No matter the number of steps involved, each step should be done independently. This means that you can't do deburring and polishing at the same moment. Instead, first deburr, then polish. If more than one step are needed, the steps must all be done in ascending ordinal order of smoothness.
Vibratory tumblers use side-to-side movements to shake a container or bowl in a circular fashion, similar to those used for rock polishing. Finishing occurs when the parts and media are rubbed against each another.
We are able to customize solutions for our customers in our in-house lab. This allows us the ability to develop a custom, innovative solution.
In ascending order of smoothness, there are three types of work an industrial tumbler machine does.
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.

The GoCrease criser is ideal for digital applications. It allows documents printed on heavy, coated stock to be folded prior to folding. This ensures crisper, cleaner folds without cracking
Machines in the 2000-Series are designed to handle heavier production demands. 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.
Polishing is usually a dry process with ground-up corncob used as media. The compound embedded in the polishing agent is included. Also, dry processing can be made with ground-up walnutshells.

A centrifugal barrel tumbler for parts can cut down on the amount of hand work involved in deburring and polishing by hand by 95%. This decrease in hand sorting greatly increases production, and the return on investment. A centrifugal barrel finishing machine reduces the amount of time and effort required to inspect each part and remove any imperfections.
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.
