LISSMAC Corporation Highlights SBM-L G1S2 Grinding and Deburring Machine for Aerospace Applications

Ideal for deburring and edge rounding both sides of workpieces in a single pass-
LISSMAC Corporation, serving the North American market with metal processing and construction technology solutions, announces the SBM-L G1S2 grinding and deburring machines for aerospace applications, developed for deburring and edge rounding of workpieces in a single pass. A process designed and brought to the market by LISSMAC. The SBM-L G1S2 is ideal for workpieces made of multiple material types, including stainless steel, steel, aluminum or non-ferrous metal. Double-sided sheet metal processing and edge rounding in one operation provides time savings of up to 60 percent.

The versatile LISSMAC machines are used for deburring, edge rounding, and surface finishing sheet metal parts. The LISSMAC product line can be used for a wide variety of aerospace applications including parts such as structural components, flat parts, interior components, and composite materials. This is a critical process in the aerospace industry to provide the utmost safety and longevity of components. Parts such as wings, tail assemblies, turbine blades, seating frames, and other interior structures are deburred and edge-rounded with precision in order to enhance performance, safety, and reliability of both internal and external components of the aircraft, ensuring they meet stringent industry standards and regulations.

The L machine is equipped with three units each on the top and bottom. Workpiece processing can be done either on the upper side, the lower side or on both sides. The SBM-L G1S2 can be easily connected to automation solutions or integrated into production lines. The machine concept ensures efficient and repeatable operation without pollution, dust, and noise.

With top and bottom processing in a single pass there is no need to flip parts, increasing processing efficiency. Set up efficiency is also increased by the ability to save programs. With the optional barcode reader, operators can scan a barcode for programming setup, increasing efficiency even further. Controllers for motorized transport tables are available to help process larger parts, making loading and unloading more efficient.

Automatic wear compensation results in less manual intervention and adjustments, offering less wear as well as savings on consumables. With a 59-inch working width, the SBM-L G1S2 facilitates high volume production because multiple parts can be staggered on the infeed conveyor table. It can process parts with a minimum part size of 6-inches long by 2-inches wide and can process coated and galvanized parts, leaving surface coating intact.
