Applications
Surface sanding and satin finishing
PLC-controlled machines for flat surface sanding, satin finishing and finishing of metal and wood panels.
How is a satin finish achieved?
A satin (brushed) finish is a uniform, unidirectional fine-line appearance on metal; it is the most common texture on stainless steel. It is usually produced with P180–P320 grit abrasive belts.
On multi-station machines the first station removes coarse burrs and scratches, and the following stations complete the satin finish in a single pass. Inverter speed control is needed to prevent stainless steel from burning and to achieve different textures such as satin and hairline.

- One, two or three sanding units
- Wet operation option
Frequently asked questions
Which grit is used for a satin finish?
A satin finish is usually produced with P180–P320 belts, and the finer hairline finish with P400 and finer.
What is the difference between satin and hairline?
Hairline lines are much finer and longer than satin; this finish is preferred for lift doors, architectural cladding and commercial kitchen worktops.
How many units should my machine have?
With more units, coarse and fine processing is done in a single pass. The DYZ 300 series has 1, 2 or 3 units; the RR series has two drums; the 1600 R.R.R.S. has three drums and a Scotch-Brite unit.
