SG1030-NG+JS + SGP1000 – Flexible Deburring & Edge Rounding Solution for Mixed-Material, Multi-Part Sheet Metal Production

 “In flexible manufacturing, your equipment must adapt to your parts—not the other way around.”

In today’s high-mix, high-speed sheet metal fabrication environment, manufacturers face constant disruption:
Different materials. Different part sizes. Different finishing specs.

“If you change tools more than you change batches—you don’t need more operators. You need better systems.”

One European OEM recently solved this exact problem by implementing a modular dual-system line from JONSEN.

The Challenge – Deburring Diverse Parts, Without Downtime

This OEM processed a daily rotation of:

• 304 stainless steel panels

• Anodized aluminum housings

• Vinyl film-coated control box covers

The issue?
Each material required:

• A different abrasive grit

• A different tool pressure

• Manual handling between deburring and polishing

The result? Lost time, inconsistent finishes, rising rework rates.

The Solution – SG1030-NG+JS + SGP1000 Modular System

SG1030-NG+JS

• Narrow + wide abrasive belt heads

• Fine burr removal + oxide cleanup on steel and aluminum

• Vacuum conveyor ensures smooth transport of small/thin/film-protected parts

• Ideal for multi-material, high-precision surface prep

SGP1000

• Wide abrasive belt for surface leveling

• Planetary abrasive barrel station for 360° edge rounding

• Targets sharp corners, holes, and irregular geometries with rotational precision

• Perfect for lighting enclosures, HVAC panels, control box chassis

Together, the systems allow seamless flow from surface deburring to full edge treatment—no manual transfer, no tool resetting, and no compromise on finish quality.

Why It Works – Modular Deburring Means Minimal Downtime

Key benefits of this JONSEN modular configuration:

• Switch between batches without stopping

• No manual tool change between aluminum and steel

• Process film-coated parts without surface damage

• Preserve coating adhesion and prevent corrosion initiation

• Batch part size? No problem. Shape complexity? Handled.

In my professional visits to factories across France and the UK, the teams who beat their deadlines weren’t working faster. They were just switching tools less.

Who Is This System Built For?

• OEMs handling mixed-material batches

• Sheet metal job shops who need to scale efficiently

• HVAC, electrical, lighting, or enclosure producers

• Fabricators working with anodized, coated, or fragile substrates

• Plants chasing higher first-pass yield while reducing labor cost

Case Results – What One Factory Achieved in 6 Weeks

Client: Lighting enclosure manufacturer in the Netherlands
Before JONSEN:

• 3 tool changes per shift

• Film-coating damage rate: 9.4%

• Deburring-to-finishing time per batch: 55 min

After SG1030-NG+JS + SGP1000:

• Zero tool change per shift

• Film damage dropped to 1.2%

• End-to-end processing time reduced by 38%

• ROI achieved in 7.5 months

Let’s Recap – Why This System Outperforms

• Built for mixed-material flexibility

• No material swapping or abrasive recalibration between parts

• Supports steel, stainless, aluminum, and laminated substrates

• Handles small parts without manual placement

• Modular for expansion and layout adaptation

“A system that doesn’t stop for your parts—that’s what modern finishing is about.”

Time to Choose Your Side – Standard vs. Smart Finishing?

Are you still running fixed deburring systems for ever-changing batches?
Or are you thinking about how modular finishing saves time and raises your quality benchmark?

Does tool change still cost you 30 minutes per shift?
What if that time turned into throughput?

Open Discussion – What Do You Think?

What’s the most fragile part you’ve had to deburr?
How do you currently handle part transitions between steel and aluminum?
Do you believe vacuum conveyors are underused in metal finishing lines?
