Edge Rounding on Laser-Cut Metal Parts: How to Achieve Up to 2 mm Radius Using Abrasive and Scotch Brushes in Dry Mode

How to achieve radii of up to 2 mm using abrasive and scotch brushes in dry mode

In metal part machining, edge rounding after laser cutting is crucial to improve safety, coating adhesion, and compliance with regulations. Instead of nylon filament brushes, this process is carried out using brushes made of abrasive flap sheets (VSM or Deerfos) combined with scotch-brite-type material..

Why round the edges?

  • Eliminates sharp and hazardous edges
  • Enhances paint and coating adhesion
  • Meets ISO/EN quality standards
  • Facilitates assembly and handling

How does the process work?

The brushes are equipped with abrasive flap sheets and scotch layers that work in dry mode. This system allows clean and controlled operation, achieving edge radii of up to 2 mm even on stainless steel, aluminum, or carbon steel.

Advantages of dry edge rounding

  • No coolant required
  • Lower maintenance
  • Clean finish, ready for downstream processes
  • Long-lasting brushes with high performance
