Deburring

During the manufacturing process, particularly machining and drilling, surfaces can develop sharp edges and in some cases even heavy burrs. Burrs can lead to issues during the assembly process, which is why deburring, or the removal of burrs, is crucial. An expert here can help you find the right type of deburring equipment or tumbling media for deburring.

At SurfacePrep, most deburring processes are done with mass finishing equipment, such as vibratory bowls or tubs or mass finishing high energy equipment such as centrifugal barrel finishers. Although less common, blasting can also be employed for deburring. The actual size of the burr is not as important as the root of the burr or point of attachment.
