Deburring

​Of all the applications in the vibratory finishing process, deburring is by far the most widespread. To accomplish this, a mild compound with a neutral pH of around 7.0 is typically used in conjunction with a high-quality ceramic media that can perform a wide variety of deburring tasks.

For mild steel stamping parts, deburring can be achieved with ceramic media in a relatively short amount of time - usually between 30 to 60 minutes. On the other hand, aluminum die-casting parts require a gentler touch and can be deburred using plastic media over a period of 1 to 2 hours.

When it comes to the deburring process in vibratory finishing, the compound used serves a dual purpose: not only does it remove burrs and imperfections from the surface of the part, but it also helps to clean off any residual machining oil or lubricant that may be present.

This can be important in cases where the parts will be assembled or handled, as a neat and clean surface is necessary to ensure proper fit and function. By taking advantage of the deburring process in vibratory finishing, manufacturers can achieve a high-quality surface finish that is both functional and visually appealing.

​St Neots /sɛnʔ ˈniːəts/[b] is a town and civil parish in the Huntingdonshire District of the county of Cambridgeshire, England, approximately 50 miles (80 km) north of central London. The town straddles the River Great Ouse and is served by a railway station on the East Coast Main Line. It is 14 miles (23 km) west of Cambridge, to which it is linked by the A428 arterial road. It is the largest town in Cambridgeshire and had a population of 30,811 in the 2011 census.[c]

The town is named after the Cornish monk Saint Neot, whose bones were moved to the Priory here from the hamlet of St Neot on Bodmin Moor in around 980 AD. Pilgrimage to the priory church and parish church brought prosperity to the settlement and the town was granted a market charter in 1130. In the 18th and 19th centuries the town enjoyed further prosperity through corn milling, brewing, stagecoach traffic and railways.

After the Second World War the town and its industry were chosen for rapid growth as London councils paid for new housing to be built to rehouse families from London. The first London overspill housing was completed in the early 1960s and new housing has continued at a slightly lower rate such that the population, including the areas transferred from Bedfordshire, is approximately four times that of the 1920s.
