Processes such as blast finishing, cleaning, deburring, cosmetic finishing and surface preparation can be achieved, whilst delivering fast cycle times and repeatable process quality with limited manual labour input.
High performance aerospace fasteners can be found in engines, wings, fuselages, and landing gear. Other markets such as medical technologies, autosport racing, marine applications and gas turbine engines all demand aerospace quality fasteners.
Other typical components for batch blasting include: deburring small gears, surface finishing rivets after heat quenching, shot peening springs and the surface preparation of castings.
Cleaning Springs
Springs can be solvent cleaned used our Microsolve precision cleaners to remove mineral drawing oil from the formed springs, before heat treatment, and then subsequently descaled in the T50 Tumbleblaster to produce an improved surface finish or shot peened to increase component service life.
