Direct answer: A modular deburring machine code describes the processing stations and conveyor platform installed in the line. At Qintellim, R means deburring, S means edge rounding using a rotary roller brush, C means alloy-hammer heavy-slag removal, W means brushing or polishing, A means vacuum conveying, and M means magnetic conveying. Repeated letters indicate repeated stations, while letter order indicates process order.
Last reviewed: June 2026. This guide describes Qintellim's modular naming logic and is intended to help production engineers compare process configurations.
This video shows how QINTELLIM configures R, S, C and W stations in a metal deburring and surface finishing machine. The R station uses a sanding belt for deburring, the S station uses a rotary roller brush for edge rounding, the C station is used for heavy slag removal, and the W station can be configured for brushing or polishing.

| Code | Station or platform | Primary purpose |
|---|---|---|
| R | deburring station | Burr removal, grinding, oxide removal and surface preparation. |
| S | edge rounding station | Controlled edge rounding and contour treatment. |
| C | Alloy hammer station | Removal of large, strongly attached slag. |
| W | Brushing or polishing roller | Directional brushing, polishing and surface texturing. |
| A | Vacuum conveyor platform | Holding suitable non-magnetic, small or thin workpieces. |
| M | Magnetic conveyor platform | Stable holding of ferrous steel parts. |
| A-M | Dual conveyor platform | Vacuum and magnetic holding for mixed production. |
Read the processing letters from left to right, then read the conveyor suffix. For example, RSW-A describes deburring, followed by edge rounding, followed by brushing or polishing, using a vacuum conveyor. CR-M describes heavy-slag removal followed by deburring on a magnetic conveyor.
| Example | Meaning | Typical goal |
|---|---|---|
| RR | Two deburring stations | Heavy deburring followed by controlled finishing. |
| RS | Deburring followed by edge rounding | Remove burrs, then create safer rounded edges. |
| RSW | Deburring, edge rounding, then brushing/polishing | Complete functional and visual finishing. |
| CR | Heavy-slag removal followed by deburring | Process plasma- or flame-cut parts with attached slag. |
| RRSR-A-M | Multi-stage deburring and edge rounding on a dual platform | Flexible mixed-material production. |
To compare complete station sequences, working widths and conveyor options, use the Qintellim metal deburring machine configuration guide before selecting an R, S, C or W process combination.
Repeated stations are not simply duplicates. They can divide a difficult process into controlled stages. Two R stations may use different abrasive grades for stock removal and finishing. Multiple S stations can increase edge-radius consistency or throughput. The correct sequence depends on burr size, material, target finish, part geometry and line speed.
No. A longer configuration offers more process stages, but the best solution is the shortest stable process that consistently achieves the required result and throughput.
Yes. Qintellim supports non-standard automation and can adjust station quantity, order, working width, conveyor platform and integration according to the workpiece and production goal.
Deburring removes unwanted sharp projections or cutting residue. Edge rounding creates a controlled radius on the part edge. A part may require one or both processes.
