Centrifugal Industrial Spin Dryers / Chip Wringers
Industrial spin dryer / chip wringers are a perfect complement to our centrifugal barrel finishers mass finishing equipment. Since barrel finishers utilize water in combination with media, parts need to be dried after the cycle is complete. Often mass finished parts are small and nested which makes them difficult to dry with heated air only. […]
Vibratory Bowl Mass Finishing Systems
INDUSTRIES SERVED: Medical Device Aerospace Electronics Disc Drive Automotive Semi-Conductor Vibratory Bowl Finishers operate by placing a mixture of your parts together with polishing media in a bowl-shaped machine that uses vibration to agitate the parts and media. At the end of the cycle, the parts travel up a ramp to discharge the parts and recapture […]
What is Titanium Anodizing? How to Anodize Titanium
Types How It Works Process Steps Titanium anodizing is an electrolytic finishing process that manipulates the oxide layer on the surface of titanium via electric current. The titanium item forms the anode (positive electrode) of an electrolytic cell; hence the name “anodize.” Anodizing has a long history in the aerospace industry, where it was first […]
Deburring Machines: Centrifugal Barrel Finishing Systems
System Description Common Applications Common Configurations Centrifugal barrel finishing machines are the fastest and most cost-effective method for deburring and/or polishing large quantities of metal parts at once. Also known as rotary tumblers or harperizer systems, centrifugal barrel finishing machines use a cyclical sliding action to grind the metal surface. Centrifugal barrel finishing is a […]
