About Automatic Mass Finishing System

  • 1. What is the automatic mass finishing system?
  • The automatic mass finishing system, also called the automatic finishing and polishing production line, is a mechanical equipment for finishing and polishing that uses modern transmission and electrical control technology from a series of processes such as feeding, deburring, polishing, cleaning, separating, drying, and discharging, combined into a complete set of integrated assembly lines. The main purpose is to reduce manual work, improve production efficiency, reduce production costs, and ensure the surface treatment quality of product workpieces.
  • 2. Why do I need to use the automatic mass finishing system?
  • For some manufacturers who need to carry out a large amount of daily finishing and polishing treatments such as deburring, descaling, deflashing, derusting degreasing, cleaning, polishing and brightening, etc., they are generally equipped with multiple finishing and polishing machines and Complete with auxiliary equipment. For example, some machines are used for rough finishing, some machines are used for fine finishing, and some machines are used for polishing brightness. The flow of product workpieces between different machines requires loading, unloading, and screening, cleaning, transportation, drying and other different processes, each process requires personnel to operate. Medium and large operating capacitibility of mass finishing machines usually process hundreds or even thousands of kilograms every time. The labor intensity of loading and unloading so many parts into different machines is huge. Moreover, manual loading and unloading takes at least half an hour at a time. Therefore, using independent machines to perform polishing operations is a time-consuming and laborious task that requires a lot of labor costs and has low production efficiency.

    In order to reduce labor intensity and improve work efficiency, we can design and connect the finishing and polishing machines at different process points using auxiliary facilities such as mechanical hydraulic lifting, conveying transmission, online cleaning, and online separating, so that the product workpiece can be completely processed from feeding to finished product discharging. Realize online operation, reduce manual intervention, and realize automated mass finishing functions.
    Using these modern mechanical and electrical control technologies, you can turn your mass finishing equipment into a fully automatic CNC finishing machine, greatly improving equipment utilization, reducing labor costs, increasing finishing and polishing efficiency, and creating greater profits for your factory. If you don’t know where to find this kind of automated mass finishing system, we can analyze the calculation data and propose a solution based on your actual production situation.

  • 3. What systems does the automatic automatic mass finishing system consist of?
  • 3.1 Automatic loading system. The first machine that starts the finishing process will be equipped with a material lifting hopper. Workers only need to put the abrasive media or product workpieces before rough finishing into the hopper and control the lifting of the hopper to put the materials into the machine.

    3.2 Tumbling finishing and polishing machines. The finishing machine is the main component of the automatic finishing and polishing production line. This part of the system can be vibratory finishing machine, or centrifugal disc finishing machine, or centrifugal barrl finishing machine, even Rotary tumbling barrel finishing machine.

    3.3 Auxiliary discharging device. Every finishing machine needs to unload after finishing is completed. When the vibrating finishing machine discharges materials, it is necessary to configure a hydraulic or pneumatic turning plate inside the machine to connect the bottom of the machine’s working chamber and the discharge port separating screen. When the material needs to be discharged, press the control button to turn the flap up and close the separating screen, so that the workpiece can automatically climb from the groove to the separating screen and output the workpiece. When the centrifugal disc finishing machine discharges materials, it is necessary to use the hydraulic struts at the bottom of the barrel of the machine to hold up the barrel and turn it over, so that the abrasive media and the workpiece can be poured into the built-in vibrating separator for discharge. Centrifugal barrel finishing machines are rarely integrated into automatic production lines. There is no need to equip additional special equipment when discharging materials. You only need to turn the barrel opening downwards to pour out the materials.

    3.4 Separating device. Each machine is equipped with a separating screen to automatically separate workpieces and abrasives after discharging. The vibrating polishing machine is built into the working bowl, and the other three machines require additional special separating screens.

    3.5 Transmission system. Using mesh belts and rollers, the separated workpieces are transferred to the machine for the next process. Some transfer systems are also equipped with a flushing function to clean the workpiece again during the transfer process.

    3.6 Water-liquid circulation system. Using the sewage treatment system, the flushed wastewater containing polishing compound is recycled and filtered and pumped into the machine again for use.

    3.7 Drying system. There are two ways, one is to transport the cleaned workpieces into a vibrating dryer, the other is to equip an online pass-through drying box to dry the workpieces on the conveyor belt.

  • 4. What types of automatic automatic mass finishing system does ShineTec have?
  • According to different finishing machines, there are four types of automatic mass finishing system: vibratory finishing system, centrifugal disc finishing system, centrifugal barrel finishing system, and barrel tumbling finishing system. The first two models are most commonly integrated into production lines.
  • 5. Where can the automatic mass finishing system be used?
  • All factories that currently need to use multiple finishing machines for surface treatment processes such as deburring and descaling can consider configuring automated mass finishing system.
    Here are some questions you can pre-evaluate:

    How do your product workpieces flow between polishing machines in different processes?

    How long does it take to transfer between each different process?

    How did you add water and polish compound?

    How do you separate tumbling media and workpieces?

    If an automatic assembly line is used for circulation, how many finishing batches can be added?

    On this basis, after comparing the investment returns, you can consider whether to invest in this kind of automated mass finishing production line.

  • 6. How to choose a suitable automatic mass finishing system?
  • It is indeed a challenge to choose an automated mass finishing system that is most suitable for your product finishing and polishing process.

    The tumbling barrel finishing automated production line is the slowest type of work efficiency, but it can achieve the most beautiful results for the surface polish quality of the product, especially for surface finish and gloss. In terms of brightness, it can have an effect close to mirror polishing.

    Automatic vibratory (vibrating) finishing system are the most widely used type. Its working efficiency is much higher than that of the barrel finishing type. Because of the built-in separating screen, the material can be discharged directly from the working chamber, and there is no need to add a hydraulic lifting device to flip the working barrel. Therefore, the manufacturing cost of the entire production line can be lower than that of the disc finishing type and centrifugal barrel finishing type.

    Automatic centrifugal disc finishing system are also widely used. It has the highest working efficiency and can quickly achieve finishing and polishing effects. Since this type of machine needs to use a hydraulic lifting device to pour the materials in the barrel into a separately configured screen when discharging materials, the overall cost of the assembly line is higher.

    Automatic centrifugal barrel finishing system is suitable for surface treatment of precision parts. Because the processing capacity is small, it is not necessary to integrate into the assembly line, so there are few application areas.

    8.1 Tumbling media for rough finishing, mainly include ceramic deburring media, Resin media , divided into heavy cutting force, medium cutting force and light cutting force.

    8.2 Tumbling media for fine finishing, white Corundum finishing media, chrome corundum finishing media, 3P finishing media, etc., because the particle size of the micropowder contained in it is very fine, some of which are nearly 2000-3000 mesh, it can continuously perform micro-cutting on the surface of the workpiece to form a more delicate surface roughness.

    8.3 Tumbling media for polishing, include porcelain media, high-density porcelain media (a high-alumina porcelain media with an alumina content of more than 95%), stainless steel media, walnut shell polishing media, corn cob polishing media and so on. The main purpose is to improve the gloss and brightness of the workpiece surface.

    If you don’t know which is the best polishing media, please contact us and ShineTec can provide you with professional suggestions and answers.

  • 9. How long does it take to complete the polishing process on the automatic mass finishing system?
  • Now, the time it takes to polish a batch of workpieces using an automatic mass finishing system is definitely much shorter than manually operating several independent finishing machines.

    The length of processing time depends on which type of production line you have applied. Generally speaking, the centrifugal disc type and barrel type can complete the grinding work within 30 minutes. With discharging, cleaning and other processes, the entire process can be completed in as fast as 1 hour from feeding to discharging. The vibration-type unit may take 2 hours to complete the entire process, while the tumbling barrel-type unit may take longer and may take several hours to complete the finishing work.

  • 10. What is the daily maintenance of the automatic mass finishing system?
  • Regular daily maintenance can keep your polishing automatic production line in the best working condition, extend the service life of the machine, and reduce maintenance expenses.

    10.1 Inspection of mechanical components. The vibrating finishing automatic production line needs to add lubricating grease to the vibration motor used in the machine every month; the disc automatic finishing production line needs to check whether the gap between the barrel and the chassis is normal, whether there is a chuck, and whether the transmission belt is Relaxation; for a centrifugal barrel automatic polishing production line, it is necessary to check whether the transmission chain, sprocket or timing belt is worn, whether there is any abnormal noise during operation, and whether the barrel cover can be sealed; for a tumbling barrel-type automatic polishing production line, it is also necessary to check whether the transmission part is working Normal, there is no leakage after the cover is sealed. Some pneumatic or hydraulic devices on the production line also need to be checked for air and liquid leaks.

    10.2 Check the loading of abrasive media used. The loading of abrasive media in the machine should be checked before each start-up. Too much or too little usage will cause damage to the machine or product workpiece, affecting the efficiency of finishing and polishing.

    10.3 Water circulation system inspection. Check whether the water inlet, drainage, and quantitative filling of polishing compound are working properly. Pay special attention to whether the drainage pipe of the machine is blocked.

    10.4 PU lining examination. Check whether the PU or rubber lining of the machine is worn or damaged. If so, it needs to be replaced immediately.

    10.5 Don’t overdo it. Do not overload abrasive media and product workpieces into the machine. Generally, the total volume of materials does not exceed 70% of the total capacity of the machine. If stainless steel media need to be used in the machine, due to their large proportion, they are generally controlled within 50%.

  • 2. Why is wastewater treatment needed?
  • The finishing process of deburring and descaling requires the use of various abrasive media and Chemical Finishing Compound. Most abrasive media such as ceramic media, high alumina porcelain media, resin media and other materials will produce a large amount of sludge due to wear during the grinding process. This sludge is mixed with metal debris and other impurities that fall off the workpiece due to wear and tear. If not cleaned in time, the surface of the product will be worn. Therefore, during the finishing and polishing process, it is necessary to flush with water from time to time, and then flush with clean water. The waste water discharged from the drain outlet of tumbling finishing machine must be treated Environmentally friendly treatment and discharge directly.
    In addition, a large amount of clean water is used during the finishing process, and it is also mixed with chemical additives such as polishing compound. For environmental reasons, you cannot discharge this wastewater directly into the surrounding environment.
    This automatic sewage treatment system can solidify and dry sludge, recycle wastewater, and meet environmental protection requirements. It can well solve the problem of not knowing how to treat wastewater.

  • 3. Can the water treated by the automatic wastewater treatment system be reused?
  • Yes, the water treated by the automatic sewage treatment machine can be reused in the tumbling finishing machine.
  • 4. How does the automatic wastewater treatment system treat the sludge and sewage generated after finishing and polishing?
  • The wastewater discharged after finishing and polishing is introduced into the wastewater treatment tank of the automatic sewage treatment machine, which is also called a coagulation sedimentation tank. By adding some treatment agents to the water, usually called coagulants or coagulants, the particles that are difficult to settle in the water can aggregate with each other to form colloids, and then combine with other impurities in the water to form larger flocs. The large organic particles in the polishing liquid are adsorbed by the flocs, increase in volume and sink. The well-reacted wastewater is pumped into the filter press system for solid-liquid separation, forming mud cakes for solid waste treatment. The filtered water has been discharged up to standard and can be used for secondary use.

  • Yes, because the water treated by the automatic sewage treatment machine can be reused, which will greatly reduce the amount of water consumed by your factory in finishing and polishing processes. The recycled water can be recycled 3-5 times, which can save you a lot of water costs.
  • 6． How does the automatic wastewater treatment system reduce the cost of sludge treatment?
  • After the wastewater containing sludge is filtered by this sewage treatment system, the solid content of the mud cake can reach 50%-70%. The volume and weight are greatly compressed, and solid waste can be directly treated without the need for large-capacity sedimentation. The pool is handled by dedicated staff. The cost of sludge treatment can be greatly reduced.
  • 7. What are the benefits of using a wastewater treatment system?
  • 7.1 The disposal of large amounts of waste liquid generated during large-scale finishing and polishing processes is a very troublesome problem. It costs a lot to deal with it through a professional third-party recycling company. Configuring a large-capacity sedimentation tank yourself also requires a lot of capital and labor costs. Now you can invest in a set of small wastewater treatment equipment and machinery at one time. It perfectly solves the problem of environmental protection and is really a cost-effective solution.

    7.2 Recycling after sewage treatment can save you a lot of water costs and also bring you direct benefits.

    7.3 During the finishing and polishing process, a large amount of recycled water can be recycled to clean the workpiece to avoid debris and impurities during the finishing process from damaging the surface of the workpiece, causing problems such as pitting and scratches. It also improves the surface quality of the workpiece and avoids worries about using water. If the amount is too large, it will reduce the cleaning time during the grinding process and reduce the finishing efficiency or produce defective products.
