FMDF 500 – 2 Head
Drag finishing machines are a specialized type of surface finishing equipment widely used in manufacturing to achieve high-quality finishes on precision components. Unlike tumbling or vibratory systems, drag finishing involves mechanically dragging parts through a bed of grinding or polishing media using specially designed fixtures. This process offers precise control over the interaction between the part and the media, making it ideal for applications such as deburring, polishing, and chamfering of complex and high-value parts that require specific edge or surface specifications.
– Two process heads with simple loading & unloading of fixtures
– Planetary drive system with auto-reverse & synchronous belts
– Digital PLC touch screen with controls for forward/reverse time, total process time, up/down control, total hour logger, media change timer, & programmable immersion depth
– Bel Air’s Chamber-Lift™ technology eliminates the complex shaft & bearings system common on most drag finishers currently on the market
– Stainless steel media chamber with quick-change feature allows for quick swapping of process media and easy machine cleaning
– Modular 40mm aluminum extrusion frame, accommodating easy auxiliary equipment installation
– Durable powder-coat finish
