Sometimes it makes sense to house your metal finishing process within your operation. Sometimes, it makes sense to outsource it to trusted specialists. If you’re looking to save time, money, and hassle, you might want to look into your options for metal finishing process outsourcing.

At Rodeco Metal Finishing, we understand that choosing the right finishing equipment is essential to achieving the best results for your parts. In this blog, we’ll walk you through the key differences between three popular finishing machine styles: vibratory bowl finishers, vibratory tub finishers, and centrifugal finishing systems. Each machine type offers unique advantages depending on the specific needs of your production process, such as part size, material, and the desired finish.

Vibratory finishing is a versatile process used to remove burrs, break sharp edges, prepare surfaces for coating, clean, polish, and enhance the overall quality of metal and plastic parts. Whether you’re looking for a smoother finish, a refined surface finish, or an aggressive material removal solution, selecting the right finishing media, compound, and finishing equipment is essential to achieving optimal results.
