Top/bottom machine processes top and bottom in one pass, with 100% uniformity. Every square inch of any part is processed the same way over 100% of the machine's width.
A centrifugal barrel tumbler works on a principle similar to a Ferris wheel, with smaller baskets mounted on the edges of a large wheel. A centrifugal finishing machine, or harperizing system, has 4 barrels, each barrel representing a seat on a Ferris wheel, and one large flywheel. Each revolution of the flywheel results in one complete rotation of each barrel. The fast-turning flywheel generates extremely high centrifugal forces, up to 15 � 20 times the force of gravity, causing the contents to slide against each other under high pressure. The increased pressure allows for fast processing times of metal parts, as well as smooth, consistent finishes.
Every Triumph trimmer features stationary or movable transparent Lexan safety guards. All models are tested by independent safety labs and comply with all applicable international safety regulations. Triumph trimmers are certified under a quality management system established in all company areas under the DIN EN ISO 9001:2008 standards.
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.
Reduce the mess. You need to regularly clean out the sludge tanks. Here is how you can reduce the mess. You can then drain the water by placing horse bedding inside the sludge container to absorb the rest of the water. This makes it easy and less messy to get rid of the sludge by using a shovel.
You don't get a machine when you buy a Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. mass finishing product. Instead, you get a complete, worry-free package. Our in-house production of mass finish equipment and media, customer-focused designs, our own trained service technicians, spare parts, and waste water recycling make Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. mass ending equipment a complete and sustainable solution for our customers.
We will help you find the perfect machine for any metalworking job, regardless of whether your application requires small, lightweight systems to deburr smaller projects or larger, more robust models to perform multiple shifts and facilitate large-scale production.
Want a matte or satin finish? Add aluminum oxide blasting media to your centrifugal barrel finishing process, and the resulting part will be matte instead of shiny.
The use of a centrifugal barrel-finishing machine improves consistency and quality. Handwork yields only a 20% acceptance rate. But, with a centrifugal finisher, you can get much higher acceptance rates. Aside from being consistent in all directions, the surface finish following centrifugal part tumble is also isotropic. This is a big advantage over hand polishing.
As a general rule, darker media cuts more quickly than lighter ones. If the material is very dark, it is likely that it will be fast-cutting using a more aggressive tool. It is more likely that lighter media will be used for mildly abrasive finishing of mass.
We have clients who rely on our metalworking machines across a range of industries, including the following:
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.
Speed and versatility are the hallmarks of Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. bookletmakers and finishing systems. Our Sprint series models enjoy a solid reputation in the print finishing industry for performance and dependability. The revolutionary SF2 bookletmaker utilizes wire-fed stitching technology previously found only in larger systems costing up to three times more.
