2. What is Shot Blasting? Shot blasting is a surface preparation method using high-velocity abrasive particles to clean, strengthen, or polish metal surfaces. The process removes rust, scale, paint, and other contaminants whilst creating optimal surface profiles for coating adhesion. Modern shot blasting machines integrate mechanical systems with precise control mechanisms, ensuring consistent results across automotive, aerospace, construction, and manufacturing industries. Machine Component Classification Core Components Supporting Components Safety & Control • Blast wheel assembly • Dust collection system • PLC control panels • Abrasive feeding system • Abrasive recycling system • Emergency systems • Cabinet chamber • Drive mechanisms • Safety interlocks • Work handling mechanism • Structural framework • Monitoring sensors

3. Blast Wheel Assembly: The Heart of Operation Critical Components • Impeller: Centrifugal force generation • Control cage: Abrasive flow direction • Blades: High-wear alloy construction • Housing: Protective enclosure The blast wheel rotates at speeds between 2,000-3,000 RPM, propelling abrasive media at velocities up to 100 metres per second for maximum cleaning efficiency.
