Top-notch quality can only be achieved with a deburring machine.
„ARKU had us fully prepared for the expansion of our machine capabilities.“
- Daniel Götze, Product Manager Pre-fabrication at Salzgitter Mannesmann Stahlhandel in Zeithain
Deburring prior to leveling is a must
Nowadays, deburred sheet metal parts are a standard when it comes to customer requirements. But at SMSD there was more: In an important framework agreement, the steel trader had promised the customer specific flatness. For that, the metal parts require leveling. However, cutting thick metal requires a lot of energy. It also means that during the cutting process, large burrs are formed. These protrusions, if they remain on the workpiece, can damage the leveling rollers of the leveling machines. Deburring the metal parts before leveling becomes thus indispensable. Beforehand, SMSD were still manually deburring flame cut parts with angle grinders.
Consultation and tests are part of ARKU
Before we purchased from ARKU, we received a comprehensive consultation including a comprehensive test of our production materials in the Baden-Baden Leveling and Deburring Center. Finally, the decision was made: “The EdgeBreaker® 4000 met our expectations. With this system, we are able to process different metal sheets reliably and with consistently high quality,” says Götze.
These thick metal sheets are no problem for the ARKU system at all. The EdgeBreaker® 4000 reliably deburrs and rounds precisely such workpieces thanks to the oscillating grinding drum – on both sides in just a single pass. The machine also masters stubborn burrs and slag, in particular those that are created by thermal and plasma cutters.
