Shot blasting technology serves all the metal industries. Be it aerospace, automotive, construction, rail or shipbuilding  shot blasting material  provides its services to all the genres.   What is shot blasting technology? Shot blasting technology is the use of abrasives to clean, peen and polish a metal surface. The purpose of shot blasting is to- Eradicate rust, corrosion and dirt from the surface. Prepare the metal surface before painting and coating. What are the main shot blasting technologies? The two techniques or technologies extensively used for shot blasting are: ·           Wheel blasting In this technique, the shot blasting material is propelled to surface with the help of a rotating wheel. Hence the electric motor energy directly converts to kinetic energy. The turbine wheels used for the blasting are of massive capacity, i.e. 60 kg per minute to 1200kg. The massive size of holding ...

Why Choose Shot Blasting for your Metal Finish

Shot blasting machines in UAE are gaining immense popularity. The most prominent reason for this is the sandblasting process is environmental friendly than other means. It is also referred to as Dustless blasting. Steel shot blasting is the one most commonly used to peen and prepares surfaces. Read on to know more about shot blasting. What is sandblasting? The process that cleans a metal surface and makes it uniform for anti-rust coatings is sandblasting. It may also roughen or prepare the surface for paint and cosmetic finishing. In the sandblasting process a steady stream of abrasive materials mostly stainless steel shots are propelled against the surface. It may also be known as steel shot blasting. In most cases, stainless steel shots, i.e. circular-shaped pellets, are used for shot blasting. But chilled iron grit, carbon steel grit, cut wire shot and steel grit also extensively used depending on the surface. The size of these pellets is one to six mm in diam...
