Bead blasting in the manufacturing industry offers a versatile array of finishing applications, catering to a wide range of materials and components. Some key finishing applications achieved with wet blasting include:
Removes effectively contaminants, oils, and residues from manufacturing components, ensuring a clean and pristine surface for further processing or assembly.
Provides an ideal surface preparation for coatings such as paint, powder coating, or plating. It enhances adhesion, extends coating lifespan, and contributes to improved corrosion resistance.
Wet bead blasting is highly effective in removing burrs, sharp edges, and flash from metal, plastic, or composite components, resulting in smoother surfaces and enhanced safety.
Removes rust and corrosion from metal components, rejuvenating surfaces and extending the lifespan of machinery and equipment.
Cleans scales formed during heat treatment processes, ensuring a clean and uniform surface on metal components.
Wet blasting is used for shot peening, a process that imparts compressive stress on the surface of metal components to improve fatigue resistance and enhance mechanical properties.
It is suitable for cleaning intricate or complex components, including those with intricate geometries, ensuring thorough and uniform cleaning in hard-to-reach areas.
In plastic and rubber manufacturing, wet blasting efficiently cleans molds, removing residues, release agents, and contaminants, ensuring consistent product quality.
Wet bead blasting is utilised for cleaning delicate electronic components, removing flux residues, soldering residues, and contaminants without causing damage.
