Abstract: A method of abrading the surface of a workpiece is disclosed. The method includes providing a workpiece, an abrading apparatus with a backing pad configured to receive an abrading plate, an abrading plate attachable to the backing pad and a slurry including abrasive grains; attaching the abrading plate to the backing pad; providing the slurry including abrasive grains between the abrading plate and the surface of the workpiece; and operating the abrading apparatus to abrade the surface of the workpiece. Therein, the abrading plate includes a workpiece-facing layer, which workpiece-facing layer faces the surface of the workpiece and includes a metal or a polymer, and the abrasive grains have a hardness on the Mohs scale of greater than 5.

Abstract: A method for producing a groove pattern on a cylinder surface includes providing an abrasive module, including an abrasive mesh article and collector block, providing a patterning head, which including the abrasive module and pressing actuator, pressing the abrasive module against the cylinder surface by using the actuator, forming a plurality of grooves on the cylinder surface by causing relative motion between the abrasive module and cylinder surface, and drawing gas through the abrasive mesh article to collect particles released from the cylinder surface. The abrasive mesh article includes a plurality of abrasive grains bonded to a flexible mesh backing, defining openings. The collector block has a curved supporting surface defining openings. The abrasive mesh article is attached to the curved supporting surface by a releasable fastening system. The openings of the flexible mesh backing are in communication with the openings of the collector block via the releasable fastening system.

Abstract: A polishing pad for polishing a surface, material for a polishing pad and a method for manufacturing material for a polishing pad. A polishing pad has a backing layer and a polishing layer made of sheep wool fibres fixed onto a surface of the backing layer, wherein the polishing layer has loops made of sheep wool fibres.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a flexible grinding product comprises the steps: a) preparing an open cloth of knitted or woven fabric; b) applying a coating to one surface of the cloth, wherein the coated surface of the cloth has one or more flat portions; c) applying a grinding agent to the coated surface of the cloth. Further, a flexible grinding product has an open cloth, wherein a surface of the cloth is provided with a coating such that the coated surface has one or more flat areas which are at least partially provided with a grinding agent.
