We have a true success story with one of our customers. We had
for years sold them carbide burrs to deburr their parts. They
switched to the ORBITOOL and are so happy with the new tool they
went out and found us a customer to buy the rest of the carbide burrs
so that they wouldn't have to use them.
Now all we stock for this customer is ORBITOOL.

I have been using the J.W. Done deburring system for about two years now as a stand-alone
system for deburring the intersections of titanium tees and elbows. These parts require a
controlled radius at the intersections with no hand burring allowed. This process was
previously accomplished using electrochemical deburring, which required extremely
complicated tooling and the process was at times not under control. Since switching to
the J.W. Done system we have a perfectly controlled process, no intricate tooling to
manufacture, long tool life and very short setup times.
We are currently trying to implement this system into our everyday deburring system by
either attaching the deburring equipment to our CNC's or building stand alone systems to
run simultaneously with our machines.

"Bosch-Rexroth of Fountain Inn, South Carolina is a builder of hydraulic pumps for the off-road industry. It is extremely critical that the finished products maintain a high level of cleanliness for correct performance in the field.
Cross hole contamination has been a large problem with the production of these components. Because of this problem, the Engineering Department has been looking for a tool that would quickly and safety remove burrs from cross-hole drilled holes in castings produced, without damaging any entities between the cross hole area and outer casting surface.
Bosch-Rexroth of Fountain Inn, South Carolina has been using the Orbitool since late winter of 2007. Once our operators understood the proper use of the tool, they found the tool to be extremely effective on both housing and port block castings. In early winter of 2007, only (1) machine cell worked with and tested the tool. Today the tool is used in ten different areas and Bosch-Rexroth Engineers are seeing additional areas thee tools can and will be used in the near future."
