Tumble Drum Deflashing Machine
Our model DEF-DB-2.5 is an automated machine for deflashing batch loads of thermoset plastic parts. Part damage from part-on-part contact or machine pinch points is eliminated within the unique drum design providing a cost-effective solution for deflashing multiple small parts. The unit has a single wheel capable of delivering a wide variety of plastic medias. Parts are gently tumbled in a variable speed rotating drum under the blast stream. Cycle times as well as media delivery speed are also variable to suit the deflashing task needed.
The machine has a complete blast media recycling system with airwash separator to remove debris from the blast media. An anti-static liquid injection system is provided to control static on the media and dust on the parts.
The machine can be automated with loading and unloading equipment to suit many special processing needs. This type of technology is part of a broader range of deflash equipment that are designed to meet various production needs.
