New deburr for bent tubes and mitre cuts

Kent Corporation, USA, has launched a new automated deburring machine for bent tubes and mitre cut ends. The Rotoburr L machine has a wide face wire brush that spins while the head rotates. This double action offers quick and consistent deburring of the part without having to hold or rotate the part. The part is pneumatically clamped into a fixture, and is then automatically

indexed in front of the brush face via an operator-friendly push button station. The Rotoburr L is suitable for cell type operation and can be automatically loaded via arobot. The machine can handle a wide range of products up to 5" OD, and can be supplied with an optional variable speed brush head to optimise brushing results on ferrous or non-ferrous material.

Volume production of bar or tubular components Sinico, Italy, is well established in the volume production areas of automotive components, heavy duty construction equipment, building, domestic appliance components and general engineering. Precision cutting to length of solid bar and tube, plus simultaneous double-end multi- operation machining, can be achieved using a range of Sinico CNC machines. This range provides capacities from 5mm to 120mm diameter and length ranges from 20mm to 800mm. Bar and tube in 4m, 6m, 8m or 9m lengths can be loaded into the magazine that feeds the material automatically into the first stage of precision cutting to length by circular HSS or tungsten carbide blades. The cut piece is automatically transferred by a high-speed rotary indexing turret to the simultaneous double-end machining operations, which can range from a basic face and chamfer to turn, bore, drill, tap and threading operations. Tooling is provided by the Sinico ‘quick change’ system. CNC machine settings can be made through the Siemens touch-screen. Sinico SpA – Italy
