While we don't provide a complete finishing service for laser-cut profiles, we do offer rumbling for stainless steel, brass, and copper components, as long as they meet the appropriate size requirements. Our prices begin at £75.00 plus VAT.
Vibratory batch finishing, sometimes referred to as rumbling, is a commonly used method for deburring and finishing metal parts. It is a gentler process compared to other deburring methods, such as grinding or sanding, but can be effective in removing imperfections like burrs and sharp edges. It is a highly versatile and efficient method of finishing, where a consistent uniform finish and a slightly rounded broken edge is desired.
The process of vibratory finishing involves placing a batch of laser cut profiles or machined metal components in a vibratory bowl or tub, along with a mixture of abrasive media and a liquid compound. The bowl is then set in motion, causing the media to rub against the parts, resulting in the desired surface finish. The speed and intensity of the vibrations can be adjusted to suit the specific requirements of the parts being finished. The process is particularly suitable for items such as keyrings, bracketry, car parts, marine and architectural fixtures and fittings, medals, tools and more.
