New Cd & Dvd Mould Polishing Service Introduced By Hoyleline

March 7, 2008 - PRLog -- (Toronto) -- Hoyleline Injection Mould Polishing is pleased to announce its new CD and DVD optical mould polishing service for Canadian manufacturers in the multi-media industry.  "We believe we are the only company offering this extremely specialized service in Canada," says founder Jeff Hoyle, "as most CD and DVD replicating companies ship their mould inserts outside the country today."



Lapping is a precision process or combination of processes used to provide flatness, parallelism, size and surface finishes to extremely demanding tolerances.  The process is a manufacturing method that employs particles of an abrasive material to remove stock from a surface.  It is comparable to sanding or grinding, except that sanding and grinding use abrasives that are fixed (bonded abrasives), whereas lapping employs abrasives, which are suspended in a liquid carrier, and freely move about.



"Four things are a must for a DVD insert," Hoyle explains.  "Texture, flatness, parallelism and surface finish."  Hoyleline optical flat-lapping offers extreme flatness and defect-free surfaces.  Optical flats along with a monochromatic light are used to measure flatness of moulds in light bands, accurate to millionths of an inch.  Hoyle has over 12 years experience professionally lapping optical finishes on CD, DVD and Petri dish mould inserts for the multi media and mould making industries.  



"Our machines are capable of achieving 0-3 light bands of flatness, well within industry standards.  No 'orange peel' and no 'edge roll-off'," he concludes.  "Perfect for the finishing of CD, DVD, Petri dish moulds and many other applications.  This new service is greatly reducing turn-around time for our clients, and saving them money without the need to ship out side the country."
