Perfect for digital applications, the GoCrease creasers allow documents printed on heavy or coated stock to be creased prior to folding, creating a crisp more accurate fold with no cracking
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.
Use of the correct tumbling media is crucial for centrifugal barrel finishing. The wrong media, particularly the wrong geometry, can double the cycle time for parts. Using cones or cylinders for tumbling media when not appropriate can slow down processing time significantly.
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.
Vibratory tumblers shake a bowl or tub by using a side to side motion. This is similar to rock polishing tools that many of our children used to play with. Finalizing occurs by rubbing the parts against one another.
We have the unique capability to custom design solutions for our customers within our in-house lab, enabling us to create a tailored, innovative solution.
This industry standard is the centrifugal bar finishing system. It can be used with many kinds of metals including aluminum, brass, stainless steels, chrome, titanium, and stainless steel. This type of system is not able to deburr plastic parts as it is too soft.
Do not forget to add the detergent. Although you might believe that the cleaning compound is only for metal parts, the detergent is essential for the tumbling media. Cleaning compound provides lubricity that keeps pores open in the tumble media. The cutting action of the tumble media stops working if the pores become clogged. Metal parts will turn black. You have probably forgotten to add the soap if the parts turn black.
At Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc., we offer top-quality abrasive finishing solutions to meet our customers’ individual application and material requirements. Our machines complete various tasks depending on the application, including deburring, slag grinding, edge rounding, calibrating, and finishing. Among other metal finishing machines, we offer dry metal machines, which function in many applications and provide numerous benefits.
The correct tumbling media is critical for centrifugal bar finishing. The wrong media and particularly the wrong geometries can make it twice as long to finish a part. When appropriate, cones or cylindricals are used for tumbling media. This can dramatically slow down processing times.
Flat parts making you feel confused? Flat parts, such as washers, present the greatest challenge for centrifugal bar finishing. These parts can stick to the barrel or wick together, so only one side of the barrel gets deburred. You can add glass beads blasting media to the centrifugal bar finishing process. The beads coat the parts, so they don't stick to each other and the barrel. Parts that tend to be coiled together can also use glass beads.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. bookletmakers, finishing systems, and bookletmakers are known for their speed and versatility. The Sprint series models are well-respected in the print finishing sector for their reliability and performance. The SF2 bookletmaker is a revolutionary use of wire-fed stitching technology, previously available only in larger systems that can cost up to threefold more.
Safety is also improved by using a deburring machine. It reduces repetitive motion injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome that can be caused by polishing and deburring by hand. Handwork is much more comfortable with a centrifugal barrel machine than it is with handwork. Although centrifugal tumblers require that operators manually load each barrel, the machine's high speed makes up for the labor intensity.
