Fine Grinding which is also known as Flat Honing or Fixed Abrasive Flat Lapping is a modern precision stock removal process that offers speeds up to 10 times faster than conventional lapping yet still provides similar flatness, parallelism, surface finish and size tolerances.  Applications which require moderate to high stock removal while maintaining close dimensional and surface finish requirements is where this process is at its best.






Fine grinding can accommodate almost any material such as:

• Metal – Tool Steels, Cast Iron, Aluminum, Carbon Steels, Tungsten Alloys, Sintered Metals.
• Ceramics- Alumina, Silicon Carbide, Silicon Nitride, Zirconia
• Plastics
• Glass

Some of the typical applications for Fine Grinding are:

• Ceramic roller bearing length grinding
• Carbide inserts
• Precision blades
• Seals – Metal or Ceramic
• Powdered metal parts
• Stamped and Fineblanked parts
• Sprayed metal coatings
• Hydraulic gear pump components
• Piston rings
