During most machining operations, components become burred, and sharp edges or material compression occurs. This effects the quality of the part and can create issues with assembly and also failure of parts due to break off of material during working life. Removal of burrs is often critical to many of the lapping and polishing processes Kemet develop for customers, to prevent damage to lapping/polishing support materials and extend their life.

Other methods of deburring include thermal deburring in which combustive gasses are used to basically burn the burrs off of the surface and is ideal for hard-to-reach areas. There is also Electrochemical deburring, where a mixture of salt and glycol is used to conduct energy through the surface, removing the burs with blasts of energy, leaving the rest of the workpiece unscathed. A Swiss pattern file is an extra fine file best for precision filing – for example, with instrument parts and dies. Practical Machinist members who mentioned “Swiss” need a very fine file for their deburring applications. Do not mistake this for being Swiss made.This is considered to be the most comprehensive book on burr removal and the treatment of edges. Written by an industry expert, dive into LaRoux Gillespie’s in-depth guide to different deburring technologies and learn what the most cost-effective options are for your application. All dimensions above are in inches. Intermediate sizes, and tools for diameters larger than shown, are available upon request. Introducing an innovative chamfering tool that revolutionises the machining process by eliminating the generation of burrs and consequently eliminating the need for an additional deburring step. This groundbreaking tool not only saves valuable time but also reduces tool costs, making it a game-changer in the manufacturing industry. Rollover burrs - These are the most common types of burrs. They are tiny bits of curled metal projecting up from the workpiece. Much like a chip that hasn't fully detached. Breakout burrs - These form an upswelling shape. They often look like they are pushing out of the surface.

In this book you will find a complete inventory of all the elements you need to optimize your hand-deburring operations. You will better understand when hand deburring is the answer and obtain a holistic understanding of over 10,000 different hand-deburring tools. Deburring toolsBurrs whilst looking insignificant not only mar the look of the finish on a workpiece but also can compromise the overall performance of the finished component, especially if that part is designed to work in high precision instruments and machinery. This Nova Pneumatic pencil grinder includes a 1/8” collet, 2 wrenches, a hose and different air fittings. The maximum air pressure is 90 PSI so make sure this is suitable for your application needs. Although die grinders can get pretty loud, this pencil air grinder has a smooth and quiet operation.
