According to data released by the American Manufacturing Technology Association, in May 2013, US metal processing machine tool exports totaled US$230 million, down 3.6% from the previous month; imports totaled US$480 million, up 2.6% from the previous month; and the trade deficit increased by 9.0% from the previous month.

Exports of gold cutting machine tools decreased by 15.2%, imports decreased by 0.8%; exports of forming machine tools increased by 27.9%, imports increased by 30.5%; exports of CNC machine tools decreased by 2.8%, imports decreased by 0.9%; exports of other manufacturing technologies increased by 8.8%, imports decreased by 0.8%. .


In the first five months, the US exported 1.11 billion US dollars of metal processing machine tools, up 9.5% year-on-year, and imported 2.27 billion US dollars, down 9.5%: export gold cutting machine tools increased by 9.5%, imports fell by 9.5%; forming machine tool exports fell by 3.4%, import growth 7.6%; CNC machine tool exports increased by 13.0%, imports fell by 14.3%; exports of other manufacturing technologies increased by 1.0%, and imports increased by 5.3%.

Since June 2012, the import demand for CNC machine tools has surpassed that of metalworking machine tools. Since November, the demand for CNC machine tools has been lower than that of metalworking machine tools. Since September, the import demand for other manufacturing technologies has been relatively large. Since December, it has been 5 consecutive. More than the import demand for metal processing machines and CNC machine tools.

Hans 6" and 8" Diamond Disc and Laps is the perfect tool for the commercial cutter or serious hobbyist. Diamond top plates just 1.0mm thickness is easy to apply to backing plates. All diamond top plates can come with PSA, Magnetic and Without Backing. Diamond discs are available in a wide range of mesh sizes for rough grinding and fine grinding of all precious gem material applications include performing rough and fine grinding on faceting material plus general lapidary grinding when precision is required. A controlled concentration of diamond bonded onto a precision backing plate ensures consistent grinding and surface finishes. Diamond discs can put on a precision ground.
10 inch to 24 inch Diamond Magnetic Disk was a very rough diamond used for heavy removal of glass from surfaces. It will create significant edge chipping that will need to be cleaned up with a rough to medium grit diamond disk. Disks are magnet backed for easy application and removal on lap grinder wheel heads.
Hans Diamond Pattern Disks are an Electroplated Diamond Disk with a controlled dispersion of diamonds on the surface in a pattern. In order to maintain the longevity of the diamond disk, the StarLap disks precisely place the diamonds on the disk instead of using a random dispersion like our own electroplated diamond disks. This gives a consistent grind on your glass by controlling the spacig between the diamonds and allows a slightly longer lifespan on the disk as the diamonds maintain more space between them and support the glass less.

Diamond Standard Faceting Laps
The standard is designed to exceed the most rigid requirements. The aluminum backs are ground flat and parallel to exacting standards. All standard discs are made with 100% diamond and bonded with a hard electroplated nickel. Comes with 1/2" arbor. Screwbacked discs also available.
Diamond Channel Faceting Laps
These discs have a uniquely shaped working surface of randomly interspersed islands. The resulting channels flush away debris and prevent the stone from pulling excessively on the lap. These are great for rough cutting facets and grinding cabochon backs. 
Diamond Rippled Faceting Laps
The rippled diamond laps have a textured surface that allows more contact of the diamond surface because the debris is whisked away through the channels. Each rippled diamond top plate is professionally bound to an aluminum master lap.
