Deburring Sheet Metal Edges

Finishing is done to alter the surface of a workpiece getting rid of any scaling and pitting to enhance its quality or prepare it for a next step like painting.

Deburring sheet metal edges.

Deburring involves removing any raised edges or small pieces of material that remain attached to a workpiece after it s been modified. Deburring of sheet metal and components. Metal components that need deburred edges that cannot be sharp to the touch. Loeser is building machines for deburring edge rounding grinding and polishing of flat material like fine stamped parts or fine blanking parts as well as profiles.

Below are some examples. Its no question why sheet metal needs to be deburred. Whether by hand or by machine more and more sheet metal fabricators are incorporating edge deburring into their sheet metal processing chain. We will give you five tips you should be aware of when deburring sheet metal edges.

A rotary file is part milling cutter and part flat file and goes in a dremel or rotary air tool. Hand files are those flat blades with rows of tiny teeth. The process is used for the post treatment of metals. When you have deburred edges on your sheet metal you are ensuring safety of your metal piece.

Filing mechanical or rotary. Removing sharp edges on parts not only protects against injury but allows for optimal downstream processing. Today fabricators are becoming increasingly aware that edge deburring makes sheet metal fabrication easier during downstream processing. We integrate widebelt grinding systems as well as planetary cup brush technology.

Deburring your metal will take the burr off so that you limit the risk of anyone being cut. Deburring and edge rounding of sheet metal is one of our main fields.
