Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. lets you choose from standard or custom designed units for the best solutions.
The 2000-Series of machines are built with heavier 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.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. tabletop folders offer the perfect blend of speed, precision, & ease of usage, making them ideal for small offices, schools, as well as corporate environments. Automatic programmable folders store fold programs and can be set to run at the touch-of-a-button.
With the many options available, there is a certain art to selecting the correct media. Using incorrect media can cause significant problems, such as media becoming stuck in a hole in the part or damaging the part.
The AJ 700 air-feed paper jogger forces air between sheets to reduce jogging time and eliminate powder buildup and static. It also allows press sheets and digital copies to be dried immediately after printing to prevent offset. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. drills feature a deep, 2-inch drilling capacity and movable tables mounted on bearings for precise paper positioning. The 25 and 55 tabletop models feature 5 pre-set patterns which can be selected at the turn of a dial.
To create sliding friction, barrel tumblers combine rotary motion with abrasive media. You can imagine putting rocks in a barrel and then rolling it downhill. As the parts slide against each other, the deburring and polishing takes place.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. tabletop folders offer the perfect combination of speed, precision, and ease of use, making them ideally suited for small offices, schools, and corporate environments. Automatic programmable models store fold programs in memory and can be set up to run at the touch of a button.
Top/bottom machine processes both top and below the surface in one pass. Every square inch is processed exactly as it should be over the full width of the machine.
Tumbler media, which is used for mass finishing, grinds away the burrs on metal surfaces and cuts them. There are many types of tumbler media.
The Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. portfolio ranges in mass finishing machines from a basic rotary vibrator, to fully automated surf finishers equipped with robotic equipment. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. is a leader in the design and implementation custom-designed systems and processes. Metal, wood, ceramic, and metal...deburring, demulsing, descaling, rust elimination or polishing: The possibilities for Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc.'s mass finishing machines are endless.
The polishing step is usually done dry using ground-up corncob as media and embedded polishing compound. For dry processing, ground-up walnut shells can be used.

Finishing mortars and concretes; natural and artificial masonry materials; decorative ceramics; materials and items made of wood, paper, glass, plastic, and metals; and paints and varnishes are the most common finishing materials used in modern construction.
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.
Finishing processes can be used to improve the following characteristics: appearance, adhesion or wettability, solderability, corrosion resistance, tarnish resistance, chemical resistance, wear resistance, hardness, modify electrical conductivity, remove burrs and other surface flaws, and control surface friction.
