Turbo-Finish for Lean Deburring and Finishing of Complex Rotating Parts

Turbo-Finish for Lean Deburring and Finishing of Complex Rotating Parts

TECHNOLOGY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY.  This technology is currently used in the United States to deburr and contour the edges of complex parts, and to create isotropic surface finishes essential in finishing many complex parts.  Unlike single-point-of-contact

Dr. Michael Massarsky, inventor of Turbo-Finish
machining technologies the technology is relatively simple to control once process parameters for a given part have been developed, and thus enjoys the attributes of reliability and repeatability of simpler mechanical (vs. digital feedback) technologies. However, It accomplishes uniform results on very complex parts that often cannot be achieved reliably by other much more complex, processes.

Hand deburring and manual polishing is the bane of many machine shop’s and machining department’s existence.  The same is true of parts manufactured with 3D printing technology.  What can be done to minimize the need for these tedious, time-consuming, labor-intensive production bottlenecks?  In many cases, the need for hand-deburring or surface finishing operations can be reduced greatly with high-energy and high-intensity isotropic finishing operations.  See below several examples below where laborious deburring procedures have been reduced, minimized or eliminated.

Meeting the Deburring Challenge on Complex Aerospace Parts

Meeting the Deburring Challenge on Complex Aerospace Parts

The technology involves developing a fluidized bed of media in which the part to be processed is partially immersed while being rotated.  A wide variety of differing results may be achieved by varying the process parameters (media, process time, rotational speed etc.). Process results can be closely controlled and are programmable, and are totally repeatable, providing unequaled process quality control.  The process is dry and involves no chemicals or environmentally unfriendly materials.
