A centrifugal container tumbler works in a similar way to a Ferris Wheel, with smaller baskets placed on the edges. A centrifugal finishing device, also known as harperizing, has four barrels. Each of these barrels represents a place on a Ferris wheels and one large wheel. Each revolution on the flywheel results into one complete rotation each barrel. High centrifugal forces are generated by the flywheel, which is fast turning. These forces can generate up to 15 – 20 times the force and gravity of gravity. The contents will slide against each others under high pressure. The increased pressure allows faster processing of metal components and consistent results.

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.
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.
Mass finishing using a centrifugal tumbler barrel can be done wet or dry. Wet processes may use a liquid solvent, cleaner, or abrasive. Dry processes do not. Each barrel can be filled with approximately 50 to 80% of its capacity using the following elements:
Mass finishing is a set of manufacturing processes that applies surface finishing to large quantities of parts simultaneously. In mass finishing, loose metal parts are placed in a container, and the motion of the container creates friction on the metal surface. This friction results in a cutting action on the metal surface, which can vary from heavy grinding to fine polishing.
No matter how many steps your process has, each step must always be completed separately. Deburring and polishing cannot be done simultaneously. Instead, you should deburr first, and then polish. If more than 1 step is needed, the steps should be performed in ascending ordescending order of smoothness. For example, polishing first and deburring last.
As a general rule, darker media cuts more quickly than lighter ones. If the material is very dark, it is likely that it will be fast-cutting using a more aggressive tool. It is more likely that lighter media will be used for mildly abrasive finishing of mass.

Our dry metal machines can be used by industries such as woodworking, metalworking, and composites. They allow for more consistent and efficient finishing. In an effort to provide the best finish possible, we distribute our products throughout North America.
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.
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.
