This is fully submerged motorized barrel, as illustrated, is designed for the rapid and efficient handling of small articles such as screws, rivets, nuts etc.
The unit is suitable for the most deposits with the exception of chrome. The unit is equipped with all plastics perforated battle, bearings, gear ring and the side panels which remain in the solution.
The barrel can be raised out of the tank by the hand operated pinion sector mechanism and emptied with minimum effort the plated parts being discharged through funnel into a bucket. This causes the rapidity of loading and unloading. The barrel is counterbalanced to minimize the lifting effort. Cathode contacts are of the flexible type, designed to give effective current distribution and to be easily removable for stripping. The contact cable passes through stationery bushes to avoid abrasion of the cable against rotation of barrel.
The rotary, stationery bearings and the plastic gear ring is replaceable. Barrels are available in three capacities.
