Vibrofinishing
Vibrofinishing is a mechanical/chemical process for the deburring, smoothing, polishing and degreasing of jewels.
During that process parts are submerged in media and compound (specially treated water) within a vibratory finishing machine. The machine vibrates causing the contents to move in a circular motion and the media to grind against the part to get the desired finish.
Our company, Kaplanoglou S.A., supplies its customers with a wide variety of vibrators and consumables meeting the needs of the jewelry sector.
A representative table of our products follows:
