Abstract:  
Marshall, MI. Based in Cincinnati, OH, Meyer Tool needed vibratory finishing machines to complete EDM work on jet engine components. Deciding to depart from a hand finishing process that was labor and time intensive, Meyer Tool required a solution that reduced cycle time and provided greater control over quality. With this knowledge in mind, Meyer Tool turned to Walther Trowal, a name synonymous with innovative mass finishing technology. Together with the Walther Trowal team, Meyer Tool selected the 200 and 300 model DD Vibratory Finishers, an effluent system that is analogous to the ZM 03 FL Effluent Cleaning Machine as well as Walther Trowal compound and powder. The result: Walter Trowal's Total Solution reduced Meyer Tool's cycle time by 600%. Through its closed loop, Walther Trowal system that improves repeatability and quality, Meyer Tool now finishes 12 or more components in 30 minutes versus the previous time of 15 to 20 minutes per component.
