Mass finishing can economically enhance the utility, attractiveness, and value of the metal, plastic, ceramic or other parts manufactured for industrial or consumer use.  Mass finishing processes improve surface properties, upgrade product quality, and enhance the image of the manufacturing industry.  Edge, corner, surface finishing, including the removal of burrs, defects, and sharp edges improves part appearance and handling safety, and prepares surfaces for subsequent coating. Other benefits include easier assembly, improved operating performance, increased strength (in part by the elimination of surface stress concentrations), and longer product life. By imparting compressive stresses to the surfaces, fatigue strength can be improved.

Are you still hand-deburring your machined parts?  Do you need to be doing that?  Are you sure?

Are you still hand-deburring your machined parts? Do you need to be doing that? Are you sure?

a great many parts are being hand-deburred currently because the conventional mass finishing method(s) being used in the shop are incapable of exerting sufficient abrasive media pressure against edges and surfaces to remove unwanted and undesirable projections, sharp edges and burrs.  In many cases, it is possible to minimize hand-deburring procedures by utilizing a higher energy method that makes use of centrifugal force to propel abrasive material and rub away at edges and surfaces with dramatically more strength.   Continue reading Are you still hand-deburring your machined parts? Do you need to be doing that? Are you sure?
