Vapormatt Puma + Vertical (with satellites) for automatically finishing round shank tools…

Puma + Vertical turntable with 42 satellites
We’ve just finished shooting a video of our automatic Puma + wet blasting machine. This particular machine is configured with 42 satellites for the rapid finishing of round shank tools like end mills, drill bits and taps.

Round shank tools can range from 3mm (0.12”) to 25.4mm (1”) diameter and up to a length of 300mm (12”).

Wet blasting applications the Puma + Vertical can perform include…

- Edge honing to prevent damage to the cutting-edge
- Edge honing to produce the ideal ‘chip’
- Creating a highly reactive surface for coatings
- Removal of coating imperfections
- Peening coatings for increased durability

Keep an eye on our LinkedIn and Facebook pages for the final video.
