Abstract
A magnetic disk is rotated by a drive mechanism, and compressed air is jetted to the same positions on the two surfaces of the magnetic disk. An abrasive tape and a magnetic material surface of the magnetic disk are made to contact each other closely by compressed air, and the magnetic material surface of the magnetic disk is burnished by the abrasive tape.
Claims4
A method of burnishing a surface of a magnetic disk by use of an abrasive tape, which comprises the steps of:
- rotating said magnetic disk, jetting compressed air via opposed air nozzles to the same positions on the two surfaces of said magnetic disk, intervening said abrasive tape between one of said air nozzels and one of said surfaces of said magnetic disk, and closely contacting said abrasive tape with the magnetic material surface of said magnetic disk and thereby conducting the burnishing.
An apparatus for burnishing a surface of a magnetic disk, which comprises a drive mechanism for supporting and rotating a magnetic disk, air nozzles positioned on each surface side of said magnetic disk so that they oppose each other for jetting compressed air at said magnetic disk, and an abrasive tape intervening between one of said air nozzles and a magnetic material surface of said magnetic disk.
