Shot blast cabinet used by seated operator

A Guyson International product story
Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team Sep 15, 2006

For use with a wide variety of media for deburring, deflashing, descaling, cosmetic finishing or technical surface preparation, a compact blasting cabinet can be used by a seated operator.

Guyson International has in its large EuroblastR cabinet range a compact blasting cabinet that can be comfortably and productively used by a seated operator.

The Model SBP4 blast system can be equipped for use with a wide variety of media for work such as deburring, deflashing, descaling, cosmetic finishing or technical surface preparation; and is often used for processing medical implants prior to coating.

The SBP4 blast chamber is 50cm high at the back wall, 81cm wide and 61cm deep and the cabinet is fitted with a large abrasion-protected safety glass viewing window and the interior of the blasting enclosure is brilliantly illuminated ensuring good visibility.

A full-depth door on each side of the cabinet makes loading and unloading of components quick and convenient.

A variable height 'Select' model seated blast machine is also available in both manual and automatic adjustment models.

A single suction-blast gun and a blow-off air jet are mounted on a multi-adjustable, telescoping bracket attached to the back wall of the cabinet, which leaves both of the operator's gloved hands free for manipulation of components.

Foot switches activate the blast gun or the blow-off nozzle to enable efficient hands-free manual processing of small components with minimum waste of motion.

Alternatively, the blast gun and the air blow-off nozzle can be hand held.

The blast machine designer and manufacturer offer the SBP4 buyer a choice of two standard sizes of suction-blast guns.

The smaller Model 400 gun is recommended for precise and concentrated blasting of components that may have fine details.

The Model 900 gun is larger and more powerful, enabling faster coverage.

The cabinet can also be built with one of each size blast gun for maximum versatility.

Typical installations of the SBP4 include a cyclone reclamator to effectively separate reusable media from dust and fines.

The system is completed by a cartridge-type dust collector that features reverse air jet pulsing to back-flush the pleated paper filter and maintain its efficiency.

The cyclone and dust collector are also designed and manufactured by Guyson to optimise the performance of the cabinet blasting system.

Prospective users of Guyson cabinet-blast systems are encouraged to submit sample components for free laboratory testing and application engineering evaluation at the machine builder's factory in Skipton, North Yorkshire, England.
