SuperMirror PV, for specular surfaces

The IMEAS SuperMirror™ machine model PV is used to polish sheets and plates of stainless metals up to a mirror, through a process called "Super No.8" which is characterized by:

  • homogeneous and non-directional surface finish
  • high reflectivity (>80° Gloss)
  • low roughness (Ra<0,05 micron).

The process is carried out by means of a suitable activated solution distributed on the surface to be treated through special rotating buffing "pads". A filtration system (optional) recovers the polishing compound and filters it from the metal particles removed during the process then the clean liquid is resent to the machine. A washing and drying unit (optional) allows preparing the surface of the sheet for further coating with protective film.

This machines is designed in "Gantry style" and features a fixed table and a mobile head that holds the vertical spindles and the relevant motors. The SuperMirror™ PV is available in several dimensions and spindle arrangement and fits particularly well for big plates, such as press-plates.

A special version designed to recover and recondition of press-plates, as well as to mirror-finish them is also available.

Key features of the IMEAS SuperMirror PV include:

  • Stainless steel-made frame and core machine components
  • Electronic and manual adjustment of the working thickness
  • Adjustable feeding speed
  • Adjustable amplitude and frequency of the oscillation system
  • Selection of the number of spindles to be used, to fit the actual working width
  • Adjustable flow rate on each spindle
  • Adjustable spindles working pressure
  • Programmable number of passages
  • Memory for pre-setting of working parameters
  • Wide screen with touch panel graphical user interface
  • Manual/Atomatic modes
  • Long-life grease lubricated bearings for minimal maintenance
  • Integrated safety systems

The following are the key technical data for typical configurations. Other configurations are available on request.
