HOW TO DOMINATE YOUR NICHE WITH THE BEST QUALITY, SCHEDULE AND COST WHEN DEPLOYING THIS COOLANT DELIVERY SYSTEM FOR DRILLING

Often, plasma cutting is the first process deployed to fabricate steel into the variety of products we see used in the steel industry. Every plasma & oxy-cutting machine creates a dross on the underside of the plate from the thermal cutting process that needs to be removed before the steel can be used.

Any steel serviced centre supplying price-sensitive plasma cutting/drilling parts to a competitive market understands the man-hours required to deburr parts before these parts are fabricated, welded, painted or galvanised. The market requires a steel service centre to deburr plasma/oxy cut parts so they pass a client’s QA/QC standard. All the parts need to be deburred for safety to avoid any injuries when handling the plasma or oxy cut parts.

Any steel service centre is aware of the space required for deburring bays, the amount of deburring discs and man-hours that are allocated every year to deburr each part. When a steel service centre or fabricator has a requirement to deburr and improve a delivery schedule they can discuss, with us, our portfolio of automated deburring machines.

Plasma cutting machines that have high pressure through spindle coolant or flood coolant will create challenges for automating deburring. Unless the parts are dry and clean they may not be suitable to be run through a deburring machine. It will be unlikely that a machine tool builder or agent will allow your business to return any deburring machine after making an incorrect purchasing decision. It is worth remembering that you do not put lubricant on a file!
