Figure 4 Extrusion Presented to Disc for End Deburring 1. Density Disc Construction Density refers to the number of individual filaments across the face of the brush.Maximum density could be achieved by packing the filaments against one another, offering an almost solid face. This would not be practical in this application. The individual filaments need to flex in order to provide a wiping action which willfollow the contours of the profile. Heat dissipation is also critical in order to avoid a condition referred to as “nylon smear”. The melting point of the nylon used in these Variables in disc construction affect its performance in this application. The qualityof the process is dependent upon optimizing each of these variables in relationship to each other. These are: - Density - Face/Band Width - Trim Length -Filament Diameter - Grit Size
