Close Loop Continuous Conveyor
Shot Blasting Machine
A close-loop continuous conveyor shot blasting machine is a specialized industrial equipment used primarily for surface preparation and cleaning of large and heavy workpieces.
This type of machine operates in a closed-loop system, where workpieces are continuously fed into the blasting chamber via a conveyor belt, subjected to a high-velocity stream of abrasive material propelled by turbines or wheels. The abrasive material, typically steel shot or grit, is recycled within the system, filtered and recirculated to minimize waste and ensure cost-effectiveness.
The continuous operation of the conveyor system enables efficient processing of a high volume of workpieces with consistent quality and uniform surface finish. This type of shot blasting machine finds applications in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, foundry, and manufacturing, where precision surface preparation is crucial for subsequent processes like coating, painting, or welding.
