This machine integrates shot blasting cleaning and high-efficiency dust removal functions, effectively solving the problem of dust pollution during the shot blasting process, while ensuring the cleaning effect of workpieces. This article will conduct an in-depth analysis of the Cyclone Cartridge Dust Removal Shot Blasting Machine from the aspects of working principle, structural composition, core advantages, application scenarios, installation and commissioning, and daily maintenance, to help readers fully understand its technical characteristics and practical value.

The working principle of the Cyclone Cartridge Dust Removal Shot Blasting Machine is based on the combination of mechanical shot blasting and two-stage dust removal (cyclone dust removal + cartridge dust removal). First, in the shot blasting chamber, the high-speed rotating impeller accelerates the shot material (such as steel shot, steel grit, etc.) to a high speed and projects it onto the surface of the workpiece. The impact force of the shot material removes oxides, rust, oil stains, and other impurities on the surface of the workpiece, and at the same time forms a certain roughness on the surface, which is conducive to the subsequent coating, spraying, and other processes. During the shot blasting process, a large amount of dust will be generated, which mainly includes the oxide layer peeled off from the workpiece surface, the broken shot material, and the tiny particles in the air. If these dusts are not treated in time, they will not only pollute the working environment but also harm the health of the operators, and may even cause equipment failure due to dust accumulation.

The dust removal system of the Cyclone Cartridge Dust Removal Shot Blasting Machine adopts a two-stage purification process. The first stage is cyclone dust removal. The dust-laden gas generated during the shot blasting process is sucked into the cyclone dust collector through the air duct under the action of the fan. In the cyclone dust collector, the gas rotates at a high speed along the inner wall of the cylinder. Due to the centrifugal force, the large-particle dust in the gas is thrown to the inner wall of the cylinder, then slides down along the inner wall to the ash hopper at the bottom, and is discharged through the ash discharge device. The cyclone dust removal stage can remove most of the large and medium-sized particle dust, reducing the load of the subsequent cartridge dust removal stage. The second stage is cartridge dust removal. The gas after preliminary purification by the cyclone dust collector enters the cartridge dust collector. The cartridge dust collector is equipped with multiple filter cartridges made of high-efficiency filter materials (such as polyester fiber, PTFE membrane, etc.). When the dust-laden gas passes through the filter cartridges, the tiny dust particles are intercepted on the surface of the filter cartridges, and the purified gas passes through the filter cartridges and is discharged into the atmosphere through the fan. In order to prevent the filter cartridges from being blocked by dust, the cartridge dust collector is usually equipped with an automatic ash cleaning device, such as a pulse jet ash cleaning system. The pulse jet ash cleaning system uses high-pressure air to periodically blow the filter cartridges, so that the dust accumulated on the surface of the filter cartridges falls into the ash hopper, ensuring the stable and efficient operation of the filter cartridges.

The structural composition of the Cyclone Cartridge Dust Removal Shot Blasting Machine is relatively complex, mainly including shot blasting chamber, impeller head, shot recycling system, dust removal system (cyclone dust collector + cartridge dust collector), electrical control system, and other components. The shot blasting chamber is the main place for workpiece cleaning, and its inner wall is usually lined with wear-resistant materials (such as manganese steel plates, rubber plates, etc.) to prevent the chamber body from being worn by the shot material. The size and shape of the shot blasting chamber can be customized according to the size and type of the processed workpieces. The impeller head is the core component of the shot blasting machine, which is responsible for accelerating the shot material. The performance of the impeller head directly affects the shot blasting efficiency and the cleaning effect of the workpiece. The impeller head is mainly composed of impeller, blade, directional sleeve, distribution wheel, etc. When the impeller rotates at a high speed, the shot material enters the impeller through the distribution wheel and the directional sleeve, and is thrown out by the blade at a high speed. The shot recycling system is used to collect and recycle the shot material after shot blasting, so as to reduce the waste of shot material and reduce the production cost. The shot recycling system usually includes a screw conveyor, bucket elevator, separator, etc. The shot material and dust mixture after shot blasting falls into the bottom of the shot blasting chamber, is transported to the bucket elevator by the screw conveyor, lifted to the separator by the bucket elevator, and the separator separates the usable shot material from the dust and broken shot. The usable shot material is sent back to the impeller head for reuse, and the dust and broken shot are discharged into the dust removal system.

The Cyclone Cartridge Dust Removal Shot Blasting Machine has many core advantages compared with other types of shot blasting machines. First of all, it has high-efficiency dust removal performance. The two-stage dust removal system (cyclone + cartridge) can remove more than 99.9% of the dust in the gas, and the emission concentration of dust is far lower than the national environmental protection standards, which can effectively protect the environment and the health of operators. Secondly, the machine has stable and reliable operation performance. The key components such as the impeller head and the dust removal system are made of high-quality materials and advanced manufacturing processes, which have good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, and can ensure long-term stable operation under harsh working conditions. Thirdly, the machine has strong adaptability. It can process various types of workpieces, such as castings, forgings, steel plates, profiles, etc., and can adjust the shot blasting intensity, shot blasting speed, and other parameters according to the different requirements of the workpieces, so as to achieve the best cleaning effect. In addition, the machine has the advantages of easy operation and maintenance. The electrical control system adopts PLC control, which has a friendly man-machine interface. Operators can complete various operations through the touch screen, such as starting and stopping the machine, adjusting parameters, monitoring the operation status of the equipment, etc. At the same time, the machine is equipped with multiple maintenance doors and observation windows, which is convenient for operators to inspect, maintain and repair the equipment.
