GMT BELT GRINDING MACHINE

GMT is among the leading belt grinder manufacturer in India. Belt Grinding Machines achieve rates of high production efficiency, quality finish and economy never realized in any other method of grinding or polishing. For example, by changing grit sizes, a machine may be converted from a heavy duty grinder to a fine micro-polisher.
Belt grinding machines can be adopted for semi-automatic or fully automatic working. Further, in most applications, belt grinding imposes less strain on the workpiece when compared to other forms of grinding, cracking, burning etc, do not occur.

Classification of Belt Grinding Machines
Abrasive belt grinding machines are usually classified by the surface that forms the backup of the coated abrasive at the work area. This backup has an important effect on the material removal rate and on the finish. The backup governs choice of contact pressure, the angle of cut and the speed of operation.

Belt Grinding Machines may be broadly classified according to the backups used as :
  1. Platen Grinding Machines:
  2. Contact Wheel Grinding Machines
  3. Free Belt Grinding Machines
  4. Centreless Grinding Machines
In construction, all the machines are similar. A coated abrasive belt runs over two pulleys - one driving pulley one idler pulley. There is (a) provision to prevent the belt from 'walking' or 'running' off the pulleys.

Accuracy, applications and features of GMT Planetary Lapping Machines

Accuracy:
planetary lapping machine
Planetary Lapping Machine
lap plate
Lap plate with work carriers
Optical flat
One light band to two light band over 75Ø component. (i.e. 0.3µ to 0.6µ over 75mmØ).
Surface finish : 0.2µ Ra.
Parallelism : 0.002mm over 75mmØ.
Applications :
These machines can be very sucessfully used in:
Electronic industries for lapping silicon wafers, germanium wafers, ferrite and piezo electric ceramics.
Pump industries for lapping mechanical seals made of tungsten carbide and ceramics.
Air compressor industries for lapping compressor valve plates.
Automotive industries for lapping thrust washers and distance pieces used in power steering.
Features :
The machine is constructed on a rigid welded hollow section steel frame, which houses a AC motor offered with variable frequency drive and a worm and worm wheel reduction gear unit.
The central gear, internal ring gear and work carriers are driven a AC motor.
The drive from the AC motor is taken through a worm and worm wheel reduction unit and then goes centrally through the main spindle to the central gear to the internal ring gear, through the work carriers.
The drive from reduction gear unit is through a unidirectional clutch arrangement. This arrangement ensures a smooth motion when the machine is started. This feature also eliminates breakage of fragile components like silicon and germanium wafers while starting and stopping the machine.
Both the lap plates are stationary. The differential motion given to the work carrier results in a random figure of '8' motion. This ensures that the component comes in contact over the entire area of the lap plate in so far as is feasible in line with the geometry of the component.
A special camel back straight edge permits rapid and accurate assessment of the flatness of the lap plates.
A set of special cast iron lapping gears are supplied with the machine for relapping the top and bottom lap plates.
An independent slurry pump feeds the mixture of abrasive and oil to an abrasive feed assembly.It is then distributed through a spider to the working face by means of strategically located holes. A separate stirrer motor is attached with the pump to continuously stir the abrasive with oil.
The main spindle bearings are sealed against ingress of the abrasive slurry. The used slurry is carried away by a suitable arrangement and is collected in a removable tank.

ADVANTAGES OF GMT PLANETARY LAPPING MACHINE


GMT Flat Lapping Machines

GMT Planetary Lapping Machines can lap both sides of a work piece simultaneously. As a consequence work pieces are processed efficiently without manual interruption to get improved parallelism and acts as an surface finishing machine. This double sided lapping machine is an ideal lapping tool for lapping silicon wafers and germanium wafers. 


GMT planetary lapping machines finds application in electronics, quartz, ceramics, semiconductor, surgical instruments and optical industries 


Workpieces to be lapped are placed inside the work carriers. The work carriers are gear cut on the outer diameter and recessed to hold the component inside. Abrasive fluid is fed onto the lap plates continuously. 


The planetary lapping machines are ideally suited to lap thin, fragile materials like silicon and germanium wafers extensively used in electronic industries. Other materials made of tungsten, ceramics, steel, bronze, carbon, aluminum, cast iron, plastics, stainless steel, stellite, ferrite and alumina can also be lapped on these machines.

Advantages of lapping

What is lapping?
Lapping is the first mechanical precision finishing  operation in done to achieve high dimensional accuracy. It helps you achieve positive sealing by obtaining high degree of flatness and surface finish. The advantages of lapping for obtaining fine flatness and surface finish have long been recognised by production and design engineers.
Advantages:
lapping_machines
A wide variety of materials can be lapped.
Flatness to one light band (0.0003 mm) on 100 dia.
Surface finish to less than 0.2 µRA.

Some reasons why lapping machines help to transform a costly, rarely used, hand operation to a fine accuracy, economical process:-
Parts of different shapes, thickness and material can be lapped.GMT has supplied lapping machines to lap various metals, plastics, glass, ceramic and granite. conditioning ring
Because the lap plate continuously maintains its flatness, production is not interrupted.
Appropriately selected diameters of the conditioning rings result in optimum lapping area.
Lapping cycles are controlled by an automatic and adjustable digital display times.
