Metal polishing media, also known as vibratory polishing stones, are specialized products designed to make the polishing process faster, deliver higher-quality finished surfaces, and save time compared to traditional polishing methods.

Overview of metal polishing media

Metal polishing media, often referred to as deburring stones, vibratory deburring media, or tumbling stones, are used in combination with three-dimensional vibratory polishing machines during the metal finishing process.These media are available in a wide variety of sizes and shapes, allowing users to select the most suitable type depending on the material being polished and the specific surface finishing requirements of the workpiece.

Common types of metal polishing media and how to use hem

To classify metal polishing media, many different methods are currently used. However, there are two main methods that craftsmen often apply: based on the purpose of use and based on the material composition.

Classification of Metal Polishing media based on purpose of use

Based on their intended use, metal polishing media can be divided into three main types:

  • Coarse polishing media: Suitable for heavy deburring of workpieces.
  • Medium polishing media: Ideal for both deburring and surface leveling.
  • Fine polishing media: Used for polishing and final surface finishing of products.

Classification of Metal Polishing media by material

Based on the material composition, metal polishing media are divided into two main types: ceramic media and plastic media.

How to use Metal polishing media

Metal polishing media not only play a crucial role in the vibratory grinding and polishing process but also directly determine the brightness, smoothness, and uniformity of the finished metal surface. When properly used, these media significantly enhance cleaning and finishing efficiency while greatly reducing processing time. Selecting the right type of polishing media is the key to optimizing production processes and ensuring high-quality output
