There are many media options. It is not easy to select the right media. The wrong media can cause major problems such as media being stuck in a hole or damaging the part.
The 2000-Series machines were designed with higher production requirements in mind. 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.
Top/bottom machines process both top and base surfaces in one pass. Every inch of every piece is processed exactly the exact same across 100% of the machine width.
Barrel tumblers make sliding friction using rotary movement combined with abrasive, tumbling media. Imagine you are putting rocks in an old barrel and rolling it up a hill. As the parts slide on the media, or against each other part, deburring or polishing happens.
There are four options for working heads. Our machines can be customized with a range of rotating brushes and abrasive belts.
For removing significant burrs or blending lines caused by machining, centrifugal barrel-tumbling machines are well-suited. They are excellent in polishing, burnishing, and other applications. The centrifugal bar machines can work with a variety of organic and ceramic media, including corn-cob, to achieve any type of part finish, from extremely fine surface polishing to burr elimination.
We have clients who depend on our metalworking machines in a wide range of industries.
Centrifugal barrel finishing machines can perform each of these three types of work, also called steps. Depending on surface finishing specifications for your product, not all steps may be necessary. Your process might include a single step, two steps, or three steps.
One manufacturer of medical devices faced two challenges when it came to designing a citric solution for passivation. This prevented them from using a fully automated passivation process. To ensure quality control, the system must have data tracking. Semi-Automated [...]
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.
No matter how many steps you have, each step must be done separately. You cannot do polishing and deburring at the same time. Deburr first and then polish. If more than one step must be done, each step should be completed in ascending order of smoothness. Deburring first, then polishing last.
The GoCrease creasers, which are ideal for digital applications, allow documents printed on heavy and coated stock to crease before folding. This results in crisper folds that don't crack.
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.
These industry-proven finishing systems can be used with many types metals such as brass, aluminum, stainless steel and chrome. Because plastic is too soft for this process, this type of system will not deburr parts made of plastic.
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.
The law of attraction between positively and negatively charged particles underpins the finishing technique of applying a coating to a metal surface. The paint is usually positively charged, while the support to be painted is negatively charged because it is wired to a strong electric field.
Surface Finishing Machine has a metallic bowl that holds media, water, and finishing compounds.
