Abstract
A system for conditioning a pad is provided. The system includes a pad conditioning media, a feed-roll containing a supply of the pad conditioning media, and a take-up roll for receiving an end of the pad conditioning media. Further included in the system is a pressure application member defined between the feed-roll and the take-up roll. The pressure application member is designed to apply pressure onto the pad conditioning media as the pad conditioning media is applied against the pad to cause a conditioning of a surface of the pad.
