Abstract: A finisher arrangement for surface finishing of parts, including a bowl-type centrifugal finishing device for agitating a mixture of parts and treating media within the bowl, and a handler for loading and unloading the parts/media to and from the bowl, respectively. The finishing device and handler are positioned sidewardly adjacent but on opposite sides of a rotary drive unit which defines a transfer horizontal drive axis. Arm linkages couple each of the finishing device and handler to the drive unit so that each is independently vertically swingable about the drive axis into respective loading and unloading positions.

Abstract: A planetary-type deburring arrangement for removing burrs associated with inside and outside edges of a metal workpiece. The deburring arrangement includes a planetary head arrangement having a carier which rotates about a central axis. The carrier mounts thereon at least three rotatable spindles disposed in a generally circular pattern about the central axis, and each spindle mounts thereon an abrasive disc having an end face constructed of an abrasive media for deburring the workpiece. A first drive arrangement causes rotation of the carrier about the central axis. A second drive arrangement, including a planetary arrangement, is coupled to each of the spindles to effect rotation of each spindle individually about its own axis, with at least one of the spindles being rotated in an opposite direction from the other spindles.
