Material Finish Machine Dishwasher

In a centrifugal tumbling machine, an operator can control the speed of the tumbling. This control allows finer finishing and polishing at lower speeds as well as aggressive deburring, edge smoothing, and edge grinding at higher speeds.

For polishing large amounts of metal, the fastest and most cost effective method is to use a centrifugal barrel-tumbling machine. Also known as an industrial tumbler or rotary tumbler system, a centrifugal finishing machine uses the cyclical sliding action of a rotating barrel to grind the metal surface. Centrifugal barrel finishes are a form of mass finishing.

Are you confused by flat parts? For centrifugal barrel finishing, flat parts like washers are a challenge. Because the parts stick to the barrel's side, they can wick together and stick to it. Only one side is deburred. Glass bead blasting media can be added to the centrifugal barrel finish process. The beads cover the parts and make them unable to stick to each other or the barrel. For parts that are prone to cup together, glass beads work well.

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.

No matter what your application is, we can help you find the right machine to fit almost any metalworking task.

The three types of work that centrifugal barrel-finishing machines can do are known as steps. You may not need to perform all the steps depending on the surface finish requirements of your product. There may be one step, two steps or three steps in your process.
