Vibratory tumbling media is a type of abrasive media used in a vibratory tumbler, a machine that polishes and deburrs metal parts. The media is typically made of a hard, abrasive material such as ceramic, plastic, or steel, and is used in conjunction with a liquid or a compound to polish or deburr the parts.
The media is placed in the tumbler along with the parts to be polished, and the machine vibrates at a high frequency, causing the media and parts to move around and rub against each other. This process removes surface imperfections and produces a smooth, polished finish on the parts.
Vibratory tumbling media is available in a variety of shapes, sizes, and abrasiveness levels to suit different applications. It is commonly used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and firearms manufacturing to polish and deburr metal parts.
