7
in concentrations up to 8 ounces per gallon of water; used as such it provides superior rust retardation. For special
problems with rust or other staining consult with your metals supplier, or Burr King Manufacturing.
3. When de-scaling steel (i.e.) use a de-scaling agent such as
BKD80
. This compound is used in place of other soaps and
mixed in ratios from 3 to 6 ounces/gallon of water. Following processing neutralize the parts by dipping them in a rich
solution of
AR60, OR RUSTX100
soap (6-ounces/gallon water) and then dry the parts.
BKD80 is corrosive, wear
appropriate protective gear for the eyes, hands, and other body tissues.
3. Many materials may be brought to a fine, lustrous, low RMS finish by using non-abrasive ceramic polishing media
together with a burnishing compound metered with the water. Follow the burnishing compound manufacturer's
instructions as to concentration, etc.. Clean and dry your parts as described above immediately after processing.
4. Many materials may be polished to a high luster using special media such as walnut shell, corncob, etc. Typically, these
types of media are used dry, without the use fluids. If you wish to use dry process media do not use the liquid delivery
system. It will also be necessary to plug the outlet drain of your VibraKING chamber to prevent the media from escaping
out the outlet. This can be done using common plumbing devices available at ordinary hardware stores, or from Burr King
Manufacturing.
Never operate the liquid pump dry. Doing so may damage the pump.
Units equipped with process timers
Units equipped with process timers provide for selection and control of
processing time without intervention by the operator except for selecting
processing time and pressing the start button control. At conclusion of the
selected time period the machine and the liquid pump will stop operation. The
timers use high quality electronics that will handle the high surge currents
required by induction motors when starting. The process time, time units, and
time scale can be selected or be reset anytime that the unit is not operating.
Proper operation of the timer requires that the “MODE” control be in the A
position. All functions of the timer are selectable on the outside of the timer
module by using a small philips screwdriver to rotate the selector. The face of
the timer control device will show the selected parameters as the screwdriver
is rotated.
Older units with prior serial numbers require the complete removal of
electrical power in order to reset the timer. Also prior serial number units
require that the “MODE” selection be SF or PO.
Tips for optimizing your vibratory process results
It is impossible to anticipate all possible combinations of materials, shapes, media, and compounds that customers may
use in this equipment. It is therefore, not possible to provide specific directions for media selection, compounds, process
times, etc. There are, however, general guidelines that will help to target the optimum process. These include:
•
Select your media and compounds after consulting with the Burr King factory, a qualified media supply
house, or your Burr King distributor. See the previous section on using fluids and compounds.
•
Clean your equipment regularly. This will help in keeping your processed parts free of stains, dust, etc.
•
Use fresh fluids and change them often.
•
Clean and rinse parts quickly after processing. Non ferrous parts may stain if not cleaned and dried properly.
Ferrous parts may rust. There are compound additives that will help in removing and/or preventing part
staining.
•
Media wears out in time. The longer media is used the less is its cutting power. This “wearing out” is akin to
the exhaustion of life encountered with an abrasive belt, or wheel. Softer materials such as aluminum tend to
clog the media, harder materials tend to wear the surface of the media. The use of fluids will help to optimize
your results. Burr King recommends that you establish a regular schedule for changing and discarding your
media. You will gain knowledge regarding process times, media life, etc.. Keeping records of your process
variables will help you optimize your process.
