ROBOTIC LANCE BLASTING SYSTEM
Guyson Corporation has designed and built a robotic blast system with an extended lance nozzle for precision grit blasting and surface preparation of the inside diameters of industrial gas turbine components in manufacturing and repair operations. A Fanuc M-710iC robot is integrated into the blast system as the lance manipulator in an expanded process chamber […]
TIRE MOLD CLEANING QUICKLINKS
Mold Cleaning Media Dry blast mold cleaning systems can be used with a variety of different blasting materials that are available from Guyson, but there are strong reasons to specify Guyson Metalbead to protect your costly tooling from “induced wear” and to dramatically reduce media consumption and disposal costs of materials that break down rapidly. […]
INCOMING YASKAWA MOTOMAN ROBOTS
A pair of Yaskawa Motoman robots arrived at Guyson’s Saratoga Springs factory this month and are being prepared for integration into two robotic grit-blasting systems under construction for a leading investment casting manufacturer. Each Model MH-12 robot will be mounted on a reinforced pedestal fully inside the robotic blasting enclosure and will serve as a […]
WETTEST SUMMER YET… FOR WET BLASTING SYSTEMS
Guyson has welcomed in the new season with a strong flow of new orders for its automated wet blasting equipment, making it the wettest summer on record. Made up of a mix of re-orders from previous customers who already own wet blasting machines made by Automated Blasting Systems prior to its 2013 acquisition by Guyson and orders […]
COSMETIC FINISHING BY BEAD BLASTING
Bead blasting is one of the go-to techniques that is most widely used in blasting applications that are mainly focused on improving the appearance of a component. This type of work is often referred to as cosmetic finishing. Glass bead is the most commonly used media for cosmetic finishing, in fact, many people use the term […]
Robotic Wet Blast Systems
Many different types of wet blasting systems are suitable for robotic automation. In most cases, the robot is integrated with the slurry-blast cabinet as a nozzle manipulator, with one or more wet blast guns bracketed to the end of the articulated arm. Rotary spindle wet-blast systems may have a servomotor drive, so the rotation or […]
RX-800-RB Robot Tended Multi-Process Cell
In this example of robotic automation, loading and unloading of an indexing table bead-blast machine is only one of several things going on. Guyson designed, built and integrated several auxiliary devices to meet the customer’s requirements. Each component is inspected using a 2-D imaging system, carrier trays are re-oriented and stacked for use in automated […]
