Precise drag finishing for defined edges, high-quality surfaces and reproducible processing.

Precision Finishing for Demanding Components: When high demands are placed on surface quality and defined edges, drag finishing offers a precise method for mechanical surface treatment. In drag finishing, workpieces are moved through an abrasive or polishing medium in a controlled manner. This allows for surface treatment, edge rounding, burr removal, and – depending on the material, initial condition, and desired result – achieving various surface qualities. MWIB uses this process particularly for high-quality and geometrically complex components. Unlike conventional vibratory finishing, the workpieces can be held individually. This prevents uncontrolled contact between the components – a significant advantage for sensitive workpieces and demanding surface finish requirements. Precisely calibrated process parameters ensure that the treatment is reproducibly tailored to the specific task. Typical applications include: • Deburring and rounding edges • Smoothing and refining surfaces • Removing machining marks • Preparation for subsequent coating or finishing processes • Finishing high-quality precision components. The process is suitable for various metallic materials and is aimed at companies in mechanical engineering, medical technology, optics, precision mechanics, and mechatronics, among others. At MWIB, we don't just focus on the individual processing step. Upon request, further processes such as coating, painting, laser marking, engraving, or printing can follow.
