We have clients who rely on our metalworking machines across a range of industries, including the following:
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. offers a comprehensive, hassle-free package. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. mass-finishing equipment is a result of our in-house production and media design. We also have our own service and application technicians, spares, and waste water recycling. This makes it a viable and long-lasting option for our customers.
The correct tumbling media is critical for centrifugal bar finishing. The wrong media and particularly the wrong geometries can make it twice as long to finish a part. When appropriate, cones or cylindricals are used for tumbling media. This can dramatically slow down processing times.
Top/bottom machine processes top and bottom in one pass, with 100% uniformity. Every square inch of any part is processed the same way over 100% of the machine's width.
Flummoxed by flat parts? Flat parts such as washers present one of the toughest challenges for centrifugal barrel finishing. The parts tend to wick together or stick to the side of the barrel, so only one side gets deburred. The solution is to add glass bead blasting media to the centrifugal barrel finishing process. The beads coat the parts so they can no longer stick to the barrel or each other. Glass beads also work well for parts that tend to cup together.
Our machines support as many as four working heads, with the ability to customize them with a variety of rotating brushes, abrasive belts, and oscillating disks based on your application’s unique needs.
Our in-house laboratory allows us to design custom solutions for customers, which allows us to provide a unique, creative solution.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. bookletmakers, and finishing systems are known for speed and versatility. Our Sprint series models have an excellent reputation in the industry for reliability and performance. The SF2 bookletmaker features wire-fed stitching technology which was only possible in larger systems up to three times the price.
These machines are suitable for seven-day-perweek and multiple shift operations. The machines were designed with heavy production requirements in mind. They can be used to fulfill large production needs such as deburring and slag grinding, edges radiusing, paint/surface prep, finishing/polishing, or any combination thereof.
The industry's most reliable finishing system, the centrifugal barrel finishing system, is used with many metals including brass, aluminum and steel as well as stainless steel, chrome and titanium. This system cannot deburr plastic parts because it is too flexible for plastic.
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 detergent is essential. While you may think the cleaning compound was meant for the metal parts of the tumble media, it is actually necessary for its use. The cleaning compound helps keep pores open in the tumbling medium by providing lubricity. If the pores of the tumbling medium become glazed, cutting will cease to work. The metal parts will become black. The soap was not used to make the parts black.
Each of these types of work can be done by centrifugal barrel finish machines, also known as steps. Some steps might not be required, depending on your product's specifications. A process could include one step, two or three steps depending on the surface finishing specifications.

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 mortars and concretes; natural and artificial masonry materials; decorative ceramics; materials and items made of wood, paper, glass, plastic, and metals; and paints and varnishes are the most common finishing materials used in modern construction.
