Finishing media and compounds are a key component in the finishing process, providing the final touch that many products and customers require. Different materials and shapes can be used, and they can be either wet or dry, to ensure a clean, polished and smooth part surface.
The choice of compound will depend on the material to be treated, the desired surface finish and the individual application and process requirements. As a leader in vibratory finishing, Vibra Finish can help customers determine the most appropriate solution.
Vibratory finishing
A vibratory machine is typically used for thorough cleaning and deburring of delicate parts, or parts with hard-to-reach recesses or large surfaces. Vibratory compounds, along with selected finishing media, are added to the vibratory machine with the parts for mass finishing. The machines cause a sliding or tumbling action between the parts and the media, which helps to clean, polish and smooth part surfaces. The rubbing action causes abrasive results on the parts, effectively cleaning them, while the vibratory compounds used are designed to keep the debris from depositing back on the parts.
Finishing options
When selecting the type of media and compounds, there are several options to consider.
