Sandblasting machine uses sandblasting technology for surface treatment and cleaning. The main principle is to spray sand particles or other granular materials at high speed to impact the surface to remove dirt, oxide layer, paint, etc., and obtain the required roughness and finish. Sandblasting machines are usually composed of sand blasting guns, pressure tanks, sandblasting tubes, etc. During operation, the pressure tank is filled with granular sand or other granular materials, which are sprayed onto the surface to be treated through the sandblasting gun to achieve the purpose of cleaning or treatment. Sandblasting machines are widely used in various industries, such as automobile manufacturing, ship repair, bridge construction, anti-corrosion treatment, pressure vessel cleaning, etc. It can remove rust, paint, old coatings, etc. on the surface of the steel, and can also clean dirt and oxide layers on the surface of tiles, glasses, and plastics.
Characteristics of Sandblasting Machine
- High efficiency: Sandblasting machine can quickly and efficiently clean and process the surface of various materials, reducing time and cost.
- Simple operation: The equipment is easy to operate. And operator needs to control the operating handle and the angle and intensity of the sand spray to complete the operation, which reduces the threshold for use.
- Good decontamination performance: The sandblasting machine effectively removes various dirt, such as oil, rust, and oxide, from the surface of the workpiece through the impact of high-speed sand particles.
- Good processing effect: The sandblasting machine can roughen, deburr, and remove paint on the surface of the workpiece to improve its surface quality and processing accuracy.
- Low maintenance cost: The sandblasting machine has a simple structure and is easy to maintain and repair, which reduces its maintenance cost.
Precautions for Use of Sandblasting Machine
- Before using the sandblasting machine, you should read the instruction manual carefully and operate it correctly according to the requirements of the instruction manual.
- Wear protective equipment such as goggles, gloves, dust masks, protective clothing, earplugs, etc. before using the sandblasting machine.
- Check the equipment regularly to ensure that the machine is in good condition. Before operating the sandblasting machine, check whether the machine is operating normally and ensure that the nozzle, spray gun and other parts are intact.
- When using the sandblasting machine, ensure that the ventilation equipment is operating normally to reduce dust pollution. After the work is completed, the ventilation and dust removal equipment should continue to operate for five minutes before shutting down to exhaust indoor dust and keep the site clean.
- When inspecting or maintaining the sandblasting machine, the power supply must be cut off first to ensure safety.
