The regularities of the formation of the resulting raster tool trajectories based on Lissajous figures for the lapping process of planes are established. This makes it possible to maximize the cutting ability of the tool, which contributes to its more uniform wear and increased productivity and processing quality. Optimal parameters of productivity and roughness of the treated surface during lapping of zirconium ceramics are achieved through the use of ASM paste 28/20 µm. Based on Preston's hypothesis, an exponential dependence of the change in the contact area during the lapping of planes of different initial shape of the macrorelief is obtained. The obtained theoretical and practical results of the study of the process of flat lapping with constant and variable clamping force of the treated surface to the surface of the tool. The influence of the force factor on the formation of the surface in the process of abrasive lapping has been established. Studies have been carried out and the main technological recommendations of precision surface treatment of workpieces based on hard, brittle ceramic material and bronze samples on equipment with a raster trajectory of the tool movement are presented. The optimal pressure value when processing ceramics should be considered 203-270 kPa (2.1-2.8 kg/cm2).
