MAGIC LAP
The new
cutting and polishing lap
Patent pending No. 08/292,137
A revolutionary versatile lap
offering for the first time to the amateur
and to the professional cutter the capability to cut and polish on a
single
lap.
The lap consists of a basis divided in two sections. The outer lane
for cutting and the inner lane for polishing. The outer lane holds a
changeable
diamond coated ring for cutting while the inside lane is a height
adjustable
polishing lap. The leveling adjustment between the cutting ring and
polishing
is instantaneous and does not require any tools. The versatility of
this
lap is unlimited as in a matter of seconds both the diamond ring and
polishing
lap can be replaced by a coarser or finer setup. The cutting and
polishing
laps can be changed to any combination depending on the type of stone
being
cut.
What are the advantages of this
lap ?
- On the new lap, cutting and
polishing are done on the same plane, one can
get a very fast and accurate alignment between the cutting and
polishing
surface.
Practically, no alignment is needed !! - The result is a very fine
and flat polished surface.
- An increased production by eliminating all above
mentioned unnecessary
adjustments.
- Versatility, in changing fast from cutting one type
of a stone to
another
or from a very small size to a big one.
- For professional cutter, it means reducing the number
of stands by not
having any more cutting stands and polishing stands.
- Using the magic lap basis and by changing only the
cutting rings and
polishing
inserts in order to polish a required stone the cost of handling and
polishing
is reduced substantially.
The cutting rings can be obtained in different mesh sizes like the
regular cutting laps.
The inserts can be obtained with the various options of all Turbofan
polishing laps (like X3, A5, etc.)
The maintenance of the base, the cutting rings, the polishing inserts,
is to clean and dry thoroughly after every usage.
The height adjustment of the insert polishing lap is done
instantaneously
by turning slightly clockwise or anticlockwise up to the level of the
cutting
ring and tightening to the required height with the central screw (do
not
overtighten the screw).
Water is being used as a coolant for all
stones of all types.
Maximum speed recommended 1500 RPM.
