A line of Type 1 cotton fiber abrasive wheels that outperform non-woven nylon wheels in many robotics deburring cell applications is available from Rex-Cut Abrasives.
Rex-Cut Smooth Touch Type 1 Deburring Wheels are made from cotton fiber, impregnated with abrasives and a proprietary bond, to create a dense yet flexible wheel that constantly reveals fresh abrasives while deburring. Ideally suited for edge finishing in robotic deburring cells, they are comparable to 6 to 9 density unitized wheels, maintain their density while being conformable, and can be dressed for a wide variety of applications.
Capable of lasting up to 10X longer than unitized wheels, depending upon the application, Rex-Cut Smooth Touch Type 1 Deburring Wheels are available in 1" to 6" dia. sizes from 1⁄16" to ¼" thick in coarse, medium, and fine grits. Also well suited for manual applications, they provide the same cushioned feel as nonwoven nylon and will not change a part's geometry.
