal before final polish
Edge and facet control
Abrasive/plate compatibility

ENGINEERING ROUTE

A connected path from definition to validation.

Define crystal, geometry and starting state
Separate grinding, lapping and polishing
Select contact tool and diamond media
Measure surface and geometry by stage

FIRST REVIEW INPUTS

Useful information for a focused response.

Single-crystal, polycrystalline or CVD
Face, edge or bevel geometry
Machine and plate
Starting and target surface condition

APPLICATION MATCHING

Four evidence groups keep the recommendation grounded.

Incoming state

Material grade, dimensions, orientation, existing damage and current process evidence

Machine system

Single- or double-side layout, plate size, motion, pressure, liquid delivery and existing tooling

Contact system

Carrier pocket, holding method, pad or plate, edge protection and release behaviour

Target result

Removal, thickness, TTV, flatness, finish, contamination, yield and inspection method

PROCESS DEVELOPMENT

Connect material removal, surface protection and production control.

The selected carrier, pad or plate and chemistry must be reviewed as one working interface. Trial data then defines the acceptance and repeat-supply baseline.

Removal route: Stock removal, abrasive family, delivery method and transition from lapping to polishing
Surface protection: Scratch, edge chipping, contact marks, stains, subsurface damage and controlled release
Chemistry: pH, abrasive type and size, compatibility, filtration, cleaning and contamination control
Repeatability: Inspection points, consumable life, lot traceability, approved change and replenishment planning

APPLICATION REVIEW FAQ

Keep the first technical discussion focused.

Can a route be reviewed from a failed trial?+

Yes. Current defects, wear, removal data, used consumables and inspection evidence often make the constraints clearer than a blank specification.

Are material and slurry considered together?+

Yes. Contact material, carrier or plate structure, abrasive, pH, liquid transport and cleaning are reviewed as one process interface.

When is a recommendation final?+

Only after the drawing or selected specification, first-article measurement and application validation have been agreed. Public examples are guidance, not a universal guarantee.

WORKPIECE & PROCESS FIT

Diamond and superhard component finishing

Single-crystal and CVD diamond components, PCD and CBN workpieces.

What to specify: Material structure, face orientation, binder if present, geometry and grinding-to-polishing sequence.
Made-to-order consumables: Carrier geometry and material, plate grooves, pad contact properties, conditioning, cleaning and polishing media are reviewed for the actual process. Drawing review and first-article support establish the repeat-order specification.
