Vibratory finishing is a very versatile process, but like any process, it has its limitations. A common misconception is that vibratory finishing can be used for grinding. Material removal is uneven across the entire surface, which categorically rules out the possibility of grinding. Another problem is the time factor. Reducing the dimensions of components by several tenths or hundredths of a millimeter would require an extremely long process. This process would be associated

After wet processing, rinsing (cleaning) or drying often follows. After rinsing, the workpieces are covered with process water and compound, which can have negative consequences for different workpieces and materials. Metals can rust and damage the component, and stains or deposits can form on polished visible surfaces. Plastic parts cannot rust, but stains and deposits can also form here, which impair quality. Drying is the final step that determines the final quality and fu

Foaming during vibratory finishing does not occur at all in some processes and occurs to varying degrees in others. Sometimes foaming is desirable, while in other cases unwanted foaming impairs the machining result. Foaming depends on factors such as the compound itself, but also on water hardness, the amount of water-compound mixture supplied and other attributes. Grinding – compounds with low foaming: Low foaming results in shorter processing times and rougher surfaces.
