\brasive Finishing Machine kbo-Finish of America Inc. hrtlett, N. H. Turbo-abrasive finishing replaces nanual finishing, deburring, and ;&ace conditioning of complex )art shapes such as turbine disks, mpeller, gears, sprockets, and other :ircular-type parts. Complex noncir- :ular parts may be finished along ,vith simple interior channels. A variety of machine models is able to jrocess parts from 2-48 in. in liameter and larger. The process features semiautomatic loading and mloading and process cycle times 3f 3-8 min. Problems associated with media lodging and wet finish- ing effluent treatment are said to be :liminated as processes are run :ntirely with finely sized dry media.

Harper Surface Finishing Sys- tems’ Mini Harperizer is particu- larly well suited for deburring and superfinishing of small precision parts. Typical applications include instruments, jewelry, bearings, springs, ceramic components, and computer chips. The Mini Harper- izer can also finish larger compo- nents on an individual basis (six parts per cycle, up to 5 in. in diameter). A Mini Harperizer can radically increase production of parts that are usually finished by hand and is up to 90 times faster than tumbling barrels or other vibra- tory means.

Abcut is three times heavier than ceramic media, so it finishes up to ten times faster with a higher parts-to- media ratio than ceramic or plastic media. Abcut knurled-surface, long-life, high-carbon chrome steel is offered in three standard sizes: t/8 in. x l/2 in., %2 in. X ‘ /8 in., and 7/32 in. X 7/8 in. Special sizes are also available.
