Model 9 Rotary Blast Systems
The 4 × 4 × 4-foot blast chamber is fitted with a powered adjustable-speed turntable from 12 to 36 inches in diameter. With a few exceptions, where selective blasting is confined to a target area that can be covered by a few blast guns locked in fixed position, most Model 9 automated blast machines have […]
RSSA-8 Single Spindle Blast Systems
This automated blast machine has a slightly larger blast chamber and footprint than its sibling, and it shares the same production capacity. Process parameters and automated blast routines for a range of similar components, including spindle rotation speed and gun motion can be stored and recalled by the rotary blast system’s programmable automation controller.
RSSA-6 Single Spindle Blast Systems
This compact work-cell-sized blast machine model has become very popular for relatively low volume or single-piece-flow production. A component is fixtured on the spindle or table and rotated at controlled and adjustable speed as it is exposed to the blast from multiple blast guns or pressure-blast nozzles, which may be adjustably bracketed in fixed position, […]
R-800 & R-900 Rotary Table Blast Systems
R-800 and R-900 Rotary Table Blast Systems Continuous table rotation in the R-series machines keeps an operator busy turning, unloading and loading parts, and it can be a very productive method of blast processing. Our R-800 has up to 8 suction-blast guns and a table diameter of 36 inches in a blast cabinet with a […]
Robot-On-Rail Blast Systems
For precision blast treatment or surface preparation of extra-bulky or long components, including aircraft structural parts, Guyson designs and builds custom-engineered systems with a 6-axis robot riding on a rail the runs the length of the blast cabinet. The linear travel of the nozzle manipulator is controlled as a seventh axis of robotic motion. Multiple […]
SUCTION-BLAST BASICS: OPTIMIZING MEDIA FLOW
Suction-blast machines are the most common blast cabinets in use, and Guyson’s Tech Support team regularly answers questions about how to get the maximum performance from suction-blast guns. If you are not sure if you are working with a suction-blast gun, it is easy to recognize, because it has two hoses attached to it, one […]
ROBOTIC TOOL-CHANGING BLAST SYSTEMS: 3 TYPES
A shot peening system or grit-blast machine that changes blasting tools, quickly and conveniently switching from one blast media to another or one type of nozzle to another has a huge impact on the efficiency of blasting operations. A tool-changing robotic blast system can make separate machines unnecessary and dramatically change the footprint, manpower requirements […]
