In the trades of stamping and manufacture of metal parts (screws, bolts, etc.) and other fasteners, the drying and polishing stage requires the use of absorbent and abrasive pellets.
According to the equipment used for drying (barrel or vibrator), the size of the parts to be treated and the treatment to be performed, we offer three kinds of vegetable shot:
– sawdust grains
– corn cob pellets
– fruit husk pellets
The absorption of oils, greases and dust is still the main use of sawdust and corn cob. The density and absence of dust of corn-cob pellets make them ideal for use in vibro-abrasive finishing (vibrators).
Their strong power of absorption further enables up to five vibrator passes.
Fruit husk pellets have abrasive characteristics and are valued for deburring parts as well as for descaling boilers.
