Tumbler Media is the abrasive for mass finishing. It grinds away burrs and lines on a metallic surface. There are many options for tumbler media.
Mass finishing is a collection of manufacturing processes which apply surface finishing on large quantities of parts at once. Mass finishing is when loose metal parts are placed into a container. The container moves and creates friction that causes friction on the metal surface. This friction leads to a cutting action which can result in any type of polishing or heavy grinding.

When searching for the right dry metal machine for your application, Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. offers some of the most reliable equipment. We provide our customers with a range of dry metal machines to increase the efficiency, dependability, and safety of metalworking applications.
The GoCrease creasers, which are ideal for digital applications, allow documents printed on heavy and coated stock to crease before folding. This results in crisper folds that don't crack.
To create sliding friction in barrel tumblers, rotary motion is combined with abrasive tumble media. The idea is simple: put rocks in a barrel, then roll it down a hill. Deburring and polishing occur when the parts slide against other parts.
Each of these three types can be completed by centrifugal finishing machines. They are also called steps. There may not be a need for all of these steps, depending on what surface finishes you require. You might have one, two, three, or all of these steps.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. is the most trusted dry metal machine manufacturer. Our customers can choose from a wide range of dry-metal machines to improve the safety, efficiency, and dependability of their metalworking operations.
Centrifugal barrel turners are a unique type of barrel tumblers. They use centrifugal force to add to the effects.
The media that is darker than the rest will cut faster. If the plastic media is extremely dark, it will likely be cut faster with a stronger abrasive. For mildly abrasive mass finish, mild-cutting is more common for lighter-colored media.
Do you prefer a matte, or satin finish? To make your centrifugal barrels shine, add aluminum oxide blasting medium.
Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. is proud to offer a wide range of digital finishing products. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. covers all aspects of digital finishing, including cutting, creasing, folding, etc. Aerocut digital cutting solutions are available for single-pass slitting. These all-in-1 digital finishing systems will raise your digital production levels.
The AJ 700 air feed paper jogger pushes air between sheets to reduce jogging speed and eliminate static. It allows for digital copies and press sheets drying immediately after printing. This prevents offset. Gulf States Saw & Machinery Co., Inc. drills are 2-inch deep and feature movable tables on bearings that allow for precise paper positioning. Five pre-set patterns are available for the 25 and 55 tabletop models. These patterns can be selected by turning a dial.
For removing significant burrs or blending lines caused by machining, centrifugal barrel-tumbling machines are well-suited. They are excellent in polishing, burnishing, and other applications. The centrifugal bar machines can work with a variety of organic and ceramic media, including corn-cob, to achieve any type of part finish, from extremely fine surface polishing to burr elimination.
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.
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.
Surface Finishing Machine has a metallic bowl that holds media, water, and finishing compounds.
