Rotary Tumbling Barrels

Robust rotary tumbling barrel for cleaning cast parts of sand, scale and gate remnants.

Applications

  • Cleaning sand and scale from cast parts
  • Breaking off gate and feeder remnants
  • Descaling forged parts
  • Rough cleaning before vibratory finishing

Working Principle

The tumbling barrel is the first cleaning step for parts after casting. As the steel-bodied barrel rotates slowly the parts strike each other and the barrel wall; sand, scale and thin gate remnants break off and separate. Light burrs are removed at this stage as well.

The barrel is sized according to load and part weight; the interior is protected with wear-resistant plates. Parts leaving the tumbling barrel receive their final surface in the vibratory finishing machines.

Advantages

  • Robust body for heavy castings
  • Wear-resistant interior plates
  • Simple operation, low maintenance
  • Compatible with the vibratory line
