THE METAL FABRICATION INDUSTRY CONTINUES TO CONFIRM THAT THE CONDITION OF A PRODUCT'S SURFACE PLAYS A CRITICAL ROLE IN MEETING TODAY'S EXACTING STANDARDS FOR DURABILITY, PRECISION, APPEARANCE, AND SAFETY. THAT IS WHY MANUFACTURERS DEVOTE SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNTS OF TIME AND MONEY TO CONDITIONING SURFACES BY: DEBURRING, CLEANING, FINISHING, POLISHING, AND BLENDING. THIS PAPER DISCUSSES THE TECHNICAL ASPECTS OF CLEAN SURFACES INCLUDING SURFACE COMPOSITION AND ANALYSIS. OTHER AREAS DISCUSSED INCLUDE DEBURRING, INCLUDING BURR CLASSIFICATION AND TYPES, AS WELL AS AUTOMATED MACHINES FOR BURR REMOVAL. A FINAL TOPIC INCLUDES THE USE OF ROBOTICS AND COMPUTER-AIDED AUTOMATION FOR FINISHING, BLENDING, AND DEBURRING APPLICATIONS.
