Tag: edge burrs

Deburring is a secondary operation of the machining process that improves the final quality of a product by removing raised edges and unwanted chunks of material, known as burrs, left over from the initial machining process . Burrs are produced by shearing, bending, cutting, perforating and compressing material. These occur mainly on soft and malleable materials. Deburring machines are used to remove burrs by mechanical, electrochemical and thermal methods.
