Technical Specifications
Polar batch vibratory bowls provide flexible manual-unload finishing for mixed parts, short runs, and production workflows that benefit from inspection between cycles. Durable urethane construction and controlled spiral media flow support deburring, radiusing, cleaning, polishing, and burnishing.
Available models
- FM-BB-01 — 1 cu ft batch bowl
- FM-BB-02 — 2 cu ft batch bowl
Configure the machine around ceramic, plastic, porcelain, or steel media, wet compound requirements, and the target finish. Built to order; freight quoted separately.

Batch vibratory bowls for flexible production finishing
Polar batch vibratory bowls provide controlled media flow for deburring, edge radiusing, cleaning, polishing, burnishing, and pre-coating preparation. Their flexible manual-unload workflow suits mixed part families, shorter production runs, and applications that require inspection between cycles.
Machinist's Vault can help select the bowl capacity, ceramic or plastic media, compound, and process settings based on your alloy, geometry, starting condition, and desired finish.
Frequently Asked Questions
Choose a batch bowl for changing part families, shorter runs, lower throughput, or when operators need to inspect parts between cycles. Internal separation is better for recurring high-volume production with automated part discharge.
Yes, subject to the machine configuration and application. We recommend media material, shape, size, and grade after reviewing the part alloy and target finish.
Cycle time varies with part material, burr size, media aggressiveness, compound, amplitude, and finish target. Representative part testing is the best way to establish a production cycle.
