Materials Used for Shot Blasting Machine
A variety of metal abrasives can be used through the shot blasting process. Generally, shot blasting material includes steel grit, copper shots, and aluminum pellets.
Steel grit: due to its toughness and recyclability, steel grit costs less than other abrasive media. This material can be used to remove contaminants on various surfaces.
Copper shots: with its bulk density and angular shape, the copper shots can clean the objects efficiently, greatly improving the production rate.
Aluminum pellets: aluminum pellets are of strong hardness and strength, so it can be applied to process metal surfaces prior to painting or coatings.
During some blast track shot blaster procedures, silica sand and glass beads are often used. The final results are mainly determined by the properties of the material.

Shot Blasting Machine Working Process
Shot blasting is often used to process larger objects which need a strong force and denser abrasive material to do the surface treatment. The shot blasting procedure refers to propel abrasive media against the surface of a metal object. Usually, used shot blasting equipment for metal surface protection and prior preparation so that the object can be further processed. The shot blasting process can also be used for rust cleaning and further metal fabrication.
Shot blasting machine is widely used in different industries, including aerospace and aircraft maintenance, shipbuilding, steel and aluminum casting, auto, painting, etc. The shot blasting process has already become an indispensable part of those industries that use metal.
Safety is the top priority during the working of shot blasting machine. If too much dust is produced through the shot blasting procedure, it may lead to serious health problems for operators. The shot blasting machine must be operated by well-trained workers under medical supervision. Another important factor to ensure the safe operation is to choose reliable shot blasting machine manufacturers. With more than 40 years’ experience in the industry, Qinggong Machinery is sure to supply high-quality and safe shot blasting equipment for your projects!

Advantages of Shot Blasting Machine
Removing Corrosion: Shot blasting can remove all forms of rust and corrosive materials from the metal surface while leaving the base of the product unaffected. Provides SA2.5-3.0 surface finish. Typical corrosive builds include as mention below: Rust, Mill Scale, Chemical Stains, Chipped or faded paint, Heat Treatment Scale.
Surface Preparation: Shot blasting is the most efficient and the most effective process to prepare a metal surface prior to painting or coating. High blast pattern accuracy, and much better bond between blasted surface & the protective coating. Aids in revealing any surface defects/errors. Increases the lifespan and the endurance of future coatings.
The Environment: Shot blasting is one of only a few environment-friendly options for corrosion removal and surface preparation:
The process only uses abrasive to clean the metal surface.
No chemicals used at all.
No acids.
Only cleanup is physical pellets.
Blasted steel shot and dust are swept away by powerful. High effective dust collection system, all dust collector with cartridge filter.
The process inherently recycles materials.
High-effective steel shot recycle system: All kind of shot blasting machine with high-effective steel shot, with screw conveyor, bucket elevator, separator, and strong hopper. Screw conveyor to reclaim the used blasting media and contaminants into the bucket elevator and then into the air wash cleaner system(separator), and then the cleaned abrasive get into the storage hopper to recycle, the residual will get out of the recycling system from the air wash cleaner system.
