Edge Rounding
The edge rounding of sheet metal delivers the desired edge radius to the material. The sharp edges are removed and the edges are prepared for further processing such as painting.
Slag Removal
Often not fully ejected slag (dross) sticks to thick materials during plasma or oxyfuel cutting. This slag has to be removed before the part can undergo further processing. Unlike burrs, slag can easily be chipped off with the right tools.
Oxide Removal
Oxide byproducts are removed from the cut edges via a combination of deburring tools and machine operations.
Surface Finishing
Usually, the sheet metal surface is already treated during the mechanical deburring operation. This could be the result of the deburring and rounding tools or purposefully applied by a surface finishing unit.
Removing Stubborn Burrs with Our Deburring Tools
There have been many positive changes for the employees at Südstahl with the EdgeBreaker®. “The entire concept should be geared to making it fast and easy. That way we will have employees that are committed to deal with the machines,” so Oliver Wetenbacher, Head of Production, about the EdgeBreaker® ease of use. “At SÜDSTAHL, the acceptance for ARKU technology is very good,” he sums it up.
Südstahl relies on the EdgeBreaker® 4000. The grinding drum outfitted with an abrasive belt removes stubborn burrs. Edge rounding blocks round the sheet metal parts on both sides in a single pass.
Success stories from the field.
Edge rounding tools:
BOGBALLE rounds the parts so that the powder coating of its spreaders won’t chip off. Bogballe backs the EdgeBeaker® with edge rounding blocks.
Tools for flame-cut parts:
KTS is specialized in thermal cutting and CNC milling of steel. Mario Koch, Managing Director of KTS, believes in ARKU’s automated deburring solution with deburring roller and rounding blocks.
Flame-cut parts without slag formation:
Straub (Germany) has growing demand in cleanly deburred and rounded flame-cut parts for its small-batch and large scale production with time constraints and high quality requirements attached.
