Description
The Logitech DL1 precision lapping and polishing system allows samples up to 200mm/8” Ø (or multiple smaller samples) to be processed with high geometric accuracy, while the driven jig polishing functionality can process samples at a high speed - safe in the knowledge that the back thinning or delayering geometrics will remain true to the original specification.
The DL1 is a versatile machine capable of both lapping and polishing samples up to 200mm / 8” Ø. Its lapping functionality is based on Logitech’s tried and tested precision lapping and polishing jigs, which allow for a high level of geometric control while being able to remove material quickly and efficiently.
The lapping carrier is motor driven which ensures consistent sample rotation during processing. This results in high sample quality as the plate and abrasive slurries remove the material evenly. Once the material thickness has been reduced to the required specification, the system can be switched to a polishing confi guration, where up to 8Kg can be brought to bear on the sample to process it to the final surface requirements.
In it’s primary configuration as a lapping system, the DL1 utilises an integral abrasive feed system to supply slurries directly to the processing area. Furthermore, chemical based polishing processes are also catered for, as all parts and components are sodium hypochlorite resistant. To ensure the correct mix of polishing fl uid is supplied, the DL1 incorporates a magnetic stirrer to ensure NaOCl based slurries are kept in constant suspension, while an internal peristaltic pump delivers this slurry to the processing pad.
The DL1’s advanced user interface, accessed via a 10.4” LCD touch screen running the industry standard NI Labview software, has been designed to provide as much flexibility as possible. Graphical representation of key parameters displayed during processing offers improved monitoring and real-time analysis. To facilitate extra control, the system supports manual and
automatic modes.
The manual mode provides access to individual process variables, thereby allowing operators to have extremely close control over process parameters. The automatic mode, on the other hand, allows for complex ‘daisy chain’ recipes to be created and stored in memory. This provides the operator with the ability to build a recipe library, automate the lapping and/or polishing process and free up time to work on other tasks, safe in the knowledge that the samples will be polished to the required specification.
