The type of work that an industrial tumbler machine performs can be placed into three categories, in ascending order of smoothness:
A grinding wheel can be described as a disc or cylindrical for cutting with abrasive or cutting action or sharpening cutting tools .
Polishing is typically a dry process that uses ground-up corn cob media with embedded polishing compound. Dry processing can also be done with ground-up walnut shells.
No matter the number of steps involved, each step should be done independently. This means that you can't do deburring and polishing at the same moment. Instead, first deburr, then polish. If more than one step are needed, the steps must all be done in ascending ordinal order of smoothness.
An industrial tumbler machine can perform three types of work, in ascending order by smoothness.
A centrifugal barrel parts tumbler eliminates 95% of the manual work involved in polishing or deburring parts by hand. The reduction in hand sorting is a significant improvement on production and return of investment. A centrifugal barrel finisher eliminates the need to use a microscope to find defects and remove any burrs. This reduces waste and costs.
Centrifugal barrel tumblers are a specialized form of barrel tumblers in which centrifugal force adds to the effects of barrel tumbling.

Finishes are applied at the end of a construction or manufacturing process to form the final surface of an element. They can protect the element they finish from impact, water, frost, corrosion, abrasion, and other elements, as well as be decorative.
The Inovatec Automatic Surface Finishing Machine has a PLC control system that allows you to control the entire surface finishing process. It is a completely automated and labor-saving solution. Suitable for deburring and polishing a large batch of small parts at once.
Metal finishing is the process of altering an object's surface in order to improve its appearance and/or durability. Metal finishing is related to electroplating, which is the electrodeposition of a thin surface coating of metal onto another.
