A centrifugal barrel parts tumbler can eliminate 95% of the handwork involved in deburring or polishing parts by hand. This reduction of hand sorting dramatically increases production and return on investment. Using a centrifugal barrel finisher reduces the waste and expense of having to use a microscope to identify defects and remove burrs on each part to meet a customer’s requirement for metal smoothness.
Our dry machines allow for more efficient and uniform finishing in industries like woodworking, metalworking and other composites. We distribute our products to all North American industries, in an effort help them achieve the highest quality finish.
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.
Industry workhorses, centrifugal barrel finish systems can be used to finish many metals, such as brass and aluminum, stainless, chrome, and steel. Plastic parts are not deburred by this type system, as plastic is too malleable for this process.
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.
To create sliding friction in barrel tumblers, rotary motion is combined with abrasive tumble media. The idea is simple: put rocks in a barrel, then roll it down a hill. Deburring and polishing occur when the parts slide against other parts.
Our dry-metal machines are available to industries in metalworking, woodworking and plastics. It allows for more uniform and effective finishing processes. To help our customers achieve the best finish, we distribute our products across North America.
Our dry metal machines offer solutions for many applications such as grinding, graining/deburring/finishing, oxide removal, dimensioning/edge radiusing, dimensioning, dimensioning, and other processes. We offer either dry or wet machine configurations, depending on what materials are being processed. Due to the low levels of grit or coarse grit needed for grinding in environments with high temperatures, we recommend dry machines.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. is the most trusted dry metal machine manufacturer. Our customers can choose from a wide range of dry-metal machines to improve the safety, efficiency, and dependability of their metalworking operations.
Air between sheets is created by the AJ 700 air-feed paper jogger. It reduces jogging and helps eliminate static. This allows press sheets and digital copies of the paper to be dried quickly after printing. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. drills boast a 2-inch depth drilling capacity and movable, bearing-mounted tables for precise paper positioning. 5 pre-set patterns can be selected from the 25 or 55 tabletop models.
Are you looking for a matte or satin look? Aluminum oxide blasting media can also be used in your centrifugal bar finishing process. The result will be matte rather than shiny.
Tumbler Media is the abrasive for mass finishing. It grinds away burrs and lines on a metallic surface. There are many options for tumbler media.
The centrifugal barrel twister is a very special form of barrel torches. It uses centrifugal force to enhance the barrel tumbling effects.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. is a manufacturer of mass finishing products. This means that you not only get a machine, but also a package that will be hassle-free. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc.'s in-house manufacturing of mass finishing media and mass finishing equipment, as well as our trained service and application technicians, spare part and waste water recycling, and reline service make Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. mass final equipment a sustainable and comprehensive solution for customers.
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.
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 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.
