Popis: A general mathematical solution to the problem of producing uniform abrasion over a plane area of a specimen from every azimuthal direction was worked out. This solution requires that the abradant and the specimen rotate in the same direction and with the same angular velocity. The specimen may revolve about the center of the abradant with any angular velocity in the same direction as or in the opposite direction from its direction of rotation. The specimen must not extend beyond the boundary of the abradant. Simple revolution of abradant about specimen and of specimen about abradant without rotation of either are special solutions. The special solution in which the specimen does not revolve about the center of the abradant is the simplest one from mechanical considerations. A machine based upon this special solution is described and pre liminary results obtained with it are discussed.
