When selecting a metalworking machine to perform finishing, deburring, and other processes, you must choose between wet or dry metal machines. These complete the same process using different methods, with wet working machines dispersing a coolant mix onto the surface of processed parts, while dry machines function without this mix.
Industry workhorses, centrifugal barrel finish systems can be used to finish many metals, such as brass and aluminum, stainless, chrome, and steel. Plastic parts are not deburred by this type system, as plastic is too malleable for this process.

Mass finishing with a centrifugal barrel tumbler can be performed either wet or dry. Wet processes use a liquid lubricant, cleaner or abrasive, and dry processes do not. Each of the four barrels is loaded to roughly 50-80% of capacity with the following elements:

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 [...]
The detergent is essential. While you may think the cleaning compound was meant for the metal parts of the tumble media, it is actually necessary for its use. The cleaning compound helps keep pores open in the tumbling medium by providing lubricity. If the pores of the tumbling medium become glazed, cutting will cease to work. The metal parts will become black. The soap was not used to make the parts black.
Flat parts make you feel lost? Flat parts, like washers, pose one of the most difficult challenges in centrifugal-barrel finishing. Parts tend to stick to the barrel and wick together so that only one side can be deburred. To solve this problem, you can add glass bead blasting medium to the centrifugal drum finishing process. The beads protect the parts from sticking to each another and to the barrel. Glass beads can be used for parts that have a tendency to cup together.
These machines are built for the multiple shift and seven-day-per-week operations. Built with the heaviest production requirements in mind to allow you to meet your large production needs whether it be deburring, slag grinding, edge radiusing, paint/surface preparation, finishing/polishing or a combination of these applications.
A centrifugal barrel tumbler can perform mass finishing either wet- or dry. Wet processes use liquid lubricants, cleaners, or abrasives, while dry processes do not. Each barrel is filled to 50-80% capacity with the following elements.
The 2000-Series machines were designed with higher production requirements in mind. 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.
You can update your plant or fulfill your manufacturing processes needs using our cleaning and finishing equipment. It is a great product with outstanding quality, durability and safety.
The Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. portfolio consists mainly of a rotary vibrator, but also fully automated surf finishing machines with robotic equipment. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc.'s main strengths lie in the development and implementation of customized systems and processes that are tailored to each customer. Metal, plastic, clay, or wood...deburring, greasing, discaling, rust reduction or polishing: There is no limit to the possibilities with Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. mass completing machines.
Metal finishing is the process of altering an object's surface in order to improve its appearance and/or durability. Metal finishing is related to electroplating, which is the electrodeposition of a thin surface coating of metal onto another.
The Inovatec Automatic Surface Finishing Machine has a PLC control system that allows you to control the entire surface finishing process. It is a completely automated and labor-saving solution. Suitable for deburring and polishing a large batch of small parts at once.
The law of attraction between positively and negatively charged particles underpins the finishing technique of applying a coating to a metal surface. The paint is usually positively charged, while the support to be painted is negatively charged because it is wired to a strong electric field.
