Managing Media
To be cost effective, an automated blast system must efficiently andeffectively utilize the appropriate technology to recover and clean the blast
media, and return it to the blast system for re-use. TechnologyApplication Cyclone ReclaimerSeparate fine to medium mesh and lightweightmedia from dust and debris. Works with most
media, including glass bead, Aluminum Oxide,
and plastic.Air-Wash SeparatorSeparate coarse and heavy media from dust anddebris. Used with steel grit and shot. Often in-
cludes a scalping drum to screen particles by size.Vibratory Separator/Screen clean media by mesh size, and removeClassifierdust and oversize particles. Used whereveroperating mix is critical.Magnetic SeparatorRemove ferrous particles from non-ferrous media,or remove non-ferrous particles from steel grit or
shot.Dense-ParticleRemove high-density particles that could damage aSeparatordelicate surface.Used with lightweight media(plastic, wheat starch, etc.).Media MonitoringIncludes assorted technologies, from automaticmedia-add sensors in hoppers to sophisticated
particle-stream controls in the metering system to
precisely control the volume and quality of the blast
media.
Silicon carbide media through multiple blast
nozzles ensure uniform material removal fromglass billets.Fuel-injected parts are deburred with glassbeads in a 9-station indexing turntablemachine. Parts are held and masked incustom-made urethane fixtures.
