We can help you find the right machine for almost any metalworking process, no matter if your application calls for compact systems to handle smaller deburring tasks or more powerful models that can be used to support large-scale production.
Our in-house lab allows us to create custom solutions for our customers.
A variety of performance enhancing options are available for the FC 10. The corner stapler attachment is capable of stapling up to 10 sheets at a time. A heavy-duty base mounted on casters allows easy mobility. The FC 10 is certified by Underwriters Laboratories for the US and Canada.
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.
Regardless of the number of steps in your process, each step must be performed separately. In other words, you cannot perform deburring and polishing simultaneously. Instead, deburr first, then polish. If more than one step is required, the steps must be performed in ascending order of smoothness, with deburring first and polishing last.
We have the unique capability to custom design solutions for our customers within our in-house lab, enabling us to create a tailored, innovative solution.
Vibratory tumblers use a side-to-side movement to shake a bowl or tub in a circular path, similar to the rock polishing kits that many of us played with as children. The finishing occurs in a scrubbing action as the parts and media shear against each other.
Our in-house laboratory allows us to design custom solutions for customers, which allows us to provide a unique, creative solution.
Centrifugal barrel finishing systems are industry workhorses and are used with many types of metals, including brass, aluminum, steel, stainless steel, chrome, and titanium. Note that this type of system does not deburr plastic parts, because plastic is too pliable for this process.
Vibratory tumblers shake a bowl or tub by using a side to side motion. This is similar to rock polishing tools that many of our children used to play with. Finalizing occurs by rubbing the parts against one another.
We have clients that rely on our metalworking machinery in many industries including:
A centrifugal finishing machine can increase the consistency of quality. Handwork has a maximum acceptance rate of 80%, but a centrifugal bar finisher can deliver much higher acceptance rates. Additionally, the surface finish of a centrifugal barrel finisher is consistent in all directions. It is not like hand polishing.
A deburring machine can also help worker safety. It lowers the risk of repetitive motion injury, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, that is associated with polishing by hand. The use of a centrifugal barrel machines is more ergonomic than manual labor. Centrifugal tumblers can be slow and require manual loading. However, this is compensated for by the machine's speed.
One medical device manufacturer faced two major challenges when designing a citric passivation system. First, they had to perform a water-break test on the parts after cleaning them. Then, they had to proceed with passivation. They couldn't use an automated passivation system. Data tracking was required for quality control purposes. Semi-Automated [...]
Finishing operations, also known as finishing manufacturing, occur at the end of the manufacturing process, after the part has been formed and secondary processes have been completed.
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 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.
