VI-BRO-LAPS
WEAR YOUR GOGGLES SAFETY FIRST
A UNIQUE DOUBLE ACTION WORKS FOR YOU
Both the 20" and 27" Vi-Bro-lap models give you the satisfaction of achieving flat surfaces on geode half's, agate, petrified wood and other material, yet relieves you of the necessity for constant attention to the lapping process.
The Vi-Pro-lap can accommodate a number of specimens at the same time. The tempered aluminum lap plate is grooved in a criss-cross pattern. This permits abrasive partials to circulate between the lap plate and the work piece so that the abrasive it self is continuously being crushed to a smaller size. This reduces the number the number of grit sizes which are needed.
When the work piece surface is ground flat and satin smooth, the lap plate is turned over to the other side on which a polishing pad is cemented. Using a polish compound on this pad, a fine mirror like finish is produced on the work piece.
SPECIFICATIONS
Lap plates are manufactured from heat treated material aluminum alloy to produce a tough, wear-resistant-surface. Each surface has a milled V-grooves in a square grid pattern.
Suspension is controlled by aircraft strength cable, adjustable for fine leveling to keep work pieces evenly distributed over the lap plate surface'
20VL measures 21"wide x 21" deep x 21" high
27"VL measures 28" wide x 28" deep x 30" high
Frame is welded, fabricated steel for stability.
Comes with 1/3 HP motor, polish pad and galvanized circle.

"VI-BRO-LAPS" IN "TWO SIZES
Both the 20" and 27" Vi-Bro-Lap models give you the satisfaction of achieving flat surfaces on geode halves, agate, petrified wood and other material, yet relieves you of the necessity for constant attention to the lapping process.
The Vi-Bro-Lap can accommodate a number of specimens at the same time. The tempered aluminum lap plate is grooved in a criss-cross pattern. This permits abrasive particles to circulate between the lap plate and the workpiece so that the abrasive itself is continuously being crushed to a smaller size.
When the workpiece surface is ground flat and satin smooth, the lap plate is turned over to the other side on which a premium grade, wool felt polishing pad is cemented. Using a polishing compound on this pad, a fine mirror like finish is produced on the workpiece.

While the Vi-Bro-Lap plate oscillates, work-piece rotates! This gives faster grinding surface speed; distributes abrasives, assures a flat polished surface, and equalizes wear on lap plate.
