SMALL PARTS. HIGH STANDARDS.

Small burrs.
Big difference.

Bring a better finish to your precision parts. Magnetic pin deburring reaches intricate features, removes light burrs and helps reduce time spent finishing by hand.

01 / THE PROCESS

A small pin.
A smarter finish.

Magnetic deburring uses moving pin media to work around your components — including accessible features that are difficult to finish by hand.

01

Load your components

Parts, selected stainless steel pins and the recommended liquid compound are placed in a processing container.

02

Let the field do the work

A rotating magnetic field drives the pins through the batch. Their contact with the parts removes light burrs and refines surfaces.

03

Separate. Inspect. Repeat.

Separate the media, rinse and dry the components, then check the finish against your drawing and acceptance criteria.

The right process starts with your part. Material, burr size, feature access and media selection all affect the result. A representative trial establishes a suitable process.

02 / APPLICATIONS

A BETTER-INFORMED DECISION

Is magnetic deburring
right for your parts?

The best finishing method depends on the job. Start with a conversation about what you need to remove — and what you need to preserve.

04 / GOOD QUESTIONS

The finer details.

Still weighing up your process?
Let’s talk it through ↗

What is magnetic pin deburring?

It is a batch finishing process in which a moving magnetic field drives small steel pins against component surfaces. It is used to remove light burrs and improve the finish of suitable parts.

Can it reach internal holes and threads?

Potentially, where the selected pins can enter, move through and leave the feature. Blind holes and intersecting passages need trial inspection for burr removal and retained media.

Which materials can be processed?

Aluminium, brass and copper are common candidates. Stainless steels and other alloys need assessment by exact grade and magnetic behaviour. Share the material specification when you enquire.

Will it change dimensions or round sharp edges?

Any contacting finishing process can affect an edge or surface. Agree critical dimensions, edge limits and roughness requirements before the trial, then measure the results.

How long does a cycle take?

There is no single cycle time for every component. Burr size, material, pin selection and batch loading all matter. Include loading, separation, rinsing, drying and inspection when comparing total processing time.

What should I send for an assessment?

Start with the material grade, approximate dimensions, batch quantity, burr location and required finish. We can then discuss suitable samples and arrange how to share drawings.
