| Construction Details |
The Grav-i-Flo® C-4-806 Gyra Finish Machine
consists of a rotating turret on which four hexagonal, polyurethane
barrels are mounted. As the turret rotates, the barrels turn in the
opposite direction. This unique motion develops strong centrifugal
force in each barrel, resulting in an extremely high rate of work,
due to the "weight increase" of the tumbling mass.
The machine is of heavy construction to withstand the high "g" forces
generated. Entire barrels are molded of polyurethane and are inserted
into aluminum supporting cradles equipped with quick acting locks. For
maximum utilization of production time the operator may unload and
reload an extra set of four barrels while the machine is operating.

| Applications |
The Grav-i-Flo® C-4-806 Gyra Finish Machine
can be used for wet or dry processing with a variety of medias and
compounds. Results range from the finest of finishes on jewelry and
high quality machined parts to very aggressive deburring. The "g"
forces produced in this machine result in less part on part impingement
than often encountered in tumbling barrels or vibratory equipment.
Parts can be finished or deburred more than twenty times faster than
a conventional tumbling barrel and about eight times faster than
vibratory finishing equipment.
Applications vary from small and miniature pieces to larger parts,
that would otherwise require extensive hand finishing. Very small
abrasive medias that do not work well in tumbling barrels or vibratory
machines, because of the very slow cut or finish, are very well suited
for the Gyra machine.
An optional worktable is available to assist the operator with the
separation of parts and media.
