WIRE BRUSH MACHINE
for Aluminum Sheet Texturing
Dual stainless steel brushes apply a scratch finish texture on aluminum
sheets to produce that "brushed aluminum" look.
SYNONYMS
Aluminum brush texturizer, wire brusher, scratch finisher, scratch
brush, aluminum scratch finish brush machine, or brushed aluminum surface
finisher.
OPERATIONAL DESCRIPTION
The Union Wire Brush Machine is designed to put a scratch finish on
aluminum sheets. The machine incorporates two stainless steel brushes
to obtain the desired brush finish. Along with the appropriate number
of hold-down rolls there is a perforated belt to hold the thin sheets
flat as they pass under each wire brush.
There is also a high-volume blower to pull a vacuum through the perforations
at each brush area. A brush on the offbearing side removes static from
the sheet as it leaves the machine. Each brush is adjustable vertically
to allow for various thicknesses of material.
The brushes are driven by a 10 H.P. motor while the conveyor and vacuum
system are each driven by a 1 H.P. motor.
