Metal burr extending beyond the edge of the cut piece, view on the cut face (top) and from the bottom (bottom) A burr is a raised edge or small piece of material that remains attached to a workpiece after a modification process. [1] It is usually an unwanted piece of material and is removed with a deburring tool in a process called deburring.
These are often used in CNC machining centers for removing burrs (the small flakes of metal) after a machining process. To achieve optimal surface speed and cutting conditions, burrs are rapidly rotated at high speeds, often in the range of thousands or tens of thousands of RPM , which is typically the maximum speed supported by a given spindle.
Because the material is so tightly held and controlled in this setup, part flatness remains very true, distortion is nearly eliminated, and edge burr is minimal. Clearances between the die and punch are generally around 1% of the cut material thickness, which typically varies between 0.5–13 mm (0.020–0.512 in). [ 8 ]
Burr mill or burr grinder, a mill using burrs to crush the material, usually manufactured for a single purpose such as coffee beans, dried peppercorns, coarse salt, spices, or poppy seeds; Coffee grinder; Conical mill (or conical screen mill) Cutting mill, a device commonly used in laboratories for the preliminary size reduction of materials
A burr mill, or burr grinder, is a mill used to grind hard, small food products between two revolving abrasive surfaces separated by a distance usually set by the user. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] When the two surfaces are set far apart, the resulting ground material is coarser, and when the two surfaces are set closer together, the resulting ground material ...
Abrasive flow machining (AFM), also known as abrasive flow deburring [1] or extrude honing, [2] is an interior surface finishing process characterized by flowing an abrasive-laden fluid through a workpiece. [1] [3] [2] This fluid is typically very viscous, having the consistency of putty, [2] [3] or dough. [1]
Shearing, also known as die cutting, [1] is a process that cuts stock without the formation of chips or the use of burning or melting. Strictly speaking, if the cutting blades are straight the process is called shearing; if the cutting blades are curved then they are shearing-type operations. [2]
Electrochemical grinding is often used for hard materials where conventional machining is difficult and time-consuming, such as stainless steel and some exotic metals. For materials with hardness greater than 65 HRC, ECG can have a material removal rate 10 times that of conventional machining.
