Rust Issue on Vibrofinishing 4

[ajxxx]

we have seen a lot of rejection for "in line" rusting during our vibro finish processes. This especially becomes the case when there is a short power failure and the parts in the vibrators become extremely prone to rust...we do have power backup but we do see a lot of rejects ...any expert on vibro finishing with recommendations...our process is very suspect and i would be willing to doubt every process paramater.

I recommend that you take a look at the Mechanical Finishing section at PFOnline, and also contact Steve Marcus of The Markee Corporation. There is a lot of good information available from both sources:

Use oil in your vibrofinisher.

I would never put oil in any type finisher with porous media unless you want toss out the media. Here are two products that are used to prevent flash rust on ferrous parts that are to be coated of painted.
