Mechanical Paste Polishing vs. CAVF Finishing of Gears
A recent Materials Matter article compared generic deburring versus CAVF (chemically accelerated vibratory finishing.) Both techniques are conducted in a vibratory unit.

The Challenges of Generic Deburring vs. CAVF Deburring
Relative to gear hobbing, shaving, and/or post heat-treat grinding to generate accurate tooth morphology there may come a time wherein vibratory deburring is a requirement to remove adherent burrs.
