Product Portfolio
  • Deburring machines and wide belt grinding machines

  • Our metal machines are built with your needs in mind. We know different applications require different approaches, and nobody offers a wider variety of solutions than Timesavers International.
      • Solutions

          • Deburring

          • Deburring is the removal of irregularities and sharp edges on metal products. They are often caused by machining work such as laser, water jet, punched or plasma cutting. Discover Timesavers’ broad machine line for effective and efficient deburring.

            WHY IS DEBURRING REQUIRED?

            • Burrs do not look professional and qualitative, from an aesthetic point of view it is recommended to deburr.
            • Chance of minor injuries to assembly personnel.
            • Burrs can cause problems during assembly due to incorrect fitting.
            • Burrs pose a risk to the proper functioning of the installation in which they are installed. Such as the damage that a burr can cause in the long run in a running motor, due to friction and corrosion.
            • Burrs are often sharp and can therefore cause injuries when handled manually.
            • Burrs cause problems during post-processing with, for example, a coating. On the sharp side, the layer thickness will be thinner than elsewhere, with all its consequences.
          • Finishing

          • Machines from Timesavers can be built to produce a variety of finishes. The most common finishes are a straight-line or grain finish for decorative purposes. These can be accomplished using abrasive belts, Scotch-Brite belts and/or brushes.

            THE PERFECT FINISH WITH A TIMESAVERS
            Timesavers offers machines for every required finish. From the Manual Grinder, the rotary brush machines, till the 81 series, all Timesavers machines do have their unique finish capabilities.

          • Edge Rounding

          • A radius is created on the edge of the metal during edge rounding of metal products. This ensures that the sharpness of the edge is removed and it is given a uniform rounding. Timesavers offers perfection in edge rounding with a radius of up to two mm in a single pass.

            YOUR PROBLEM, OUR SOLUTION
            THE PERFECT UNIFORM EDGE ROUNDING
            Various developments inside the sheet metal industry and influences from outside the industry, make product edge rounding / radiussing increasingly important.

            RADIUSSING UP TO 2 MM
            Such as, for example coating or painting requirements, food safety requirements and in the health and safety production environment

            LASER OXIDE REMOVAL AND CREATING A RADIUS IN ONE PASS
            It's now possible to remove the laser oxide skin from laser-cut steel in combining with uniform edge rounding in one pass

            WHY IS EDGE ROUNDING IMPORTANT?

            • Risk of injury during assembly and use of the product
            • Coating quality
            • Protection of machines that process the product
            • Food safety requirements (related to bacteria)
            • Cost-cutting (automation of manual processes)
          • Precision grinding

          • PRECISION GRINDING WITH TIMESAVERS’ INNOVATIVE GRINDING TECHNOLOGY
            Belt grinding is the most efficient choice because of the high surface quality, lower energy and tooling costs and a tight tolerance. A switch between high stock removal and fine finshing can be done by a fast tooling change. By working over the full width of the material in a cold process environment, low material tension will be added. Timesavers is the expert in precision grinding where tolerances of up to 0,02 mm can be achieved.

            • GRINDS MATERIAL TO A PREDETERMINED THICKNESS; FLAT, TAPERED OR U-SHAPED
            • REMOVES UP TO 0,2 MM PER GRINDING STROKE DEPENDING ON THE MATERIAL.
            • ACCURACY OF +/- 0,02 MM.
          • Heavy slag removal

          • Heavy slag is produced during thermal cutting operations: oxy-fuel and plasma cutting. In order to remove the heavy slag of plasma or oxy-fuel parts, Timesavers developed the Hammerhead.

            Heavy slag Removal with a innovative solutioNeuesn of Timesavers
            For this application Timesavers has developed a special machine execution for the 12, 22 and the 42 series, which takes care of your heavy slag.

            HEAVY SLAG REMOVAL WITH THE INNOVATIVE SOLUTION OF TIMESAVERS
            Heavy slag also know as dross is produced during flame or plasma cutting, Timesavers developed a new head that is capable of removing this heavy slag in one pass.

            EDGE ROUNDING IN COMBINATION WITH HEAVY SLAG REMOVAL IN ONE PASS
            It's now possible to remove the heavy slag from flame or plasma cut parts in combination with uniform edge rounding in one pass

          • Laser oxide removal

          • Before coating or welding or other surface treatments, the side of a metal part must be clean and without laser oxide. The laser oxide removal brushes developed by Timesavers can be used to remove the laser oxide layer without damaging the metal part.

            SAVE TIME WITH OUR LASER OXIDE REMOVAL SOLUTION
            Oxide skin occurs on metal and stainless steel when laser cutting using oxygen, and it must be removed for subsequent coating processes or welding. Timesavers has developed a perfect solution for the removal of laser oxide, both from the surface, as well as from the sides of the product.
