Getting the Most From Custom Deburring
We live in an age where our ability to make adjustments and turn on a dime can determine our success. Part of the reason for this necessity is that changes are happening around us all of the time. Nowhere is this truer than in the area of technology. While this can be exciting from the perspective of innovation, new toys and new gadgets it also puts increased emphasis on the need for speed in other areas of life.
One of the best ways to think about this is the idea that the little things matter much more than they did before. In fact, it’s these so-called small things that become one of the primary cornerstones for innovations. One example of this in the manufacturing industry is an increasing emphasis on a custom deburring process. In the not-too-distant past, deburring was something generally left to a group of individuals who did this work by hand. Perhaps because of the exclusivity of this work, not all parts and tools benefitted from this process. Another aspect of the exclusivity is that the work did not happen on a wide range. As with many hard skills, the deburring process may or may not be done well by the next person or the skills may not be passed on at all.
More Efficient, Better Results
As they say, the future is here today. For manufacturers this means there’s an ever-present need to move quickly, be cost-efficient and make the most of every opportunity. For manufacturers working with powdered metal parts, not deburring would be unthinkable. Considering the versatility offered by compressed powdered metals it only makes sense to add the benefit of deburring. Because of the growing prevalence of powdered metal parts, the need for powdered metal deburring also increases along with a reliable method for deburring. A quality deburring system customized for a company’s specific deburring needs is the perfect way to keep parts and tools at their most efficient. As efficiency of the operations increases through reliable deburring, it becomes easier to reduce expense and unnecessary expensive waste, thus improving outcomes.
For manufacturers looking to meet the needs of through-feed and inline deburring, Cleveland Deburring Machine Company (CDMC), manufacturers powdered metal brush deburring machines guaranteed to provide an increased flexibility and versatility. The family-owned manufacturer created the CDMC Mag series a way for manufacturers to deburr powdered metal brush parts on one or both sides with 2-, 4- and 6-head platforms. A high-production manufacturing solution, the CDMC Mag series uses magnetic conveyors to draw the powdered metal parts in direct contact with a series of brush sets, enabling fast changeovers.
Under Control
When things move fast there’s the inevitable build up of heat, which can cause its own issues. To alleviate this issue, CDMC integrated a cooling system into the CDMC Mag series. In a side benefit, the cooling element also can increase the lifespan of Mag Series brushes. The company’s patented Auto Amp Compensation system maintains brush pressure.
