According to Hardwood Line Mfg., battery-operated barrel engineering begins with understanding weight load, fill volume, speed and duration of time. The advantages of battery barrels include cordless and shockless operation, the ability to use them on rack lines, variable speed control, voltage-protected motors that don’t burn out and lower operating cost. In addition, the light flashes when batteries need recharging. Hardwood Line Mfg. also offers tank-driven, motorized, black-oxide, phosphate and exotic barrel designs, as well as tanks and accessories.

Calculating Applied Media Force During Vibratory Finishing
What appear to be identically set-up vibratory bowls will finish identical loads of parts in varying time cycles. This paper offers a new technique to better predict what the operator will produce, by measuring the force applied to the parts. It is the efficiency of that force which controls the efficiency and speed of the refinement cycle.

Hexavalent-Chromium-Free Aluminum Sacrificial Paint Validation
Hexavalent chromium is a known carcinogen, repro-toxin and mutagen. Its elimination is of high importance to the aerospace industry, which has struggled to find high performing alternatives. Legacy aluminum sacrificial paints have traditionally utilized hexavalent chromium to prevent corrosion and coatings which are equal to or better than have been difficult. This second of two papers discusses the hexavalent-chromium-free process from the user point-of-view in terms of the process validation work by Rolls Royce Corporation.
