Our Media
We supply a wide range of abrasives and compounds to ensure the correct functioning of our machines and better finishing results.
MEDIA
Preformed Abrasives
Abrasives remove and even out surfaces, removing imperfections and burrs, and allow for uniform polishing. They are chosen according to the material, the desired finish, and the type of vibratory finish, with various shapes and sizes for optimum processing.
Ceramic Abrasives
Ceramic abrasives are ideal for deburring, aggressive sanding and edge rounding of hard materials. Available in ceramic slurries of various abrasive grades, porcelain for superfinishing and high density for accelerated chemical processes (VCM).
Plastic Abrasives
Ideal for deburring and sanding softer metals, such as copper, brass and aluminum. In recent years, special cycles have been created for finishing parts made with 3D printers. Available in a variety of abrasion and controlled wear grades.
Drying Material
Suitable for complete drying of parts subjected to vibrofinishing, washing or other processes.
In addition, they can be used as abrasive agents when in combination with suitable compounds
MEDIA
Chemical Compounds
Vibron's ISO 9001-certified vibrofinishing compounds clean, deburr, polish, protect against corrosion and prepare parts for final finishing. Available in liquid, powder and paste formulas, they guarantee excellent quality and results.
Liquid and powdered compounds
Depending on their composition, they can perform different actions, such as rust protection, pickling, cleaning, degreasing and polishing.
There are also powder compounds useful for the accelerated chemical superfinishing (VCM) process.
Superfinishing pastes
Vibrofinishing pastes are ideal for removing burrs and imperfections, making surfaces smoother and more uniform, and achieving specific polishes and finishes. They can be used individually or in combination with other compounds, adapting to the processing needs and characteristics of the parts to be treated.

Superfinishing VCM
The VCM (Vibrofinitura Chimico Meccanica) superfinishing process, or isotropic finishing, uses vibrating machines with high specific gravity granules and selective chemical compounds. This method acts on the roughness of the metal, creating a surface film that is removed along with the irregularities to achieve a smooth and uniform surface. It is a gentle treatment that improves the performance and efficiency of machined parts by reducing roughness without altering the geometry of components.
Results and benefits
- Very low roughness: less than Ra 0.05 → reduced friction, consumption
and operating temperature, vibration and noise. - Absence of surface stresses → improved mechanical performance.
- Increase in surface microhardness → increase in mechanical strength.
- Maintenance of dimensional integrity.
- Extending component life and maintenance time.
- Increased lift, fatigue cycling resistance and lubricity.
- Reduced operating costs.
Treatable materials:
The VCM process can treat special steels, martensitic stainless, and heat treatment steels, obtaining flat surfaces with minimal roughness without altering the geometry and dimensions of the treated parts.
Areas of use:
Energy, automotive, motorsport, aviation, construction machinery, hydraulics, pneumatics, transmission.
