Abstract
A rotating tool for simultaneously deburring two surfaces of a workpiece is disclosed including a rotatable shaft having a first end and a second end with a first deburr surface on the first end facing towards the second end and having a first angle. A second deburr surface is formed between the first end and the second end facing towards the first end and having a second angle. The distance between a first mid-point of the first deburr surface and a second mid-point of the second deburr surface is substantially equal to a width of the workpiece.
Claims20
A one-piece, high-speed rotating tool for simultaneously deburring two surfaces of a metal workpiece, the tool comprising:
- a rotatable shaft having a first end and a second end;
- a first deburr surface on the first end, facing towards the second end and having a first angle;
- and
- a second deburr surface formed between the first end and the second end, facing towards the first end having a second angle;
- whereby the distance between a first mid-point of the first deburr surface and a second mid-point of the second deburr surface is substantially equal to a width of the workpiece.
A method of simultaneously deburring two surfaces of a metal workpiece, the method comprising:
- providing the metal workpiece having a width;
- providing a one-piece, high-speed rotating tool for simultaneously deburring two surfaces of the metal workpiece, the one-piece, high-speed rotating tool comprising:
- a rotatable shaft having a first end and a second end;
- a first deburr surface formed on the first end, facing towards the second end and having a first angle;
- and
- a second deburr surface formed between the first end and the second end, facing towards the first end having a second angle;
- whereby the distance between a first mid-point of the first deburr surface and a second mid-point of the second deburr surface is substantially equal to the width of the workpiece;
- rotating the one-piece, high-speed rotating tool;
- simultaneously contacting a top edge of the metal workpiece with the first deburr surface and contacting a bottom edge of the metal workpiece with the second deburr surface, thereby simultaneously removing burrs from the top edge of the metal workpiece and the bottom edge of the metal workpiece.
A one-piece, high-speed rotating tool for simultaneously deburring two surfaces of a metal workpiece, the one-piece, high-speed rotating tool comprising:
- a rotatable shaft having a first end and a second end;
- a first means for deburring on the first end, facing towards the second end and having a first angle;
- and
- a second means for deburring formed between the first end and the second end, facing towards the first end having a second angle;
- whereby the distance between a first mid-point of the first means for deburring and a second mid-point of the second means for deburring is substantially equal to a width of the metal workpiece.
