From Roto-Max Brochure:
Centrifugal Disc Finisher
The technical and chemical engineers from Roto-Finish have perfected the
centrifugal disc technology and have produced a parts finishing system that is
second to none in the world. A bold statement that we back up with one of the
best warranties in the business.
Simply stated, Roto-Maxr is a high speed, high energy finishing system for
deburring, surface improvements, descaling and finishing parts made of metal,
rubber or plastic. It's a finishing machine designed to machine tool
specifications. Roto-Maxr machines reduce vibratory process cycles for
deburring hard metals, rough forgings and castings 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 stationary 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 efficient process that
is up to 15 times faster than our own superior vibratory finishing process.
The small open space between the rotor and the lower ring is the seal gap. The
patented Roto-Maxr Up-Flowr uses pressurized solution and processing compound
which is forced up through the seal to keep the seal gap area lubricated and
free of small abrasive particles, which greatly increases the seal life. This
is Up-Flowr.
Solution in the lower chamber stabilizes the rotor, thus maintaining its
symmetrical alignment during rotation - a process known as hydrostatic
balancing. The constant cooling effect of the water on the urethane prevents
expansion and premature seal failure.
Water, compound and contaminates are continuously drained through the sidewall
drain screens in the processing chamber. Upon the cycle completion, the Roto-
Maxr Up-Flowr allows the abrasive particles to drain down through the patented
hollow-core drive shaft in the center of the processing chamber. This unique
draining ability prevents material from entering the seal and thus increases
the seal life. It completely drains the fluid from the mass. With other
designs, processing fluid is left in the bottom of the process chamber. This
results in greater potential for media residue and corrosion.
Roto-Maxr dry finishing units also utilize our patented Up-Flowr. Compressed
air (used in place of solution) is forced up through the lower seal gap
preventing media, parts or other abrasive material from accumulating in the
seal area. The dry Roto-Maxr Up-Flowr is used for a variety of processes, e.g.
to deburr, descale, or to achieve high-luster finishes.
Features:
Seal design accommodates a wide variety of parts and media sizes.
Choice of smooth or ribbed polyurethane lining.
Power separation of parts, media and fines.
PC control panel with process timer and hour meter.
1800 rpm, 230/460 V, 3 phase, 60 Hz main drive motor.
Helical bevel gear box.
Electrically controlled compound solution system with water flow meter and
flow control processing and shutdown functions.
Programmable control, will shutdown the machine automatically if the
solution flow rate is insufficient.
Custom urethane linings for specific applications.
Summary of Benefits:
Centrifugal action is approximately 15 times faster than traditional
vibratory finishing.
Cooler, more cushioned mass reduces part damage.
Unique seal design reduces intrusion of smaller parts and media, thus
extends service life of rotor.
Wider range of surface finishes attainable with a given media.
Provides high energy deburring, descaling and improving surface finishes.
