Eugen Holzknecht is the general manager of Rösler Metal Finishing USA, LLC, Battle Creek, MI, a manufacturer of mass finishing and shot blasting equipment, as well as grinding media and compounds for mass finishing.
The two systems used most often for surface finishing are shot blasting or vibratory finishing, also known as mass finishing. For both types of finishing systems, processing parts continuously in through-feed machines, rather than in batch machines, allows large quantities of parts to be finished in a short amount of time at the lowest possible cost.
