Okamoto CNC Double-Sided Lapping Machine DLS-1200 from Japan
Numerically controlled double-sided lapping system for simultaneous finishing of both wafer surfaces to nanometer flatness. Specifically used in semiconductor wafer preparation after slicing to meet strict dimensional tolerances. Falls under HTS 8460.40.40.60 as other numerically controlled lapping machines for metal surfaces.
