I've been familiar with vibratory and tumbling for decades, but only recently heard about centrifugal barrel finishing and disc machine finishing. Vastly improved processing time (10X) by comparison. Does anybody here use these types of machines? Are they as good as the marketing people say, or is there some unspoken downside? The price of the machines seems high unless a lot of volume is being processed. All the parts I deal with are very tiny and conventional vibratory seems to accomplish little, probably due to the low mass.
