ROBOTICALLY LOADED INDEXING GRIT-BLAST SYSTEM
Guyson Corporation has designed and built an automated indexing table grit-blasting machine integrated with a component handling robotic arm that loads parts onto the blast system from an in-feed conveyor and unloads them to a take-away conveyor. The unmanned Model RX-1400-RB is capable of process cycle times under ten seconds. The robot selected for […]
2012 TAX INCENTIVES FOR CAPITAL EQUIPMENT INVESTMENTS
New machinery purchased and installed during 2012 qualifies for special 50% Bonus Depreciation and Section 179 expensing of $125,000 on new equipment investments up to $500,000. This favorable tax treatment for manufacturers’ capital equipment investment is set to expire December 31, 2012, and it is uncertain what the 2013 tax climate might be. Passed into […]
MULTI-TASKING ROBOTIC BLAST SYSTEM
Guyson Corporation has designed and built a robotic pressure-blast machine that operates either as a seven-axis rotary table surface preparation system or as a horizontal roller blasting system for preparing inside and outside diameter surfaces of hollow shaft components. The multiple-mode concept makes a separate roller blast machine unnecessary. The multi-tasking robotic blast cabinet features […]
COMPACT ROBOTIC PRESSURE-BLAST SYSTEM
Guyson Corporation has extended its range of robotic surface treatment equipment to include a 7-axis direct pressure blast machine with a work envelope of 30 x 40 x 30 inches and a small overall footprint for lean, workcell-based component processing. A 6-axis robot is securely mounted on a rigidly welded pedestal attached to the rear […]
DUAL STATION SHOT BLASTING CABINET
Guyson Corporation has introduced a wide body industrial pressure-blast cabinet with two operator work stations, each having its own view window and independently adjustable blast nozzle. The customized dual station Model 7 shot blasting system allows a single user to change positions and conveniently reach all aspects of a five-foot-long component, or two people can […]
CONVEYOR BLAST MACHINE WITH GUN OSCILLATION
Guyson Corporation now offers its Model TR-900 through-belt conveyor blast systems with an oscillator to provide reciprocating motion of the blast guns, reduce the number of nozzles required for uniform coverage and lower the blasting machine’s compressed air requirements. In the pass-through TR-900 finishing system, components are conveyed in and out of the blast chamber […]
ROBOT TENDED SPINDLE-BLAST MACHINE
Guyson Corporation has integrated a machine-tending robot to automatically load and unload its RXS-900 rotary spindle blast system in an unmanned or lightly-attended blast finishing work cell. The component-manipulating robot and automated spindle-blast system are capable of supporting a faster pace of blast treatment and higher production volume than a human operator could handle. Based […]
