 SPIRATRON ER-SERIES
VIBRATORY FINISHERS
Flexibility: The Spiratron® Extended Range series provides flexible mass
finishing with a high degree of automation and a high degree of process flexibility and
control. At low costs per cubic foot of working capacity.
 Automation is achieved via parts/media separation and optional loading and
unloading systems. The machine flexibly covers the full line of processes including ball
burnishing, deburring, preplate finishing, and washing for a wide range of part sizes
and materials, including ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics, wood, and ceramics.
Improved process control is intrinsic to the structural design and further enhanced by
options such as a Dual Amplitude, programmable control, wrap-around screen decks, and
gate clearing.
Uniformity: The Spiratron ER Series offers lower costs per cubic foot of
working capacity, more uniform processing, and improved feed. These advantages are
achieved due to the advanced structural design and bowl shape, which greatly simplify
the machine while improving its performance and durability. For example, the bowl
supporting the chamber is constructed of certified, pressure-vessel materials, and the
polyurethane chamber wall is 275% thicker in high wear areas than conventional designs.
The bowl has a small rise immediately prior to the discharge gate.
Design Features
- Advanced structural design and bowl shape: Improves Processing efficiency,
durability and machine life. Bowl has a small rise immediately prior to the discharge
gate.
- Certified, pressure-vessel materials used to construct bowl supporting chamber:
Constructed from 3/8" to 9/16", to provide high tensile strength and high yield
strength.
- Polyurethane lining: Improves liner life. 275 percent thicker in high-wear
areas.
- Higher amplitude: Ensures optimum processing capabilities.
- Low profile: Permits convenient access to process controls, media and parts.
- Low power requirements: Reduces costs and increases the working life of the
system. Balanced chamber and angled springs permit optimum energy use. Lining is canted
to improve mass roll and efficiency on larger models.
Standard Operating Features
- Unique cartridge drive system: Minimizes vibration to the motor and maximizes
the working life of the drive system. Designed for easy installation and service. Easy
access to all seals. All seals rotate with shaft, to prolong working life.
- Adjustable, drop-on eccentric weight system: Provides quick, simple vibration
adjustment to optimize processing time and media/parts separation. Weight segments are
located on each end of a vertical shaft. An index plate at the top shaft-end has
numbered holes to permit selection and repeatability of desired settings. No tools are
required for adjustments on standard weight systems.
- Built-in parts/media separation: Provides rapid, reliable separation of media
and processed parts. Separating gate is built into the chamber and is controlled by
manual lever or pneumatic cylinder (which can be timer-operated.) When the separating
gate is raised, the contents of the processing chamber go straight out over the screen
deck. The media drops back into the chamber. And finished parts move to a collection
point or to the next production station.
- Compound flow-through system: Provides automatic mixing and metering of
compound and water to ensure maximum cleanliness of media and parts. System is composed
of and electrically-operated variable-delivery compound pump, which injects the
concentrate into a controlled-flow water line.
- Multiple pop-in drains: Carry away soiled solution and simultaneously remove
debris, including metal chips, and particulate. Interchangeable drains of molded
polyurethane are available in a variety of shapes and sizes to meet specific processing
requirements.
- Manual, lever-operated gate: Allows for batch-type operations where more than
once around processing is desired.
- Quick-change, straight-line screen decks: Permit the widest variety of deck
patterns to meet all separation requirements. Deck materials include woven wire, cast
polyurethane screens or tie rods, plus variations and combinations to meet specific
requirements.
- Continuously-monitored oil recirculation: Ensures that the entire system is
getting oiled. Tied into control panel to prevent start-up without adequate lubrication.
- Compact settling tank: Serves as a solution settling tank for larger
particles. Easy to clean-out. Also serves as a platform to provide easy access to
process settings and amplitude weights.
- Limit switches at all hinged access doors: Automatically shut down machine
when access doors are opened, for operator safety. (Does not apply to the Spiratron ER-2
or Gemini Series.)
- Controls: Include fusible disconnect, 110V. control circuit completely
pre-wired to the machine. Totalizing hour meter. Safety switches on hinged access doors.
Process timers (standard on most models)
