Sand blasting machine

Sand blasting machine is a process of surface preparation in which loose particles are removed from any surface. And those loose particles can be scale, corrosion, paint or any burrs, etc. Surface preparation is done to paint and coating on the component to increasing its life. Sand blasting is quite useful for any surface because if don’t remove the loose particles then the strength of any paint or coating is very low on that surface of components.

Main function of sand blasting machine

De-scaling
Peening
De-burring
De-flashing
Polishing
Cleaning
Stress relieving

Types Of Sand Blasting Machine

Air operated / pneumatic sand blasting machine
Airless / wheel operated sand blasting machine

Air Operated / Pneumatic Sand Blasting Machine

In pneumatic sand blasting machine compressed air is used for blasting process. In this type of machine compressor of required CFM is used for proper working. With the high pressure abrasive is strikes on the component surface and blasting process are done.

The basic principle of sand blasting machine is to throw a high-velocity stream of air and sand on the required surface. Blasting simply means throwing media on the required surface in high velocity.

Airless / wheel operated sand blasting machine

Sand blasting can be done in open air and also in closed system or we can say cabinet.

In open-air blasting we are doing blasting in open environment. The operator has to wear a safety suit, helmet, etc.and the closed blasting machine is also called as sand blasting cabinet. It prevents the environment from dust and operators health also. The closed sand blasting cabinet consists abrasive recycling system also that we can reuse the used abrasive.so later it will be economic.cabinet also consist dust collection system.the operator can do sand blasting from outside of the cabinet.

The Portable Sand Blasting Machine is used as a finishing processthat has been successfully utilized on glass, metal, plastic, ceramics and stone. The portable sandblasting machines are safe, high productivity systems designed for use with a wide range of abrasive media. The function of portable sand blasting machine include descaling, peening, Deburring, Deflashing, polishing, cleaning and stress relieving. main applications are in the industries of ships, infrastructure & other vehicles.
