Almco's Long-Radius Round-Bowl Machines Now Available as Basic Models with Possible Add-Ons


ALBERT LEA, Minnesota (September 7, 2005) - The five models of long-radius machines in the broad line of round-bowl vibratory finishing equipment from ALMCO, Inc., are now available as basic units with an option to add features previously included as standard.

The now-optional features include automatic separation of parts from the finishing media; automatic lubrication of the vibratory bearings; and a variable speed drive. While important to many buyers of round-bowl machines, the features can be added individually or later by others who prefer manual separation, no self-lubrication and constant speed, the company notes.

ALMCO's long-radius design allows once-around deburring of parts during a longer cycle, which is especially desirable in manufacturing cells requiring close coordination of all operations. Importantly, the parts tend to stay submerged in the finishing media for a longer period, which more deburring action and less likelihood of having to send parts with extremely tough burrs through the system a second time.

The company's five long-radius models, with tub capacities of 5, 9, 16, 25 and 40 cubic feet, are suited to both batch and individual parts finishing. They have a 1-inch-thick urethane lining for protection of parts in the abrasive media, variable time cycles of 5 to 15 minutes, and are compact in design to reduce floor-space requirements.

For further information about "LR Series" models and their benefits, contact ALMCO, Inc., 507 West Front Street, Albert Lea, Minnesota 56007, phone 1-800-521-2740, or visit the company on the Internet at www.almcoinc.com. ALMCO is the world's largest manufacturer of metal finishing and deburring equipment, as well as parts cleaning and liquid filtration systems, which are sold through an international network of independent distributors, sales representatives and ALMCO region managers.
