MEDIUM SINGLE BARREL is a compact barrelling and surface finishing machine for acetate eyewear frames, temples and similar precision components. It is used for the Sanding, Honing and Polishing stages of the SMALL BATCH TOOLS barrelling workflow, reducing manual sanding time while preparing parts for final hand polishing and assembly.
The machine uses a rotating wooden barrel with dedicated media and additives. For best results, keep a separate barrel for each stage to prevent cross-contamination between abrasive, honing and polishing media.
Key Features
- Medium batch capacity for up to 20 sets of frames and temples.
- WOODEN BARREL for controlled media movement and gentle contact with parts.
- DUST GRID allowing sanding dust and fine debris to exit the barrel during operation.
- Variable frequency drive control for smooth barrel operation.
- Compact workshop footprint suitable for small-batch and low-volume production.
