Shot Blasting
Shot blasting or blast cleaning is a process in which an abrasive material is accelerated through a pressurized nozzle or centrifugal wheel and directed at the surface of a part to clean or otherwise prepare the part surface for further treatment. Shot blasting can be used on castings, forgings, structural beams, channels, plate or plate cut-outs, stampings, and a wide variety of parts and materials to produce a uniform surface texture and for descaling, deburring, and deflashing. Fatigue resistance is imparted to the material due to compressive stresses produced at the surface. Shot blasting is used in a wide variety of industries including automotive, marine, mining, and medical applications.
