The syncroshaft drive system
accurately synchronizes the rotation of all three carrier rings, ensuring
consistent flatness and finish between all work stations. |
One of Plano Pro's greatest features is the patented
syncroshaft carrier
ring drive system which utilizes the rotating motion of the polishing
table to drive the workstation carriers. The design is extremely
straightforward and dependable, eliminating the cumbersome controls,
wiring and motors that commonly fail on conventional carrier drive
systems. The syncroshaft system is designed to be virtually
maintenance free. |
|
Because of the Plano Pro's unique workstation design,
there is no vertical obstruction over the carrier rings, allowing work of any
height to be polished. Each carrier ring position is adjusted by a
threaded scissor assembly which allows quick and easy carrier movement
without reaching over the polishing table. This feature greatly
reduces the possibility of contaminating the polishing surface or slurry
solution. |

Each work station accepts
carrier rings
ranging from 12-23 in diameter. Carrier
ring positions are quickly and easily adjusted
by simply turning a handwheel. |
