The industry's most reliable finishing system, the centrifugal barrel finishing system, is used with many metals including brass, aluminum and steel as well as stainless steel, chrome and titanium. This system cannot deburr plastic parts because it is too flexible for plastic.
Barrel tumblers create sliding friction by using rotary movement and abrasive-tumbling media. Think of putting rocks into a container and rolling it downhill. The parts are pushed against the media or other parts, and this is called deburring.
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.
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.
The versatile and widely used centrifugal barrel finishing machines are great tools for metal finishing.
These machines are built for the multiple shift and seven-day-per-week operations. Built with the heaviest production requirements in mind to allow you to meet your large production needs whether it be deburring, slag grinding, edge radiusing, paint/surface preparation, finishing/polishing or a combination of these applications.
The Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. portfolio consists of everything from a simple rotary vibrationator to fully automated, robotic surf finishers. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. has a strong core strength in developing and implementing custom-designed processes and systems. Metal, ceramic, wood...deburring, rust removal, or polishing: The options available to Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. mass finish machines are virtually limitless.
Barrel tumblers make sliding friction using rotary movement combined with abrasive, tumbling media. Imagine you are putting rocks in an old barrel and rolling it up a hill. As the parts slide on the media, or against each other part, deburring or polishing happens.

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.
Mass finishing refers a group of manufacturing processes that can be applied to large quantities of pieces simultaneously. In mass finishing, metal parts that are not in use are placed in containers. This creates friction and causes the metal to rust. This friction can cause a cutting action, which can take many forms: from heavy grinding to fine Polishing.
There are many performance-enhancing options available for the FC 10. The corner stapler attachment can staple up to 10 sheets at once. Easy mobility is possible thanks to the heavy-duty base that's mounted on casters. Underwriters Laboratories in the USA and Canada have certified the FC 10.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. offers a range of support products for printing, including paper joggers, pressure sealers, drills, as well as everything necessary to complete the ultimate finishing system.
Surface Finishing Machine has a metallic bowl that holds media, water, and finishing compounds.
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.
Metal finishing aids in the reduction of wear and tear on metallic products. Aside from aesthetics, it has a wide range of industrial applications. It helps to improve electrical conductivity, torque resistance, and metal solderability, among other things.
