For stranded conductors larger than 0.0225 [square inches] (7/0.064) it is common practice to apply the rubber insulating-tapes on lapping machines which are fitted with a number of heads provided with revolving spindles on which the rolls of rubber tape are positioned. As the stranded conductor passes through the lapping machine, the revolving heads lap the rubber tapes spirally around the conductor .... 1, record 3, English, - lapping%20machine

Lapping and polishing machines are used in microelectronics work for grinding and polishing such products as semiconductor blanks in order to obtain precise thicknesses or extremely smooth, flat, polished surfaces. The machines are designed for maximum resistance to corrosion and ease of cleaning. Some are fitted with hoods to reduce atmospheric contamination of the plate and sample during polishing. Lapping and polishing machines can be DC electric motor driven for variable lapping plate speed. Some units are capable of a speed range of 0 to 70 rpm. 1, record 4, English, - lapping%20and%20polishing%20machine
