Book Modern Methods for Mirror Polishing
The polishing book for practical use.
Who is this book for? First and foremost for practitioners who want to check their knowledge and are curious to see if there are any good ideas that can be used to optimise their daily work. But we are also thinking of foremen, plant managers and entrepreneurs who would like to shed some light on the dark secrets of polishing. We have received a lot of positive feedback from students and lecturers in recent years, as there has been virtually no detailed literature on the subject of polishing up to now.
What topics are covered? We worked on it for a whole year and put over 40 years of experience into it. The result is a very informative, clear and easy-to-understand workbook. Over 460 photos and illustrations show you in clear steps how to achieve the required polish quickly and easily.
These are the topics:
1. basics: types of polish, surface values, measuring methods.
2. workplace: the right equipment.
3. tools: from fibre files to diamond paste.
4 The practice: Presentation of generally applicable processing steps.
5. the mould: Step by step, you will see and learn how the surfaces (e.g. slots, webs, radii) of a mould are machined of a mould are processed.
6 Alternative methods: The right tools for success.
7. maintenance: A few steps to a repaired mould.
8 Aluminium: This material can also be machined to a brilliant finish.
