Precision deburring and polishing system

VECTOR

The precision deburring and polishing system. The VECTOR Abrasive Flow Machining (AFM) system is an extremely flexible machine. It is capable of polishing large extrusion and forming dies, deburring and polishing precision parts in small to medium batch quantities.

 

 

 

Machine Specifications

The standard VECTOR Abrasive Flow Machine consists of a machine with touch screen HMI and a hydraulic power unit.

Height fully open
102” (2590 mm)
Height closed
92” (2335 mm)
Width
52.5” (1335 mm)
Depth
42” (1070 mm)
Tabletop height
41” (1040 mm)
Working distance between clamp columns
36” (915 mm)
Estimated weight
4,300 lbs (1955 kg)

 

MEDIA DELIVERY

Media delivery is reciprocating between the top and bottom assemblies. Both assemblies consist of media cylinders, pistons, seals and caps.

HYDRAULIC SPECIFICATIONS

Main components of the hydraulic system are a hydraulic power unit, two media hydraulic cylinders, and two clamp cylinders with an air/ oil pump assist.

Standard Power Unit

Reservoir
20 gal (75,7 l)
Pump capacity @ 1,750 RPM
5 GPM (18,9 L/min)
Pressure
350 – 2500 psi (24,1–172,4 bar)

Clamping Cylinders (Clamping is powered hydraulically)

Bore diameter
5” (127 mm)
Stroke
20” (508 mm)
Max opening
22” (558.8 mm)
Min opening
2” (50.8 mm)

 

ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS

The machine is controlled by a PLC. The operator interface terminal is a touch screen. Standard functions include remote media pressure adjustment, automatic and manual mode, displacement counter, cycle counter, and cycle timer. The machine process parameters are preset via the operator interface terminal and can also be monitored on the terminal once the automatic cycle has been initiated.
