Diamond Polishing Film

Diamond Polishing Film: The Ultimate Solution for Precision Polishing

Diamond polishing film is widely regarded as the most advanced abrasive material for achieving exceptionally smooth and precise finishes. With its unique properties, diamond abrasives provide the highest abrasion resistance and the ability to achieve mirror-like finishes across various applications. Available in grit sizes ranging from 0.1 µm to 100 µm, diamond polishing films cater to a wide variety of polishing processes, including fiber optics, metal components, and engine parts. In this guide, we will explore the benefits, applications, and detailed polishing processes for different industries.

Key Features of Diamond Polishing Film

1. Material:

   • Diamond polishing films are made with diamond abrasives, the hardest material known, ensuring that these films are ideal for achieving extremely fine finishes with minimal material removal.
   • These films feature diamond particles bonded onto a flexible polyester backing, providing consistent and uniform abrasive performance throughout the polishing cycle.

2. Grit Sizes Available:

   • Diamond polishing films come in various grit sizes, ranging from 0.1 µm to 100 µm. This wide range of grits makes them suitable for multi-stage polishing, from coarse material removal to the finest polishing finishes.

Applications of Diamond Polishing Film

Diamond polishing films are versatile and can be used in many industries to achieve high-quality finishes. Below are some of the most common applications:

1. Polishing Process for Fiber Optics

• Objective: Achieving smooth, uniform end-faces for fiber optic connectors is critical to minimizing insertion loss and return loss, ensuring reliable communication performance.

• Polishing Stages for Fiber Optics:

  1. Epoxy Removal (Coarse Polishing):
     • Grit Size: 15 µm - 30 µm
     • Purpose: Removes epoxy and other unwanted material, flattening the ferrule surface in preparation for finer polishing.
     • Film: Silicon carbide or aluminum oxide polishing films.
  2. Intermediate Polishing:
     • Grit Size: 3 µm - 9 µm
     • Purpose: Smooths the surface further, removing deep scratches, and improving the surface quality before final polishing.
     • Film: Silicon carbide or diamond polishing films.
  3. Final Polishing:
     • Grit Size: 0.1 µm - 1 µm
     • Purpose: Achieves a mirror-like finish on the connector end-face, ensuring smoothness and optical clarity for fiber optic connections.
     • Film: Diamond polishing film is ideal at this stage due to its fine abrasiveness and long lifespan.

• Result: Mirror-like finish with consistent geometry, ensuring the highest level of performance in fiber optic networks.

2. Polishing Process for Engine Parts

• Objective: Polishing engine parts requires the removal of surface imperfections, achieving smooth surfaces that can reduce friction, improve efficiency, and increase the longevity of the components.

• Polishing Stages for Engine Parts:

  1. Initial Rough Polishing:
     • Grit Size: 30 µm - 60 µm
     • Purpose: Quickly removes excess material, including casting marks and imperfections.
     • Film: Silicon carbide lapping films or aluminum oxide films.
  2. Intermediate Polishing:
     • Grit Size: 10 µm - 30 µm
     • Purpose: Further refines the surface, smoothing out the rough edges and improving the initial surface finish.
     • Film: Silicon carbide or diamond polishing films.
  3. Final Polishing:
     • Grit Size: 0.1 µm - 5 µm
     • Purpose: Provides the final smooth surface, improving the overall surface quality, reducing friction, and increasing the performance of engine parts.
     • Film: Diamond polishing film with grit sizes around 0.1 µm - 1 µm for a mirror finish.

• Result: A smooth, polished surface that enhances engine efficiency, reduces wear, and improves durability.

3. Polishing Process for Rollers

• Objective: Rollers used in manufacturing processes (such as in printing, coating, and metalworking) require smooth, polished surfaces to ensure consistent operation and reduce wear during production.

• Polishing Stages for Rollers:

  1. Initial Coarse Polishing:
     • Grit Size: 30 µm - 60 µm
     • Purpose: Removes larger imperfections, rust, or any material buildup on the roller surface.
     • Film: Silicon carbide or aluminum oxide films.
  2. Intermediate Polishing:
     • Grit Size: 10 µm - 30 µm
     • Purpose: Smoothens out deeper scratches and refines the roller surface.
     • Film: Diamond polishing film for superior results in smoothing out imperfections.
  3. Final Polishing:
     • Grit Size: 0.1 µm - 5 µm
     • Purpose: Achieves a mirror-like finish for smoother roller operation, reducing friction and extending the lifespan of rollers.
     • Film: Diamond polishing film for ultimate finish quality.

• Result: Smooth, even rollers with minimal friction, resulting in improved product quality and reduced wear during industrial processes.
