Research results on a gyro-polisher were published in “International Journal of Automation Technology”.

“Finishing speed improvement using side cover plates in gyro finishing” was published in Issue 17 of the journal. Lead-time reduction was achieved by installing a restraining plate to improve the processing speed of the workpiece. This is a joint paper with Kanazawa University.

Market Launch of our renewed CBF Machine “HS-R30ACE”

Our New Barrel Finishing Device, HS-R30ACE, has been launched on to the market.
The HS-R30ACE is a renewal of our 4X 7.1L Barrel “HS-R30X”, a best seller on the market, but with a new “simplicity of use” added to its highly prized repertoire.
This machine succeeds its predecessor as a new-generation machine by featuring our newly developed, removable “SPot” lining (SPot), a large, easy to use touch-panel HMI for users to customize every detail of their production specifications and thorough attention to safe-use. Handling from rough finishing all the way to mirror finishing, this machine excels at precision finishing and process time reduction.

Publication of an Academic Article based on our TVF🄬 in the European “Chemical Engineering and Processing” Journal

“Flow and mixing characteristics of gas-liquid slug flow in a continuous Taylor-Couette flow reactor with narrow gap width” a joint paper with Kobe University’s Ohmura Laboratory has been peer-reviewed and published into a European journal.

This article explores how we developed such high extrudability, with a distributed particle size 1000th that of its predecessors, through the combination of our high RPM, micro-capping TVF and Kobe Universities amalgamation optimization technology. We expect to see this technology to revolutionize processes utilized in the medical and fine-chemical industries.

Barrel Finishing is a must for Additive manufacturing (AM) Optimization

Our machines handle nearly all metal and plastic work pieces produced in 3D printers; from titanium and inconel to maraging steel steel.
We have positive responses from customers who tell us that our machinery fufills all of their AM post-processing needs; from surface treatment/polishing after printing to dealing with ghosting and artifacting.
・Mighty Mild’s high pressure flow and G-Force adds extra kinetic friction to small medial such as our E-series micromedia; giving our users more grinding/polishing power that reaches every part of their work pieces, including previously unreachable parts segments.
・Our “Drag Finish”range, a dry-media type finishing machine, uses highspeed rotational flow to handle even the most complexly shaped work-pieces.

We are here for your every finishing and surface grinding need; please feel free to contact us for any inquiries.

The Launch of our new abrasive media “Precise media E series”.

We have just released our new “precise” E series media to the market for sale.
This star shaped abrasive media with a minimum size of 2 mm improves contact with corners, gaps and recesses while maintaining high grinding power.

In addition, by adopting new, exclusive technology, we have achieved precise tolerances and a stable shapes which were previously impossible with previous abrasive media.

We expect to see this media applied in post-processes for tiny metallic parts, complexly shaped work pieces such as 3D printed mechanisms, machined and press-forged parts and brittle components such as ceramic electrical components

(MLCC,etc).
