The abrasive ROTO-FORM® plastic media is ideal for finishing processes such as polishing and deburring.
Its primary function is to enhance the final surface finish of parts while separating them during processing to prevent damage. Its lightweight composition makes it ideal for achieving high-precision results on sensitive surfaces.
One of the advantages of plastic media is that, even in larger sizes, it can be used without damaging parts, reducing media lodging and part impingement. This ensures continuous workflow and greater production efficiency. Its low density makes it ideal for protecting delicate components.
This media is known for its slow, controlled cutting action, delivering a smoother and more uniform final finish. It is the preferred choice when a refined surface is required prior to subsequent finishing operations.
