The document describes the centrifugal iso-finishing process, which enhances part surfaces through high g-force media interaction, achieving isotropic finishes significantly faster than conventional methods. This technique is applicable to a variety of industrial components, including aircraft engine parts and medical devices, offering benefits such as improved performance and extended service life. For those interested, options for free sample finishing and contract services are provided, along with contact information for inquiries.

1. Diagram above illustrates
centrifugal iso-finish pro-
cessing with barrel rotation
and counter opposing turret
rotation used to develop high
G force media interaction with
part surfaces. This can be
used to develop isotropic
edge and surface finish 10
times faster than convention-
al finishing methods.
Centrifugal iso-finishing can be per-
formed on industrial parts with units
such as this HZ-160 model Centrifu-
gal Iso-Finishing machine shown
above.
More than just deburring, part per-
formance improvement in many
components can be enhanced as
well as service life extension. Pre-
vent premature fatigue failure, re-
duce friction, enhance lubricant re-
tention. This method is used on air-
craft engine blades and vanes, per-
formance motor-sports drive train
components, medical devices and
many other critical parts.
(Above) Centrifugal Iso-finishing
has successfully been used to de-
velop superior surface and edge
finishes on numerous manufactured
and 3D printed components both
large and small.

Process Development
Gregg Meyer, CNC Production Supervisor at MacKay Manufacturing se-
lects tooling for initial life extension tests. New tools will be processed with
centrifugal finishing processes. A comparative evaluation will be made be-
tween tools edge and surface finished and tools as received by the manufac-
turer to determine service life improvements.
