Back in the early 1970's, Shor introduced the precious metal jewelry industry to vibratory finishers. Since then, they have become quite popular and are now a standard part of the finishing process for most shops. For a comparison between vibratory finishers and other methods of polishing (both mass finishing and hand polishing) see Finishing Process Comparisons.

Selecting the right machine for your shop- The first variable to consider is the capacity of the machine. The ¼ cubic foot machines hold about 125 rings at a time. The ½ cubic foot will hold about 250 rings, 1 cubic foot about 500. The ¼ cubic foot machines are sufficient for most shops. Even larger shops often choose this size machine, purchasing several so that they keep the work in separate batches while finishing them simultaneously. |

Raytech Brand Vibratory Finishers- Good, reliable machines in a wide variety of sizes. All units, except the very large Tumble-Dump, are CE approved. |

Nova Brand Vibratory Finishers- Simply the strongest, most reliable machines available today. In addition, these are the only machines with available automatic separators. For self leveling feet, add $5. For 220v 60 cycle, add $50. For 220V 50 cycle (European) add $100. HT machines have a thicker bowl (this prevents efficiency dampening harmonics from being created). HD machines last 3-5 times longer than HT or HD machines (about 10-15 years conservatively). HDT machines combine the superior characteristics of both the HD and HT machines. SHDT machines are made to run steel shot. |
