New Development from Rösler: Flow Finishing System

A New Technology for Mass Finishing Applications

With the Flow <link _top>Finishing system Rösler has developed a unique mass <link _top>finishing system with high performance, high flexibility, little <link _top>space requirements and a high degree of automation – shown at AMB Stuttgart in hall 6, stand E32.


<link file:7082>The Flow Finisher was developed for deburring, surface grinding, edge radiusing, polishing and de-greasing of small, flat parts up to larger parts.  Any parts shape and material can be processed.

New, innovative <link _top>surface <link _top>finishing solutions are required for shorter product <link _top>life <link _top>cycles, a growing number of product variations and increasing competition. A good example for such an innovative approach is the new Flow Finisher for which Rösler has filed for a patent. The Flow Finisher can be used for the <link _top>deburring, <link _top>surface <link _top>grinding, <link _top>polishing, edge breaking and <link _top>degreasing of small, flat <link _top>components up to larger parts of different shapes, made from different <link _top>materials.


<link file:7083>The new Flow Finisher is characterized by a high productivity, a wide range of processing possibilities, compact design and easy automation. The gentle, flowing movement of the parts allows the surface finishing of parts which until now, could not be finished in a mass finishing system.

The Flow Finisher is ideal for <link _top>surface <link _top>finishing of delicate, thin-gauge parts which tend to bend or <link _top>warp. In this unique mass <link _top>finishing system parts and media are tumbling over each other in the work <link _top>chamber, which is formed by a <link _top>continuous belt. The <link _top>intensity of the <link _top>finishing <link _top>process for different parts can be <link _top>adjusted by the variable belt speed and the use of different <link _top>grinding or <link _top>polishing media. The  variable belt speed allows a processing range from very aggressive to extremely gentle. The “flowing” motion of media and parts allows the processing of highly delicate parts which until now, could not be finished in a mass <link _top>finishing system. One of the significant features of the Flow Finisher are dividers in the work <link _top>chamber, which prevent parts from nicking each other. Another feature is the quick change of media: By reversing the direction of the belt, media and parts are quickly and completely unloaded from the work <link _top>chamber and transferred to a <link _top>vibratory screener where they are <link _top>separated. Combined, these features ensure absolute batch integrity. The <link _top>vibratory screener is usually equipped with an undersize media classification <link _top>screen.

The work <link _top>chamber is easily <link _top>accessible. Since the flow finisher does not emit any <link _top>vibrations, it can be installed in the direct vicinity of <link _top>machine tools. It can actually be linked with <link _top>machining centers with various <link _top>material handling systems for fully automatic <link _top>operation. Automatic transfer of the finished parts to a <link _top>drier is also possible.

As an all-round supplier, Rösler GmbH is an international market leader in the <link _top>production of <link _top>surface <link _top>finishing, <link _top>shot blasting machines, painting systems and preservation lines  as well as <link _top>process technology for the rational <link _top>surface <link _top>finishing (<link _top>deburring, <link>descaling, <link _top>sand removal, <link _top>polishing, <link _top>grinding…) of <link _top>metals and other <link _top>components. Besides the German plants in Untermerzbach and Bad Staffelstein, the Rösler Group has branches in Great Britain, France, Italy, The Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, Spain, Romania, China, Brazil, South Africa and USA.
