Hand Scraping Craftmanship
Hand scraping is the process of using either a manually or motorized-driven scraping blade to remove very small amounts of metal from a precision surface to eliminate high spots left behind from the machining process.
Hand scraping is the process of using either a manually or motorized-driven scraping blade to remove very small amounts of metal from a precision surface to eliminate high spots left behind from the machining process. This provides a flat, accurate bearing surface onto which machine components can be mounted. By increasing the bearing contact area between the mating surfaces, joint rigidity is increased in the machine tool.
