Engis has launched the new Hyprez FL FastLap range of floor-standing lapping and polishing machines, designed to process a wide range of advanced materials with speed and flexibility, providing increased per-piece finishing cost efficiencies.


The new FastLap range is the latest development in Engis' total systems strategy for tackling the most challenging lapping and polishing applications. This holistic approach includes the design and manufacture of a vast selection of polishes and polishing mediums, from micron and sub-micron diamond polishes, to more conventional and chemical products.
The new machines are available with four different lapping plate diameters: 24", 28", 36" and 42", all of which are equipped with touch-screen digital controls, giving operators a range of pressure and speed settings from 0 - 1,500 lbs and 90 rpm respectively.

Standard features include a 'soft start' ramp-up to protect parts during start up, as well as a corrosion-resistant worktable, chrome pressure plates and a splash/protective enclosure system. With a fully adjustable work table, variable speed drive, pendent style operator control panel, independent tapered bearing support for the drive wheel and 3 roller yoke Ring Arms with single lever adjustment for both inboard and outboard positioning, the FastLap machines provide operators with optimal speed and control.
Additional machine options include a water cooling system, an integrated slurry dispensing system, an abrasive slurry reservoir and a lap plate flatness gauge. In addition, Engis offers fully customised solutions to suit any specific requirements.
