Study on fixed abrasive lapping of diamond pellets

Effect of surface area ratio of pellets platen on fixed abrasive lapping characteristics

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the fixed abrasive lapping characteristics of diamond pellets (DP) and to propose the optimization method of the DP layout both experimentally and computationally. Here, in the optimization processing, we have examined for decreasing the deviation of the lapping distance. In this paper, the effects of surface area ratio of pellets platen on fixed abrasive lapping characteristics are discussed. As the results, the surface waviness decreases and lapping efficiency increases with increasing the surface area ratio.
