Abtex Corp. announced a new machine for deburring powdered-metal parts when they're still in the "green" state, prior to sintering. Green parts are much less expensive to deburr than the same parts after they're hardened in the sintering process.
The new machine uses industry-leading Abtex brushes in an innovative configuration that deburrs opposite sides of any part in a single pass, accounting for further savings. The machine/brush interface is specially designed to remove only the dangerous burrs, preserving each part's unique geometry. Brushes can be easily customized for the specific deburring task.
The machine is also made for easy and efficient interface with existing equipment in any powdered-metal manufacturing environment:
• It's ruggedly built for 24/7 use, and designed to communicate both upstream and down.
• It features a chassis that can be raised and lowered by up to 10 inches to provide an efficient interface with existing equipment.
• It's built on casters for easy movement around the manufacturing floor.

sintering
Bonding of adjacent surfaces in a mass of particles by molecular or atomic attraction on heating at high temperatures below the melting temperature of any constituent in the material. Sintering strengthens and increases the density of a powder mass and recrystallizes powder metals.
