Smoothing | Polishing – stream finishing | Disc Finishing
Ultra-smooth surfaces on assemblies such as compressors and gearboxes are indispensable for efficient engine operation. Our customised stream finishing (SF) and disc finishing (CF) processes smooth and polish to Ra 0.01.
With process speeds up to 24 times faster than hard-to-control, chemically accelerated mass finishing, OTEC machines rise to many a challenge not only more quickly but also at lower cost and with greater process reliability. What’s more, they do away with expensive, polluting, dangerous acids and materials.
In industrial manufacturing processes for compressor blades, vanes and blisks, our customers obtain roughnesses of ~Ra 0.15 with systems tailored to their requirements.
Smooth tooth flanks and rounded tip edges boost gearbox efficiency by minimising friction and Rpk values. Another specific of the stream finishing process is that it produces lubrication valleys, significantly reducing the risk of oil film breakage – and therefore wear – to guarantee safe operation. Our stream finishing process obtains roughnesses as low as Ra 0.07 µm on high-grade hardened gears.
