Two major problems faced by a medical device manufacturer when developing a citric-passivation solution was the manufacturing process. After cleaning the parts, the water-break test had to be performed before passivating. The manufacturer could not use fully automated passivation. For quality control purposes, the system needed data tracking. Semi-Automated [...]
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc., has been a leader in the field of surface finishing machines, including metal polishing, deburring equipment, metal parts cleaning, drying machines, and metal polishing. This has been going on for more than seven decades. We have the engineering and field knowledge to solve any problem you might be facing. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. allows you to choose between standard or custom-designed units for the best possible solution.
You have to choose between dry or wet metal machines when choosing a machine for finishing, deburring and other tasks. They use different methods to complete the same task. Wet machines spray a coolant mixture onto the surface of the parts while dry machines do not.
The 2000-Series machines were designed with higher production requirements in mind. They are designed to handle such applications as deburring, slag grinding, calibrating/dimensioning, edge radiusing, paint/surface preparation, finishing/polishing or a combination of these applications.
The AJ 700 air-feed paper jogger forces air between sheets to reduce jogging time and eliminate powder buildup and static. It also allows press sheets and digital copies to be dried immediately after printing to prevent offset. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. drills feature a deep, 2-inch drilling capacity and movable tables mounted on bearings for precise paper positioning. The 25 and 55 tabletop models feature 5 pre-set patterns which can be selected at the turn of a dial.
In a centrifugal barrel tumbling machine, the operator can adjust the speed of tumbling. This level of control allows for finer finishing and polishing at lower speeds, and aggressive deburring and edge smoothing at higher speeds.
One medical device manufacturer faced two major challenges when designing a citric passivation system. First, they had to perform a water-break test on the parts after cleaning them. Then, they had to proceed with passivation. They couldn't use an automated passivation system. Data tracking was required for quality control purposes. Semi-Automated [...]

Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. provides a variety of digital finishing solutions. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. can do all your digital finishing needs, from cutting, creasing, folding, and more. Aerocut digital finishing products are the best choice if you want to get up to single-pass cutting, creasing and scoring. These all-in-1 finishing systems will bring your digital production up to the next level.
The GoCrease creasers are perfect for digital applications. They allow documents printed on heavy or coated stock, to be folded before folding. This creates a crisper fold without cracking.
Flat parts making you feel confused? Flat parts, such as washers, present the greatest challenge for centrifugal bar finishing. These parts can stick to the barrel or wick together, so only one side of the barrel gets deburred. You can add glass beads blasting media to the centrifugal bar finishing process. The beads coat the parts, so they don't stick to each other and the barrel. Parts that tend to be coiled together can also use glass beads.
Finishes are applied at the end of a construction or manufacturing process to form the final surface of an element. They can protect the element they finish from impact, water, frost, corrosion, abrasion, and other elements, as well as be decorative.
Finishing operations, also known as finishing manufacturing, occur at the end of the manufacturing process, after the part has been formed and secondary processes have been completed.
Finishing processes can be used to improve the following characteristics: appearance, adhesion or wettability, solderability, corrosion resistance, tarnish resistance, chemical resistance, wear resistance, hardness, modify electrical conductivity, remove burrs and other surface flaws, and control surface friction.
