The centrifugal barrel finishing machine is a versatile tool that is used in a wide variety of industries for metal finishing.
Our dry metal machines can be used by industries such as woodworking, metalworking, and composites. They allow for more consistent and efficient finishing. In an effort to provide the best finish possible, we distribute our products throughout North America.
It is vital to use the correct tumble media for centrifugal finishing. The wrong media, especially with the wrong geometry, can significantly increase the time it takes to complete a cycle. The use of cones or rings for tumbling media can reduce processing time by a significant amount.
The dry metal machine selection offers solutions for a range of applications including finishing, grinding, finishing, oxide elimination, dimensioning and edge radiusing. We offer both dry and moist metal machines depending on the material being processed. Dry machines are better for grinding as they can use less grit and coarser grind in areas where temperature is not a concern.

Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. offers digital finishing solutions for everything from cutting to creasing and folding. The Aerocut digital finishing solutions range is perfect for those who want to go beyond single-pass slitting and cutting. These all-in one finishing systems will elevate your digital production to a new level.
A grinding wheel is either a disc, or a cylinder used for cutting and abrasive machining .
To create sliding friction, barrel tumblers combine rotary motion with abrasive media. You can imagine putting rocks in a barrel and then rolling it downhill. As the parts slide against each other, the deburring and polishing takes place.
The two main options for metalworking machines that can finish and deburr are wet and dry. These machines accomplish the same thing using different methods. Wet machines spread a coolant mix on the surface of the processed parts. Dry machines operate without this mix.
It is a rule of thumb that the darker media the better it cuts. Plastic media that is very dark will be faster-cutted with a more aggressive product. A lighter color media is more likely be mildly cut for mass finishing with mildly abrasive abrasives.
The AJ 700 jogger with air-feed paper allows for air to be forced between sheets. This reduces jogging time, eliminates static and powder buildup. This allows digital copies as well as press sheets to be dried immediately following printing to prevent offset. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. drills offer a 2-inch drilling depth and movable table mounts on bearings for precise paper positioning. 5 preset patterns are included in the 25- and 55-inch tabletop models. They can be accessed by turning a dial.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. tabletop folders offer the perfect combination of speed, precision, and ease of use, making them ideally suited for small offices, schools, and corporate environments. Automatic programmable models store fold programs in memory and can be set up to run at the touch of a button.
Our in-house lab gives us the ability to create unique solutions for our clients.
Polishing is typically a dry process that uses ground-up corn cob media with embedded polishing compound. Dry processing can also be done with ground-up walnut shells.
Vibratory tumblers shake a bowl or tub by using a side to side motion. This is similar to rock polishing tools that many of our children used to play with. Finalizing occurs by rubbing the parts against one another.
The Inovatec Automatic Surface Finishing Machine has a PLC control system that allows you to control the entire surface finishing process. It is a completely automated and labor-saving solution. Suitable for deburring and polishing a large batch of small parts at once.
Metal finishing is the process of altering an object's surface in order to improve its appearance and/or durability. Metal finishing is related to electroplating, which is the electrodeposition of a thin surface coating of metal onto another.
Surface Finishing Machine has a metallic bowl that holds media, water, and finishing compounds.
