Controlling dust during the deburring process of sawcut material blanks, and in process machining of parts between operations can be a real pain in the butt as we all know!

For years we have lived with the mess and the constant cleanup that follows every job being deburred in this manner.


FINALLY!!   I have purchased a dust collection system that we are in the process of installing............to be continued............


Here's our deburring bench.  

From left to right,

4" x 36" Horizontal belt sander used for deburring sawcut blanks before going into the machining centers.

1" x 30" Vertical belt sander for various small part deburring.

8" Bench Grinder - Heavy Duty Braided Wire Wheel on one side for steel, and medium grit snagging wheel on the other.

.6 Cubic Foot Capacity Vibratory Tumbler with Ceramic Media for light to medium deburring and polishing.

.2 Cubic Foot Capacity Vibratory Tumbler with Plastic Media for light deburring and polishing.

4" x 36" Horizontal belt sander with scotch brite deburring belt for deburring and polishing.

As you can see the bench gets quite dusty and gets covered in short order.






So here was my project a couple days ago.  A new dust collection system.





Now that's it's all together and running successfully, time for the tubing to be rigged up to the machines.
