DF Series

Drag Finishing

DRAG FINISHING UNITS - DF SERIES

Custom-designed work piece holders make a significant contribution to the perfect processing results obtained by the DF series. They also ensure that the work pieces are mounted as quickly and efficiently as possible and considerably simplify batch processing. In recent years, OTEC has designed over 100 different types of holder. Furthermore, the process container features a water-cooling system that keeps the polishing granulates at a constantly low temperature. This considerably extends the life of the process medium and ensures constant process quality, even at consistently high processing speeds.

Absolute reliability
  • Consistent use of only the best materials and components ensures trouble-free operation and long service life.
Maximum cost-effectiveness
  • Comparatively low capital investment coupled with the potential for very high cost savings in terms of processing times make the DF series an extremely cost-effective solution.
Perfect finishing results
  • Deburring, grinding or high-luster finish in a quality otherwise only obtained through hand polishing.
Short processing time
  • In many cases, perfect surfaces can be obtained in just a few minutes.

DF 10

Holder

INDEPENDENTLY DRIVEN TOOL HOLDERS

With this type of holder specially developed for finishing tools, each work piece rotates individually on its own axis in addition to the general rotation. This produces a uniform surface finish in even shorter processing times. It also achieves excellent smoothing of the flutes of cutting tools.

QUICK TOOL CHANGER

This system enables tools such as drills and burs to be changed in seconds by means of a lever.

Quick Change Holder
ANGLED HOLDER

Especially suitable for finishing end faces and forging dies.

Miscellaneous

IMMERSION DEPTH CONTROL

For controlling the depth to which the work pieces are immersed in the granulate. Two photoelectric barriers are used to identify the tip of the work pieces when they are immersed in the medium. From this, the control system then calculates the maximum possible immersion depth. The immersion depth of the work pieces in the process container is displayed for any defined level of medium. The immersion depth of the work pieces can be preselected for best results.
