We have started handling the optical material polishing polyurethane block "IC OPTIC Puck." IC OPTIC Puck is a urethane pad with a fine pore structure recommended for polishing flat and spherical optical materials. It can be used with high-speed CNC and spindle polishing equipment. Due to its ease of processing, it allows for reshaping into spherical forms and groove machining at the customer's location. It is recommended to use it with a low-viscosity dispersion type slurry. If you are having trouble polishing optical materials with sudden radii or other difficult shapes, please feel free to contact us.

On April 1, 2023, the Labor Safety and Health Regulations were revised, and the SiC (silicon carbide) abrasive particles contained in waterproof grinding paper were designated as "carcinogenic substances," requiring that work records and health examination results be preserved for 30 years. Additionally, protective gear such as goggles and gloves must be worn during work. Due to these requirements, an increasing number of users are considering alternatives to waterproof grinding paper containing SiC abrasive particles. Why not take this opportunity to switch to the diamond grinding pad "PLATO"?

A diamond grinding pad is a plate-shaped grinding tool that fixes diamond abrasives to a metal plate or urethane pad. It is used by attaching it to the polishing plate you are currently using. In recent years, it has gained attention as an alternative to free abrasives from the perspective of environmental impact and maintenance. In this collection of processing case studies we have created, we have summarized the applications and common challenges of the diamond grinding pad "PLATO" by processing work type, as well as the benefits of using PLATO.
