"Vi-Bro-Laps"
Both the 20" & 27" Vi-Bro-Lap models give you the satisfaction of achieving flat surfaces on geode halves,
agate, petrified wood & other material, yet relieves you of the necessity for constant attention to the
lapping process. --Diamond Pacific
Free Lap grit and polish kit!
Features:
 |
Can accommodate a number of specimens at the same time |
|
|
Tempered aluminum lap plate is grooved in a cris-cross pattern, permitting abrasive particles to circulate between the lap plate and the work piece so that the abrasive itself is continuously being crushed into a smaller size--this reduces the number of different grit sizes which are needed |
|
|
Turn over the lap plate to the polishing pad side which is cemented on. Combined with polishing compound, a fine mirror-like finish is produced easily |
|
|
Lap plates are manufactured from heat-treated aluminum alloy to produce a tough, wear-resistant surface. Each surface has milled V-grooves in a square grid pattern. |
|
|
Suspension is controlled by aircraft strength cable, adjustable for fine leveling to keep work pieces evenly distributed over the lap plate surface. |

Double Deck Vibratory Lap
You can be rough grinding and finish polishing at the same time with this 18" double pan setup
COMES WITH FREE LAP GRIT AND POLISH KIT!
Use the top pan with its special pad for all polishing and the lower pan for the other
stages of grind and pre-polish. Brackets hold the two pans in place, one above the
other, and are designed for easy removal of the pans. Slabs rotate in a circular orbit
so there is little damage to any stone edge. Use a Lapmate (described below) and
you greatly reduce your lapping time. Machine is made of non-rusting aluminum castings.
Only weights 50 pounds so can be moved from place to place but is still heavy enough
for stability while in operation.
Double Deck Lap Model DL-18
The machine comes with frame, motor, two pans, polishing pad, set of brackets.

Grit Sequence for Lapping
The choice of abrasive grit sizes for the lapping process follows somewhat
that in tumbling or stone polishing procedures. The choice also depends upon
the material, and preference of the person doing the work. The following sequence
of silicon carbide grits is commonly used, and will generally produce a satisfactory
polish on most materials: 60/90, 220, 400, 600, 800+ and then a polish.
Generally, the more steps the better the polish. For more information on grits, click here: GRITS.
