A method for creating and maintaining a substantially perfect figure eight polishing pattern for polishing fiber optic connectors and similarly configured industrial components. The method is capable of simultaneously performing this figure eight polishing pattern on the multiplicity of such connectors and components. Moreover, the specific embodiment disclosed includes a computer program that controls the method. By simultaneously polishing a minimum of forty-eight fiber optic connectors, or similarly configured industrial components, with a polish being better than any now capable of being obtained by the prior art, this invention enables the output of polished fiber optic connectors and similarly configured industrial components to be increased three to four fold over currently employed polishing method while significantly reducing the cost of such polishing. |
