What is Overhead Conveyor Shot Blasting Machine with Hook?

An Overhead Conveyor Shot Blasting Machine with Hook is a specialized industrial device designed for surface treatment of medium to large-sized components, including fragile and sensitive parts that cannot be processed in bulk. This machine is ideal for heavy and complex-shaped workpieces such as casts, welded constructions, forged parts, and pressed components.

Key Features and Components

1.Overhead Conveyor System:

Workpieces are hung individually or in clusters on revolving hooks attached to a closed-loop conveyor system. This allows for continuous movement through the blast chamber.

2.Blast Wheels and Nozzles:

High-efficiency blast wheels or nozzles propel abrasive media (such as steel shot or grit) at high speed onto the workpieces, ensuring thorough cleaning and surface preparation.

3.Abrasive Circulation and Separation System:

The machine includes a bucket elevator, screw conveyor, and abrasive separator to recycle and clean the abrasive media, reducing waste and operational costs.

4.Dust Collection System:

An integrated dust collection system captures and filters dust generated during the blasting process, ensuring environmental compliance.

5.Control System:

Equipped with a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) system for precise control over the blasting process, including conveyor speed, blast intensity, and other parameters.

Technical Parameters

1.Workpiece Capacity:

Weight range: 5 kg to 10,000 kg or more.

2.Conveyor Speed:

Adjustable speed: 0.3-5 m/min.

3.Blast Nozzles:

Blast volume: 200 kg/min per nozzle.

Power: 11 kW per nozzle.

4.Surface Finish:

Achieves a high-quality surface finish suitable for further processing such as painting or coating.

Applications

1. Structural Steel: Cleaning and surface preparation for large steel structures.

2. Mill Scale Removal: Effective in removing mill scale from steel components.

3. Paint Preparation: Prepares surfaces for painting or coating by creating a uniform texture.

4. Reconditioning: Used for descaling, derusting, and reconditioning in the metalworking industry.

Benefits

1. Efficiency: The continuous process allows for high production rates and consistent results.

2. Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of workpiece sizes and shapes.

3. Environmental Protection: The enclosed system and dust collection unit minimize environmental impact.

4. Customization: The machine can be tailored to meet specific requirements, including workpiece size and production capacity.

This type of shot blasting machine is particularly useful for industries that require high-quality surface treatment of heavy and complex components, such as automotive, shipbuilding, and construction.
