Perforated Diamond Disc
The Hans Diamond Abrasive System utilizes a magnetic mounting approach for all grinding tasks using a singular head. To begin, affix the adhesive-backed, flexible magnetic holder onto the grinding head—no extra adhesive or shaft nuts needed. Once set, the grinding head is primed for diamond cutting discs. Position it onto the magnet, and it's ready for action.
Start with the coarse disc (100g) to swiftly eliminate substantial material. Transition to the medium disc (220g) for refining surface quality and preparing for finer grinding. The fine disc (600g) effectively eliminates the medium finish, priming the surface for pre-polishing.
For polishing, employ the Diamond Compound as either a pre-polish (8,000 mesh) or a final polish (ranging from 14,000 mesh to 50,000 mesh) on a polish plate. This comprehensive system offers a seamless transition between grinding stages and efficient polishing, ensuring a range of surface finishes for various applications.
System Overview:
Magnetic Mounting: The system employs a flexible magnetic holder with adhesive backing, eliminating the need for additional adhesive or shaft nuts. This holder attaches easily to the grinding head.
Preparation: Once the adhesive-backed magnetic holder is in place, the grinding head is ready to accommodate diamond cutting discs.
Grinding Steps:
Coarse Disc (100g): Use this disc to effectively remove significant amounts of material, initiating the grinding process.
Medium Disc (220g): Switch to the medium disc to refine the surface finish and prepare the piece for finer grinding stages.
Fine Disc (600g): This disc efficiently removes the medium finish, preparing the surface for the pre-polish stage.
Diamond Compound for Polishing:
Pre-Polish (8,000 mesh): Utilize the diamond compound as a pre-polish, enhancing the surface before the final polishing stages.
Final Polish (14,000 to 50,000 mesh): Depending on the desired finish, use varying mesh grades of the diamond compound on a polish plate for the final polishing.
Key Features and Advantages:
Simplified Operation: The magnetic mounting system eliminates the need for complex attachments, making the process more straightforward.
Versatile Grinding: The ability to switch between different diamond cutting discs allows for versatile grinding from coarse to fine finishes.
Efficient Polishing: The inclusion of diamond compounds with varying mesh grades facilitates efficient pre-polishing and final polishing stages.
This system's efficiency, versatility, and the range of grits offered by the diamond cutting discs and compounds make it suitable for various grinding and polishing applications in materials processing and finishing.

FAQ
Q: What is a flat lap used for?
This flat lap machine is a full-featured, vertically oriented machine best suited for fine grinding of gemstones. The lap machine is fitted with a high-torque, powerful 1440 RPM direct-drive motor of 1/4 H/P. It is suitable for heavy-duty grinding of all types of gemstones and rocks.
Q: What is the flat lapping process?
Lapping is an averaging process where the greatest material removal occurs where the high points of the surface of the part contact the flat lap plate. The object is to produce parts with a uniformly smooth and usually flat surface.
Q: What is the process of diamond lapping?
Diamond lapping is a material removal method using fixed diamond abrasive particles which produce long chips of the component material. The process of making chips with a sharp abrasive grain produces the lowest amount of deformation in the component while giving the highest removal rate.
Q: Can you cab on a flat lap?
If you'll be inserting your cabochon into a jewelry finding, you'll need to flatten the back side of the stone. Using a diamond lap, grind the back side of your stone until it's flat with either a flat lap machine or a cabbing machine that can attach a diamond lap, like our CabKing 8" shown below.
Q: Can you facet on a flat lap?
The Hans Lap is an easy to use, versatile faceting arm system that can be used with virtually any flat lap grinder to quickly and easily create detailed and precise facets on your glass or stone.
Q: What is a diamond lap?
Diamond laps are circular grinding discs manufactured from high-quality commercial-grade RVD diamond grits, which are electroplated uniformly and firmly.
Q: Can you cab on a flat lap?
If you'll be inserting your cabochon into a jewelry finding, you'll need to flatten the back side of the stone. Using a diamond lap, grind the back side of your stone until it's flat with either a flat lap machine or a cabbing machine that can attach a diamond lap, like our CabKing 8" shown below.
Q: How does the lapping process work?
The principle of lapping is based on the cutting power of either a free abrasive grain in a carrier or a fixed abrasive particle within a composite lapping plate matrix. The lapping plate on which a slurry medium is applied moves under the workpiece/job surface while the workpiece/job rotates on the lapping plate.
Q:Is lapping the same as grinding?
One of the main advantages of lapping over grinding is the ability to achieve a high degree of flatness and surface finish without introducing subsurface damage. Lapping removes only a small amount of material from the surface, resulting in a very fine finish with no micro-cracks or other defects.
Q: How long does it take to facet a diamond?
At first, you'll need six to eight hours. With practice, you'll only need an hour or two. Once you're familiar with your gemstone faceting machine, you can move on to other shapes. Soon, you'll be faceting like a professional.
