The VECTOR Abrasive Flow Machining (AFM) system is capable of polishing and deburring precision parts in small to high volume batch quantities for a wide range of application in a reasonable space.
No question, by end of 2020, 400+ VECTOR machines in 22 countries around the world, VECTOR is the best seller in his category.
Benefit now from VECTOR legacy product latest iteration.
The ability to control flow rate, temperature and viscosity also contributes to improving the life span of the abrasive media.
Controlling the temperature of the abrasive media gives a more consistent machining rate.
State-of-the-art control system for operation, monitoring, setup and maintenance with 12” Touch screen interface. Enables to save multiple processing parameters as required for ease of use and quick recall in the manufacture of multiple customer parts.
Swing arms, hydraulic or manual ones, manual tooling carts, these are option that helps with heavy fixture handling.
VECTOR is used for polishing, deburring, micro-deburring and raduising applications.
Polishing extrusion dies for aluminum or plastic profiles is certainly the best-known application using VECTOR’s capabilities.
But that’s not all: VECTOR is capable of AFM mass volume production, such as for solenoid valves in the fuel systems industry, processing millions of parts a year in an almost fully automated plant in combination with a blow station and cleaning unit.
This is why VECTOR is used in a wide range of industries, including aerospace, semiconductors, medicine, energy and fuel systems.
The VECTOR series abrasive flow machine offers a wide range of processing capacities, with a selection of backing roll diameters ranging from full-pressure 100 mm models to lower-pressure 300 mm versions.
As we use support cylinder kits, customers can easily reconfigure their support size at a later date, if required.
The comfortable workspace has an opening of 495 mm, a width of 900 mm and a depth of 500 mm, while the table height is 1050 mm. For ease of operation, four rails are mounted in the tabletop. It make easier to slide fixture in and out.
