Abstract: A brush deburring machine includes upper and lower synchronized dogged conveyors that translate workpieces between a pair of cylindrical wire brushes to remove burrs from the ends of the workpieces. A first support surface is defined on each of the dogs of the upper conveyor, and a second support surface is defined on each of the dogs of the lower conveyor. Workpieces are retained between the first and second support surfaces to prevent the workpieces from becoming unstable and shifting diagonally between the wire brushes, yet are permitted to rotate with respect to the first and second support surfaces to cause the entire circumference of the ends of the workpieces to be deburred.

Abstract: A dedimpler apparatus is provided in which tubes are serially introduced into a dedimpler machine which removes constrictions or dimples from the tube wall at the cut ends thereof to form cylindrically true ends, and then the tubes are automatically transferred to a deburring machine for the removal of burrs from such cut ends. In the dedimpler machine, the tubes are advanced to a dedimpler station where a pair of dedimpler plugs are moved by a cam arrangement into opposite ends of the tube in a precisely timed, synchronized motion to force the tube wall against cooperating press rollers and thus remove constrictions or dimples from the tube ends. The dedimpled tubes are then automatically conveyed to the deburring machine.

Abstract: A combination dedimpler and deburring apparatus is provided in which tubes are serially introduced into a dedimpler machine which removes constrictions or dimples from the tube wall at the cut ends thereof to form cylindrically true ends, and then the tubes are automatically transferred to a deburring machine for the removal of burrs from such cut ends.

The dedimpled tubes are then automatically conveyed to the deburring machine having laterally spaced brush heads which carry deburring brushes operative to remove burrs from the tube ends.
