Operating instructions for Models 200 and 200c VibraKING® enhanced performance vibratory bowls

• The VibraKING 200 and 200c enhanced performance vibratory bowls are bench top, or stand mounted vibratory processing machines. The bowls are compatible with ceramic, plastic, shell, cob, and most other media types. The bowls include a port for fluid induction, and a port for fluid draining. The bowls are excellent for de-burring, descaling, cleaning, surface moderating, and polishing of metals, plastics, and other materials

Improved performance features of the 200c bowl

• The 200c comes from the factory with a 2” ID discharge chute. The new chute design also comes with our latest designed and patent pending chute plug. The plug has double seals designed to drastically reduce and eliminate leaks. At any time your 200 bowl maybe upgraded to the 200c bowl with the chute. Contact your authorized Burr King dealer or the Burr King factory and request part number 1520-1.

Improved performance features of the 200 and 200c bowls

• The bowls may be used with 60 hertz, 120 VAC, single-phase electrical power.
• Vibratory amplitude is easily, and continuously adjustable from zero to full amplitude.
• The bowls may be operated with media/part loads from light to full capacity without damage provided the counterweights are adjusted for the load (see next page).
• A one fifth horsepower AC motor rotating within a rotation range of 1500 to 1700 RPM (dependent on the bowl load instilled) provides vibratory energy to the bowl.

At receipt and prior to using you VibraKING® bowl

• Before leaving the Burr King factory your VibraKING® bowl was completely tested and inspected to assure that is was complete, functional, damage free, and properly packaged for shipment. You should:
• Inspect the equipment for completeness and shipping damage. If anything is missing contact your equipment supplier, or Burr King Manufacturing. If there is shipping damage file a claim with the freight carrier that delivered the bowl,
• Read all instructions completely. If you have questions please contact your equipment supplier or Burr King Manufacturing for assistance,
• Verify that you have your media and compound of choice,
• Locate the warranty card, complete it, and return it to Burr King Manufacturing. This will insure that we can better assist you in the unlikely event you require warranty service.

Equipment start-up

• Place the bowl on a stable, working surface such as a solid workbench, metal pedestal, or the Burr King StandPAK® 5000 process stand. Avoid surfaces that are slick or any other work surface that could place a person (or property) in danger should the bowl fall from, or otherwise be dislodged from the work surface. Burr King’s StandPAK® 5000 is an excellent work station on which to mount your VibraKING® bowl.

• The StandPAK® 5000 incorporates a process timer, power distribution panel, and receiver for the FilterPAK® 4001 all in stable, rugged steel base that is professionally finished.

• Select a work location near an AC power output plug that provides 120 VAC, single phase, 60 hertz electrical power of at least 2 amperes current capability.

• Avoid electrocution hazards. The 200/200c is not NEMA 4 or NEMA 4X rated. They must not be used in a manner that allows fluids to enter the unit base, power cord, on/off switch, or electrical plug. This machine must be installed with a GFCI outlet to minimize the risk of electric shock or electrocution. If your machine is configured for 208-240 volts you should install a GFCI circuit in your electrical distribution panel.

• Avoid fire and explosion hazards. The use of fluids other than water and Burr King specified soaps in the bowl (or any associated fluid re-circulating system) might create a fire/explosion hazard that could result
  in personal injury, or death. Use only clean water with recommended soaps in your VibraKING bowl and associated accessories.

• If you intend to use dry media such as walnut shell, or corncob the bowl ports should be left plugged.

• If you intend to use manually induced fluids, the bowl ports should remain plugged.

• If you intend to use a re-circulating fluid system (such as the FilterPAK 4001 filtration system) connect the fluid input ® through an appropriate metering valve to the port on the upper rim of the bowl. Connect the drain line from the lower port on the bowl to the drain input on the re-circulating device (i.e. the FilterPAK 4001) or to your fluid container. The bowl plugs are ¼  inch NP threads. If you purchased a CombiPAK 200 or 200c you are supplied with a brass, clog resistant drain accessory. If this accessory is not installed in the drain of the bowl install it by threading the drain accessory from the inside of the bowl out with the supplied O-ring to the inside wall of the bowl. Place the provided ½-20 nut on the portion of the accessory that extends out of the bowl wall and tighten sufficiently to compress but not crush the o-ring. Connect the drain hose to this accessory. Note: it is common for new media to slough of small particles that may clog the bowl drain. The clog resistant drain can be cleaned with a reverse flow air blast into the bowl (be sure to empty the bowl first and do wear protective eyewear when doing this). If you purchased a basic bowl machine connect the drain line (2008) provided to the lower port using the barb adapter provided (2007). Use the clamp stop (2009) provided to stop drain flow during processing.

• Fill the bowl with your media of choice. The media should be filled to a level approximately 1 inch below the top of the center post of the bowl.

• If you intend to use fluids, mix the fluids per the manufacturer’s instructions and introduce the fluids into the bowl either manually, or via your re-circulating system. The fluid input quantity should be adjusted to completely wet the media, but not to leave standing fluid in the bowl.

• Instill your parts into the bowl. The maximum combined media plus part load is:

• 200 & 200c – 50 pounds (generally 35 pounds of media, 15 pounds of parts)

• Typically, ceramic media will weight 90 to 110 pounds per cubic foot. Plastic media will weight from 40 to 60 pounds per cubic foot. Shell and cob media will weigh 20 to 40 pounds per cubic foot. The 200 water level volume is 10 quarts (0.33 cubic feet), and the 200c is 20 quarts (0.66 cubic feet).

• Install the bowl lid. Using the lid will dampen generated noise, and reduce fluid evaporation.

• Connect the bowl to the 120 VAC, single-phase, 60 hertz electrical service.

• Turn the unit ON. The media and parts should rotate in a toroid form (a doughnut shape), with the media and parts circulating vigorously from the bowl outside toward the inner bowl post, then downward to return to the bowl edge.

• The two plugs can be removed to connect a re-circulating fluid system.

• Counter weight adjustment. If the media and part rotation is insufficient (or to aggressive) do the following:

• Disconnect the AC electrical power.

• Remove the bowl (with its media load) by loosening and withdrawing the 3/8-16 wing nut that secures the bowl to the base, retain the wing nut and any washers that are present.

• Place the unit on its side (secured so that it will not roll off the work surface) and loosen two wing nuts and remove the safety screen inside the unit base, retain all hardware.

• Note the position of the two round counter weights that are mounted on the ½ inch shaft of the motor.

• Loosen the setscrew on the bottom weight only. If the vibratory amplitude was too little rotate the bottom weight so that it is in closer alignment (more concentric) with the upper weight. If the vibratory amplitude was too great rotate the bottom weight such that it is lesser alignment (less concentric) with the upper weight and re-tighten the setscrew. Maximum vibratory amplitude occurs when the two weights are exactly concentric with each other. Repeat this process as required until you obtain a vigorous, yet smooth toroid media and part rotation.

• Reassemble the unit by reversing the disassembly steps described above. Securely tighten all hardware.

• Amplitude adjustment can be made by loosening the bottom weight and rotating as described on the left.

Removing and replacing the bowl

• The bowl may be removed to empty, clean, maintenance, or other reasons. When replacing the bowl insure that the two bosses on the underside of the bowl span one of the rubber isolators on which the bowl rests. These bosses prevent the bowl from rotating during bowl operation. Insure that the bosses DO NOT rest on any isolator. Insure that the bowl is held down using the large flat washer and wing nut provided.

Tips for getting the best service from your model 200 or 200c enhanced performance vibratory bowl

• Use the proper media to reach the result you expect. Burr King Manufacturing will assist you in selecting the proper media, compound, and process. Use media that will obtain your desired finish without lodging inside part cavities. Burr King Manufacturing’s media is available in several grades, shapes, and material types to be best for many part materials. Finishes can be obtained from a light matte to a chrome like shine dependent on part material type and incoming part finish quality.

• Use the proper fluids (compounds) with your media of choice. Burr King recommends BKS-60 low suds soap for non-ferrous materials, and AR-60 anti-rust soap for ferrous materials. Typically, these soaps are mixed at 1 to 3 ounces per 1 gallon of clean water. Note that anti-rust soaps such as AR-60 will not provide extended rust inhibition. If you require more than a few hours of rust inhibition, you should dip your parts in a commercially available rust inhibitor solution. Burr King has several other compounds that produce some great finishes. Please view the attached flyer located at the end of this manual to see what we have to offer. If you still have questions please contact your dealer or the Burr King factory.

• Maintain your media and equipment in a clean condition. If you use a re-circulating, filtration system such as the Burr King FilterPAK 4001, it will greatly reduce the need to clean your bowl and media. Without a ®
  filtration system, you will need to clean your bowl and media at regular intervals to remove media sludge, and material fines that will accumulate inside the bowl.

• Do not allow your parts to rest in the bowl for extended periods. Doing so may result in stained, oxidized, or etched parts.

• If your process uses ceramic or plastic media, clean and dry your parts immediately after withdrawing them from the vibratory bowl. With dry media such as shell or cob cleaning may not be necessary.

• Establish a process time that allows the media and compounds of choice to process your parts to the desired finish; control this process time from part load to part load in order to assure consistent load-to-load results.

• Change your media when its size is reduced to a point that the media lodges in part cavities, if any. Also change your media if its shape changes to a point where it will not reach desired surfaces.

• Pre-mix your fluids (compounds) to assure consistent mixture. Too much soap will delay results, too little soap will reduce finish quality, and limit media life.

• Control the quality of the incoming part condition. Variation in lot-to-lot incoming part quality may cause variation in the vibratory process output.

Accessories and supplies that are available from your Burr King equipment supplier

• Media and compounds of many descriptions.
• FilterPAK® 4001 filtration systems with integrated fluid pump, filter, and fluid reservoir.
• StandPAK® 5000 vibratory base with integrated process timer, bowl mount surface, power distribution panel, and integrated receiver for the FilterPAK® 4001.
• Spare bowls, and replacement parts.

Occupational Noise Exposure

• Burr King vibratory bowls produce levels of noise consistent with their intended purposes.
• The level and spectral content of noise produced is dependent on the bowl size, the degree to the bowl is maintained in proper operating condition, the abrasive/media and accessories used, the specific application, use or not of the supplied lid, and the surrounding environment. Noise levels produced by various Burr King vibratory bowls, as measured at the Burr King factory, range from 76 to 88 decibels. Product operators and persons in the immediate product vicinity should be protected from excessive noise does levels as prescribed in OSHA regulation 29, part 1910.95 titled “Occupational Noise Exposure”.

Warranty

• Burr King Manufacturing warrants the 200 and 200c against defects in material and/or workmanship for a period of ninety days after the original customer purchase.
• This warranty is in lieu of all other warranties, either expressed or implied. Customer-induced damage, misapplication, and/or abuse are not covered by warranty.
• To receive warranty service you must provide the serial number of your bowl, and its original date of purchase, then request a return authorization from Burr King Manufacturing, or an authorized distributor. All material, for which warranty service or replacement is requested must be returned, freight prepaid to the factory for evaluation. Burr King will (at its sole discretion) repair or replace items that qualify under this warranty.
• In the event warranty coverage is extended by Burr King the warranty service will be performed without charge (including return surface freight charges) to locations within the contiguous United States.
• For all other destinations, or for other freight modes, warranty terms are FOB Warsaw, MO USA.

Vibratory Media Guide

• Burr King Vibratory Media comes in all different shapes sizes and resin formulas Dry polishing media such as Walnut Shell or super aggressive Duralum nuggets we will help you find the right media for your application Vibratory Media can remove the nasty slag from Plasma cut parts but it can also polish to a near mirror finish Our Vibratory Test Lab will lend you a hand when looking for the process best suited for your parts Let us help you choose the right media for you.
• CERAMIC: Produced by mixing clay or other vitreous materials with abrasives.
• Used on ferrous and nonferrous metals. Will leave various finishes from a light cut to an aggressive cut depending on the grade.
• PLASTIC: An abrasive which is a petroleum-based plastic media Normally used on non-ferrous materials such as aluminum.
• Most commonly used when a low RMS micro-finish is desired, or where the finish must be substantially free of impingement damage which is seen if using ceramic media on aluminum or soft material.
• SYNTHETIC: A blend of urea formaldehyde resin and abrasive material, such as aluminum oxide or silicon carbide. Synthetics provide environmental benefits due to their clean, non-foaming residue. Synthetics however have a lower specific gravity than plastic, meaning they do not remove material as aggressively. This type of media is a good choice for delicate parts. Synthetics do have a higher wear rate than plastic.
• DURALUM: These nuggets are used to remove slag and mil scale.
• Also removes heavy flash from plasma or laser-cut parts. Primarily used on ferrous material.

BURNISHING:

• This media is free of abrasive particles and is used for lapping, light deburring, and cleaning of parts. Commonly used with stainless steel, porcelain and carbon steel.
• WALNUT SHELL: Black Walnut shell abrasive is used to polish soft metals, fiberglass, wood, plastics, and stone. It works as a deburring and deflashing product for moldings, castings, and electrical parts. It is an efficient soft abrasive when used to tumble and polish gun castings, jewelry, and metal parts due to its resistance to breakdown. The media has a natural color.
• WSR50: Black Walnut shell impregnated with rouge and used to polish yellow metals such as gold, brass, and copper
• WSR50 media is red in color.
• CORN COB: Smooth flowing abra- sive made from the hard woody ring of the cob.
• This is used as a tumbling and vibra- tory media to absorb dirt and oils, and dry parts without- affecting the surface of the part. Cob is biodegradable and non-toxic. Corn Cob has a natural color.
• TREATED COB: Corn cob treated with aluminum oxide and used for polishing ferrous or nonferrous soft metals.
• Works well for aluminum.
• (See price list for current list pricing, there are many media shapes, sizes, and grits available)

FERROUS

• AR-60: Anti-rust liquid is used for the prevention of oxidation and rust formation. This is an inhibitor only which lasts up to two days. (047)
  RUST X-100: Anti-rust dip used for the prevention of oxi- dation and rust formation. Lasts up to two months if not diluted. (Rust X-100)
  RUST X-300: Rust remover that is an environmentally-safe, water-based product. Removes rust in minutes without scrubbing. Use rusted tools, auto parts, and firearms to restore parts to like-new condition. (Rust X-300)
  BKS-45: A liquid cleaning and deburring compound for use with non- metallic media. Uniquely formulated low foam- ing chemical to eliminate plastic and synthetic media foam- ing problems and maximize plastic and synthetic media efficiency.
