Hanger Type Shot Blasting Machine

Surface treatment is a crucial process in modern industries like automotive, aerospace, construction, and metalworking. One of the most versatile and widely used shot blasting machines in this sector is the Hanger Type Shot Blasting Machine. Known for its efficiency in cleaning and finishing components of varying shapes and sizes,…
What is a Hanger Type Shot Blasting Machine?
A Hanger Type Shot Blasting Machine is a specially designed shot blasting system that uses a hanging hook or hanger to hold workpieces during the blasting process. It is particularly suitable for parts that are delicate, complex in shape, or too large for tumblast - type machines.
This machine is designed to clean, descale, remove rust, and prepare the surface of parts made of steel, iron, or non-ferrous metals. It's commonly used for castings, forged components, welded structures, and other intricate metal parts.
Working Principle of Hanger Type Shot Blasting Machine
Loading: Components are loaded onto a hanger, which can be a rotating hook, I-beam trolley, or monorail system.
Blasting Chamber: The hanger enters the blasting chamber, where multiple high-speed blast wheels shoot abrasive media (steel shots or grits) onto the surface of the parts.
Rotation: The hanger rotates during blasting, ensuring even exposure and cleaning from all angles.
Abrasive Recycling: Used abrasive media is collected, cleaned, and reused in a continuous cycle.
Dust Collection: Dust and contaminants are extracted through a dust collector system to ensure clean and safe operation.
Unloading: Once the blasting is complete, the parts are automatically or manually removed for further processing or packaging.
Types of Hanger Type Shot Blasting Machines
Depending on the production requirement, hanger-type machines come in different configurations:
1. Single Door Hanger Type
Ideal for small to medium production volumes.
Manual loading/unloading.
Suitable for delicate parts and batch processing.
2. Double Door or Y-type Hanger Machine
Dual chamber system allows simultaneous loading/unloading and blasting.
Improves productivity in medium to high-volume operations.
3. Continuous Overhead Conveyor Type
Fully automated system.
Ideal for mass production environments like automotive or heavy fabrication.
Continuous loading of workpieces with minimal human intervention.
4. Robotic/Custom Hanger Systems
Integration with robotic arms or automated handling systems.
Highly customized for OEMs or aerospace applications.
Advantages of Hanger Type Shot Blasting Machine
Versatility: Suitable for parts of various shapes, sizes, and weights.
Gentle Handling: Ideal for components that can't be tumbled or require scratch-free treatment.
Superior Cleaning Quality: Multiple blast wheels ensure consistent and high-quality surface finish.
Productivity: Dual-door or continuous models offer high throughput.
Automation: Can be fully integrated into production lines for increased efficiency.
Safety & Cleanliness: Enclosed blasting chamber and dust extraction systems enhance operational safety.
Energy Efficiency: Designed to reduce abrasive and power consumption.
Applications of Hanger Type Shot Blasting Machines
Hanger type shot blasting machines are widely used across many industries:
Automotive: Engine blocks, suspension arms, brake drums.
Foundries: Casting cleaning for iron, aluminum, and steel components.
Fabrication Units: Welded structures, machine frames.
Aerospace: Complex and lightweight metal components.
Railways: Bogies, wheels, and underframe parts.
Construction & Infrastructure: Pipes, beams, and architectural steelwork.
Defense Equipment: Armored plates, vehicle chassis, and ammunition containers.
