Centrifugal barrel tumblers, a special type of barrel tumbler, adds to barrel tumbling's effects by using centrifugal force.

The principle of a centrifugal barrel tumbler is similar to that of a Ferris wheel. Smaller baskets are mounted along the edges and sides of large wheels. The centrifugal finishing system or harperizing machine has four barrels. Each barrel represents a seat on a Ferris Wheel and one large flywheel. Each revolution of the flywheel causes one barrel to turn. The flywheel's speed generates high centrifugal forces that can exceed 15 to 20 times the force gravity. This causes the contents to slide against one another under high pressure. The increased pressure allows metal parts to be processed quickly and can also ensure consistent, smooth finishes.

The polishing step is usually done dry using ground-up corncob as media and embedded polishing compound. For dry processing, ground-up walnut shells can be used.
