Edge rounding and slag removal before coating on structural steel

A GDM-265D removes dross from both faces of plasma-cut parts and a GCM-R3AR rounds the edges to R2 so the coating holds.

Edge rounding and slag removal before coating on structural steel

The challenge

Coating systems for bridges and corrosive environments require rounded edges, and paint applied over cut-edge dross or sharp arrises thins out and fails first. Hand grinding hundreds of parts per shift is slow, inconsistent and hard on operators.

The solution

Parts leave the plasma table and pass through a GDM-265D, which strips dross and burrs from both faces, including around holes. Long edges are then rounded to R2 or R3 on a GCM-R3AR in one pass for both corners; small parts go over a table-type TCM-SR3-SP.

Workflow

  1. Plasma or flame cutting
  2. Deslag and deburr both faces on the GDM-265D
  3. Round edges to R2/R3 on the GCM-R3AR or TCM-SR3-SP
  4. Blast cleaning
  5. Coating

Outcome

Consistent edge radius on every part and clean surfaces into the blast room, replacing manual grinding at this stage.
