For centrifugal barrel finish, it is essential to use the correct tumbling medium. The wrong media, and especially the wrong geometry can increase the cycle time of parts. Processing time can be significantly slowed down by using cones and cylinders for tumbling media if they aren't needed.
Digital applications will love the GoCrease cresers. These creasers allow documents printed from heavy or coated stock to have their edges creased before being folded, creating crisper folds with no cracking
A centrifugal barrel tumbling machine works on the same principle as a Ferris-wheel, but has smaller baskets that are attached to the edges. The centrifugal finishing machine or harperizing systems has 4 barrels. Each one represents a seat in a Ferris wheel. One large flywheel is also included. Each revolution of this flywheel produces one complete rotation for each barrel. The flywheel rotates quickly and produces extremely high centrifugal pressures, up to 15 to 20 times greater than the force of gravity. Under high pressure, the contents slide against each other. The increased pressure allows fast processing of metal parts as well as consistent and smooth finishes.
Centrifugal barrel tumblers are a specialized form of barrel tumblers in which centrifugal force adds to the effects of barrel tumbling.

Mass finishing with a centrifugal barrel tumbler can be performed either wet or dry. Wet processes use a liquid lubricant, cleaner or abrasive, and dry processes do not. Each of the four barrels is loaded to roughly 50-80% of capacity with the following elements:

A grinding wheel is either a disc, or a cylinder used for cutting and abrasive machining .
Use of the correct tumbling media is crucial for centrifugal barrel finishing. The wrong media, particularly the wrong geometry, can double the cycle time for parts. Using cones or cylinders for tumbling media when not appropriate can slow down processing time significantly.
There are four options for working heads. Our machines can be customized with a range of rotating brushes and abrasive belts.
Built in a heavy duty construction with a smaller footprint designed to accommodate a job shop with various applications such as deburring, dross removal, calibrating/dimensioning, edge radiusing or finishing.
We will help you find the perfect machine for any metalworking job, regardless of whether your application requires small, lightweight systems to deburr smaller projects or larger, more robust models to perform multiple shifts and facilitate large-scale production.
Are you looking for high-quality dry metal machines? Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. has the best designs. We'll help find the right solution for you, depending on your specific requirements. We offer dry metal machines as well as a variety of wet machines, wood machines and wet dust collectors. Each machine is built from scratch based on the unique requirements of our customers, no matter how specific or demanding they may be.
These machines can remove large burrs and blend lines from machining. They can also be used for polishing or burnishing. Use them with organic media such as corn-cob or ceramic to achieve almost any finish.
Metal finishing aids in the reduction of wear and tear on metallic products. Aside from aesthetics, it has a wide range of industrial applications. It helps to improve electrical conductivity, torque resistance, and metal solderability, among other things.
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.
Surface Finishing Machine has a metallic bowl that holds media, water, and finishing compounds.
