Orbital AFM Processes Demonstrations and Literature Other Surface Finishing Solutions Orbital AFM Equipment

In a matter of minutes, the Orbital AFM process produces a surface finish that is twenty to thirty times better than the original. Average surface roughness can be reduced to 0.01 micron (0.4 micro inch) Ra or better. Not only does this process produce surface finishes previously unattainable by conventional polishing methods—including hand polishing—but, it does it in one-quarter of the time and cost.

Wide Range of Materials
Orbital polishing is conducive to a broad range of materials, including tool steel, stainless steel, mild carbon steel, aluminum, carbide, and many others. It improves the surface quality of components manufactured by conventional machining, milling, drilling, EDM, casting, forging, or molding. Even the U.S. Mint in San Francisco relies on our Orbital AFM system to obtain an ultra-fine finish on its proof sets.
