Basic Principles of Barrel Finishing |
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
Abrasive media, work pieces, compound and water are loaded into barrels at a certain ratio and are put into motion. Abrasive media and work pieces rub each other caused by the difference in weight, shape, speed and direction of abrasive media and work pieces. The friction generated under such movement results in surface finishing. |
