W-5 Basic Operation

The MFI W-5 Tub operates using an electric motor to drive an unbalanced shaft, which creates a powerful vibratory action in the polyurethane-lined tub. Inside the tub, abrasive or non-abrasive media rolls in a large mass, providing a gentle yet thorough finish on your parts. Simply drop your unfinished parts into the mass and let the W-5 Tub do the rest. After a specified amount of time, your parts will be removed and left smoothed and free of sharp edges and burrs.
