Advantages of thermal deburring...
uniqe ability to remove ALL potentially loose burrs
(if it doesn't come off in the explosion it won't come off in service!)
no metal particle or contaminants left
no burrs missed
able to reach inaccessible burrs
no debris left
does not damage or score critical surfaces
does not affect surface of component
no effect on metallurgy
used as a pretreatment to heat treatment and finishings
no damage to fine threads (as long as the burrs are smaller!)
quick – 20 milliseconds!
very short lead times / machine set up
low tool and set up costs
low component process costs
DISADVANTAGES
max size of 250mm diameter and 330mm high (as it needs to fit in our largest chamber)
