How should small casting manufacturers choose shot blasting machine
Shot blasting machine is a necessary equipment for foundry manufacturers. Manufacturers who compare production volume can generally choose the type of equipment to use based on output, variety, specifications, etc., and select the efficiency of equipment according to the required production efficiency.
 1. Choose the appropriate equipment according to the actual production situation
1. It can be selected according to the production method of the equipment and the size of the workpiece. For example, the production mode includes vertical and horizontal automatic production modes. In this production mode, the workpiece can be divided into non-fear-proof and fear-free Mode processing of workpieces that are not afraid of touching, there is a type of equipment that can handle the effect well is a continuous pass type equipment, and the drum type and the multi-angle swing bed type can also have a good shot blasting effect. For processing workpieces that are afraid of collision, the effective equipment is roller type or mesh belt type.
2. The shot blasting equipment to be used can be selected according to the type of workpiece and the cost of investment and maintenance. For example, the swing bed type equipment is suitable for the processing of automobile parts and compressed mechanical parts, which requires high investment costs and low maintenance costs. For another example, the drum-type equipment is suitable for processing castings of less than forty kilograms and each large weight of not more than 1,200 kilograms. The investment cost is moderate, the maintenance cost is relatively low, and the production efficiency is high. The rubber-made track-type equipment is suitable for processing a single piece of less than 30 kg of workpiece, will not be stuck, but it is afraid of bumps and the maintenance cost is relatively high.
 2. Other matters needing attention when purchasing
1. When purchasing, pay attention to whether the temperature that can be reached when the equipment is shot blasted meets the temperature of the casting. When the casting is produced, the manufacturer will have a different cooling time. Sometimes it may enter the equipment and the temperature is still very high. The corresponding equipment needs to meet its temperature conditions. When purchasing shot blasting equipment, manufacturers should pay attention to the temperature of the workpiece that the equipment can handle. For example, the temperature of the workpiece has a Baidu. Of course, rubber-type equipment cannot be used. Steel should be used. Material equipment.
2. When purchasing, you should pay attention to the configuration of the equipment, such as the model of the shot blaster, the power consumed, the number of shot blasters, where the shot blaster will be installed, etc., and the power should be selected as far as possible to ensure productivity Smaller shot blaster. In this way, a certain cost can be saved, and there will be a relatively small loss, so that the corresponding maintenance cost will also be less.
3. Attention should be paid to the selection of sealing components. For movable components such as catenary, structural components with labyrinth type diversion function should be selected as much as possible. The materials selected can be hard protected. For the selection of the chamber body and the door, try to choose products that will not deform. The separator of the shot blasting machine should be based on the sand content of the casting.
      Therefore, if a small foundry manufacturer wants to buy a suitable shot blasting machine, then it may be helpful to refer to the above points to choose the appropriate one.
