Technology & Products
Key Products
High-energy centrifugal barrel finishing machines (incl. compact HZ-6), centrifugal disc finishers, vibratory tubs and bowls, finishing media/compounds, and custom-engineered solutions for deburring, polishing, and deflashing 3D printed parts across aerospace, medical, firearms, dental, and jewelry.
Technological Advantage
VERIFIED: Machines achieve 30-minute time savings per 3D printed part vs. manual deburring (per 3D Logics case study). DEFENSIBLE: Process expertise and custom engineering create switching costs.
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Reduces deburring time for 3D printed parts by 30 minutes per part while achieving mirror finishes, enabling faster production cycles and higher-quality end-use components.
How They Differentiate
Specializes in high-energy centrifugal systems (12x G-force) vs. competitors' standard vibratory equipment; offers custom engineering for AM parts vs. off-the-shelf solutions; in-house media production reduces supply chain dependencies.
