Alternative to mechanical wheel buffing for stainless steel sheets?

Is there any better way of buffing stainless steel sheets? We use the mechanical hand wheel buffing which produces lots of dust and the process is very dirty. The people also will have health hazards.

If you are looking for an automated process up to 48 inches in width, look into a wide belt finishing machine using non-woven belts. They may also go up to 60 inches. Not sure. Extras include dust control features using water.
