  2. Rice polisher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rice_polisher

    In Japanese farming communities, there is often a shared rice polishing machine. The first fully automated rice polishing machine is believed to have been patented by the English engineer and inventor Sampson Moore in 1861. [4] In the 20th century, kitchen appliances for consumers were created that allowed individual cooks to polish rice in ...

  3. Polishing (metalworking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polishing_(metalworking)

    A no. 8 ("mirror") finish requires polishing and buffing compounds, and polishing wheels attached to high speed polishing machines or electric drills. Lubricants like wax and kerosene [ 4 ] may be used as lubricating and cooling media during these operations, although some polishing materials are specifically designed to be used "dry."

  4. Electropolishing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electropolishing

    Electropolishing, also known as electrochemical polishing, anodic polishing, or electrolytic polishing (especially in the metallography field), is an electrochemical process that removes material from a metallic workpiece, reducing the surface roughness by levelling micro-peaks and valleys, improving the surface finish.

  7. Laser polishing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_polishing

    Laser polishing, also referred to as laser re-melting, is a type of micro-melting process employed for improving surface quality of materials.As opposed to other conventional polishing processes, this process does not involve removal of materials from the workpiece surface.

  8. Chemical-mechanical polishing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical-mechanical_polishing

    Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) (also called chemical mechanical planarization) is a process of smoothing surfaces with the combination of chemical and mechanical forces. It can be thought of as a hybrid of chemical etching and free abrasive polishing. [ 1 ]

  9. Floor scrubber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_scrubber

    When floor scrubbing machines became more available to many types of facilities, there was a need to cover a different type of flooring. Floor buffers or rotary floor machines use rotary brushes of a soft material to clean, scrub, and polish linoleum surfaces. For marble and wood floors, floor polishers may be used to apply protective coating ...
