Plastic Abrasive Media
Plastic media are generally used for deburring and polishing ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
They enable gentle and splinter-free vibratory finishing of delicate materials (aluminum, brass, copper, magnesium, zinc, and general die-cast materials). Their low weight and soft binders prevent burrs from being rolled onto the material. Additionally, the temperature in the processing tank influences the finishing process.
Depending on their quality, plastic media can produce bright and matte surfaces, thus ensuring a fine finish.
Advantages:
- Low bulk density
- Gentle and splinter-free processing
- Very suitable for delicate materials
Applications
- Deburring of ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
- Polishing of delicate materials.
- Gentle Processing of aluminum, brass, copper, magnesium, zinc, and die-cast materials.
- Creation of bright or matte surfaces.
- Fine Finish for delicate components.

FAQ
Here you will find answers to your questions
What process media does Eurotec Innovation offer?
Eurotec Innovation offers ceramic tumbling media, plastic tumbling media, drying granulates such as corn cob grit, compounds, flocculants, nut shell grit, special media, and grinding and polishing pastes.
How does Eurotec Innovation select the appropriate process media?
Eurotec Innovation selects process media to match the material, component geometry, desired surface effect, and processing objective.
Can Eurotec Innovation supply process media together with equipment and process design?
Eurotec Innovation offers process media tailored to the respective processing operation and, upon request, combines these with equipment, process development, and personal consultation.
When are plastic abrasive media suitable?
Plastic abrasive media are particularly suitable for non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, zinc, or brass, as well as for deburring and polishing processes.
When are ceramic abrasive media suitable?
Ceramic abrasive media are particularly suitable for harder materials like steel or stainless steel and are used for deburring and polishing.
What are compounds and flocculants used for?
Compounds and flocculants chemically support the grinding process and, in recirculating water systems, assist in the removal of abrasive particles and dirt. Additionally, compounds can have a brightening effect or, for example, corrosion protection properties.
What role do drying granules play in the process?
Drying granules, such as corn or walnut granules, are used for component drying and sometimes also for polishing.
Does Eurotec Innovation offer assistance with selection?
