SAINT PAUL, MINN. - FedTech is pleased to announce a new addition to their production floor: a dual-head wet process abrasive belt Timesaver 1100. With the new finishing machinery, FedTech is able to finish even more parts after they have been waterjet or laser cut; in half the time that hand finishing takes. The Timesaver will keep turnaround times short and efficiency levels high on FedTech's production floor.

The Timesaver 1100 from GrindingMaster has a 3.25" diameter drum; 1525mm abrasive belt; and 10-30 FPM feed speed. The Timesaver can finish parts ranging from 125mm to 600mm in width. The double infeed and outfeed holddown rolls keep the parts securely in place while an infeed stop bar allows for maximum control. The centralized control panel keeps operator in touch with all aspects of the machining process. The small footprint also helps maximize floor space.

FedTech's goal in acquiring the new finishing machinery was to shorten turnaround time for parts that have been waterjet or laser cut. Timesavers are ideal for finishing, deburring, or light calibrating of parts. The new addition complements FedTech's value added services, including welding, drilling, and custom assembly.

FedTech, located in Minnesota, is equipped with some of the Midwest's largest waterjet and laser cutting machines. They have the expertise to assist you in choosing the best-fit materials and cutting options to help you get your job done right the first time.
