Configure a QintelliM RW-Series machine with one or more R sanding-belt deburring stations, W brushing or polishing stations, project-based 450–1600 mm working widths, and A, M or A-M conveyor platforms.
Choose RW for deburring and surface finishing without an independent S edge-rounding station. Choose RSW Series when edge rounding is also required.
Configurable Deburring and Surface-Finishing Platform
Direct answer: QintelliM RW-Series machines combine one or more R deburring stations using sanding belt consumables with one or more W surface-finishing stations using a selected brushing or polishing roller. Station quantity and arrangement, project-based working width, conveyor platform, abrasive sequence, W-roller type, control system, dust collection and electrical data are confirmed from the workpiece and sample testing.
Choose this family for sanding-belt deburring followed by brushing or polishing with the selected W tooling, when no independent S edge-rounding process is required. Choose RSW Series when deburring, edge rounding and surface finishing are all required. Heavy-slag removal requires a C function.
Step 1 · Process Route
RW identifies the deburring and surface-finishing family. Each common model code records the planned station sequence from left to right. RWW and RRWW provide two W stages when brushing and polishing are required as separate controlled processes. The final delivered arrangement is confirmed in the approved technical proposal.
One R sanding-belt stage followed by one W stage for a selected brushed or polished surface on a suitable workpiece.
Two independently controlled sanding-belt stages can separate primary burr removal from secondary grinding or finish preparation before W processing.
Two W stations allow brushing and polishing to be configured as separate controlled process steps, with one or two preceding R sanding-belt stations.
Additional R or W stations and alternative physical arrangements are available by project when justified by the sample result and production route.
Step 2 · Surface Target
Define the grain direction, acceptable visual variation, reference sample and whether the finish is functional or decorative.
Define the target appearance or measurable roughness requirement. A mirror finish is not assumed without representative sample testing.
Roller construction, process setting, abrasive sequence and number of passes are selected from the actual material and acceptance standard.
Step 3 · Workpiece Size
Use the maximum workpiece dimension across the conveyor after considering orientation, surface-grain direction and loading flow. Every listed width is supplied according to project confirmation; it is not a promise of stock availability.
The working width is a processing parameter. It is not the same as the machine's overall width or total conveyor-platform dimensions. Final dimensions are stated in the approved technical proposal.
Step 4 · Workpiece Holding
Considered for suitable non-magnetic materials, small parts or thin sheets. Openings, contact area, flatness and combined R/W process load must be reviewed.
Used for suitable ferromagnetic steel workpieces. Actual holding depends on material response, contact area, thickness and process load.
A combined magnetic and vacuum holding arrangement for mixed or changing workpiece requirements. The actual layout and effective holding areas are project-specific and confirmed according to the workpiece and application.
Buyer Technical Reference
| Selection Item | RW-Series Reference | Procurement Note |
|---|---|---|
| Processing functions | R sanding-belt deburring plus W brushing or polishing | Confirm the incoming burr and the required visible or measurable surface result. |
| Working widths | 450 / 630 / 800 / 1000 / 1300 / 1600 mm | All widths are available by project confirmation. |
| R consumable | Sanding belt | Belt specification and sequence depend on burr severity, material and target surface. |
| W tooling | Selected brushing or polishing roller | Roller type, setting and finish require sample testing; two independent results may require two W stations. |
| Representative processing-height reference | 80 mm on the reviewed 450, 800 and 1000 configurations | This is not a universal guarantee; flatness, rigidity, holding and process load remain decisive. |
| Station quantity and arrangement | Defined by the selected common model code | Read the letters from left to right as the planned process route; the delivered arrangement is stated in the approved technical proposal. |
| Power, speed, dimensions and weight | Configuration-specific | Use only the final technical proposal and machine nameplate. |
| Dust collection | QintelliM currently supplies wet dust collection systems only. Wet dust collection is our current standard recommended solution for this machine family. | Final dust-control configuration depends on the actual material, dust characteristics, machine process, system design, installation conditions, spark risk and applicable local requirements. |
Common Production Models
Select the R/W station route first, then combine it with the required working width and conveyor platform. Every common model below supports 450, 630, 800, 1000, 1300 or 1600 mm working widths and A vacuum, M magnetic or A-M combined magnetic and vacuum platforms with project-specific layouts and effective holding areas.

How to read a complete model: 800RW-A means 800 mm working width, an R-W station route and an A vacuum platform. Product-gallery images remain labeled as Representative RW-Series configuration unless the exact project configuration is confirmed.
800RW-A Process Proof
This QintelliM demo shows a representative 800RW-A configuration loading a workpiece on an A vacuum adsorption platform, processing it through one R sanding-belt deburring station and one W surface-finishing station, and presenting the finished surface. The video demonstrates this tested workpiece only; final capability and surface acceptance require workpiece review and sample testing.
RFQ Preparation
Sample testing is recommended before the R/W station arrangement, sanding-belt sequence, W-roller type, conveyor platform and final machine configuration are approved.
Frequently Asked Questions
R means a deburring station using a sanding belt consumable. W means a surface-finishing station using a selected brushing or polishing roller.
RW uses one R and one W stage in its representative route. RRW adds a second independently controlled R stage so primary burr removal and secondary grinding or finish preparation can be separated before W processing.
RWW means one R station followed by two W stations. RRWW means two R stations followed by two W stations. Two W stages allow brushing and polishing to be configured as separate controlled processes; roller selection and sequence are confirmed by sample testing.
Not through the R and W functions alone. Controlled edge rounding requires an S station using rotary roller brush tooling.
Not as the normal R/W process. Heavy-slag removal requires evaluation of a C station with dedicated alloy-hammer tooling.
No. Material, incoming surface, abrasive sequence, roller, process setting and acceptance method all affect the result. A representative sample and agreed inspection standard are required.
No. The listed working widths are available by project. Production configuration and delivery are confirmed after the workpiece, process and order requirements are reviewed.
Installed power and process settings change with working width, station quantity, roller, conveyor platform, control system and auxiliary equipment. Approved values are stated in the technical proposal and on the machine nameplate.
Send QintelliM the workpiece photos, drawings, dimensions, material, upstream process, burr condition, target surface and production requirement. Engineering will confirm the R/W route, abrasives, W roller, width, conveyor platform, dust-control interface and technical data.
