Nylon abrasive filament (NAF) brushes solve many deburring, edge radiusing and finishing problems. Their compliancy and filamentary nature accommodate part contours, prevent damage to value added components, and make them ideal candidates for robotic and automated work stations. These brushes replace tedious hand operations, provide consistent quality, improve productivity, shorten cycle times, improve part finishes, generate precise edge radii, and lower finishing costs. This paper discusses guidelines to engineering automated deburring solutions using NAF brushes. Applications include blanked steel components, carbide inserts, aluminum aircraft parts, and automotive components such as camshafts, cylinder heads, wheel rims, and transmission housings and valve bodies.
