Material Finishing Machines Xilinx

The 2000-Series machine series is designed for heavier production. 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.

As a general rule, the darker the media, the faster it cuts. For example, if plastic media is very dark, it’s likely to be fast-cutting with a more aggressive abrasive. Lighter-colored media is more likely to be mild cutting for mildly abrasive mass finishing.

Grinding

Two major problems faced by a medical device manufacturer when developing a citric-passivation solution was the manufacturing process. After cleaning the parts, the water-break test had to be performed before passivating. The manufacturer could not use fully automated passivation. For quality control purposes, the system needed data tracking. Semi-Automated [...]

These machines can remove large burrs and blend lines from machining. They can also be used for polishing or burnishing. Use them with organic media such as corn-cob or ceramic to achieve almost any finish.

These machines are suitable for seven-day-perweek and multiple shift operations. The machines were designed with heavy production requirements in mind. They can be used to fulfill large production needs such as deburring and slag grinding, edges radiusing, paint/surface prep, finishing/polishing, or any combination thereof.

Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. has the best dry metal machines for you. Our customers have access to a variety of dry metal machines that will increase their productivity, reliability, and safety in metalworking.

Abrasive

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.

Do you prefer a matte, or satin finish? To make your centrifugal barrels shine, add aluminum oxide blasting medium.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

Surface Finishing Machine has a metallic bowl that holds media, water, and finishing compounds.

Finishes are applied at the end of a construction or manufacturing process to form the final surface of an element. They can protect the element they finish from impact, water, frost, corrosion, abrasion, and other elements, as well as be decorative.
