Single Head End Deburring Systems

The Bradex single head end deburring systems, such as Model # 1000-SA-14 (pictured), are available in either a manual or a semiautomatic configuration. Within the system, a disc brushing tool is rotated on the vertical plane, and the extrusion end is presented, in a controlled manner, to the face of the brush.

The Manual System requires minimal training for setup and operation. Necessary adjustments for extrusion dimensions and desired brush penetration are easily made. The operator then secures the extrusion to the table with the clamping "arm" and begins to move the table through its range of motion. The extrusion end is first passed through the upper half of the brush. As the table reaches its travel limit, the motor/brush assembly indexes upward, and the extrusion returns through the lower half of the brush, completing the deburring cycle. Cycle time is variable.

The Semiautomatic System features ease of setup and 360° brush deburring action. Once the operator has loaded the extrusion(s), two palm buttons are pressed. This action initiates the pneumatic clamping mechanism and the table begins its range of motion. By removing operator involvement in the clamping and table traverse mechanisms, operator fatigue has been reduced and cycle time consistency has increased. Once the palm buttons have been pressed this system completes the deburring cycle in approximately 8 seconds.
