CENTRIFUGAL DISC FINISHER
Model RM-3A, New 2002, S/N
RM-3A-02-A1
DESCRIPTION:
The Hammond Roto Finish
Roto Max is a High Speed, High Energy Centrifugal Finishing System for Deburring,
Surface Improvements, Descaling and Finishing Parts Made of Metal, Rubber or
Plastic. It is a Finishing Machine Designed to Machine Tool Specifications. Roto
Max Machines Reduce Vibratory Process Cycles for Deburring Hard Metals, Rough
Forgings, and Casting to the Finishing of Jewelry, Hardware, and Medical
Implants.
Centrifugal Disc Technology
Involves a Machine Consisting of a Motor Driven, Saucer Shaped Rotor Mounted
Inside and Near the Base of a Large Processing Chamber. Both the Rotor and the
Sationary Lower Ring are Coated with High Impact Resistant Molded Polyurethane
for Extended Life.
Parts, Media and Compound are
Loaded into the Processing Chamber, and the High-Speed Disc Rotation Creates the
Centrifugal Force that Moves the Media and Parts up the Stationary Sidewall.
When the Mass Reaches the Apex, the Force of Gravity Pulls the Material Back to
the Disc. The Process Repeats.
The Doughnut
Shaped Path of the Mass Produces a Highly EfficientProcess that is up to 15
Times Faster than the Vibratory Finishing Process.
SEQUENCE OF OPERATIONS:
- Parts and Preselected Media are Placed
into the Loading Hopper
- On Command, the Hopper is Elevated and
Transfers its Contents into the Processing
Chamber and a Rinse Bar Flushes the Hopper with Water
- The Controlled Start Up Speed of the Motor Begins the Rotation of the
Rotor. Water and Chemical Compound are Metered in to the Processing Chamber
Throught the Seal.
- Following the Timed Controlled Cycle, the Unit Shuts Down and the Solution
is Drained Through the Hollow Core Drive Shaft, then the Processing Chamer
Pivots Automatically to Empty its Contents of Parts and Media.
- Contents are Emptied onto a Multi Level Vibrating Screening System. The Top
Separating Screen, with Openings Sized to Retain the Parts, Shakes the Media
Through and Transports the Finshed Parts to the Front of the Machine.
NOTE: New Replacement Price is in Excess of $ 83,000.
