How to choose the right blasting system for your part and output

• Small parts and complex geometries — components with cavities, threads, irregular profiles or hard-to-reach areas that require direct operator control.
• Small or varied batches — when parts change frequently and do not justify a fixed automatic installation.
• Precision finishes — glass bead shot peening, decorative blasting on stainless steel, surface matting that requires controlled uniformity.
• No blast room infrastructure needed — the enclosed cabinet contains abrasive and dust; it does not require a dedicated room or large external ventilation system.

• Parts or structures too large for a cabinet — chassis, beams, tanks, mobile equipment, steel doors, structural steelwork.
• Maintenance and repair work — where the operator needs to move around the part with the blast gun.
• Variable batches of large parts — when geometry or size rules out an automatic machine.
• Higher output than a cabinet — the room can accommodate multi-tonne parts and operate at higher pressures.

• High volume and repeatability — production lines processing the same part in large quantities.
• Maximum output per cycle — centrifugal blast wheels project far more abrasive volume than any manual system.
• No operator-to-operator variation — the process is automatic; results are consistent regardless of operator.
• Production line integration — continuous pass, batch, or robotic systems for automotive, structural, or other parts.

Note: cabinets and blast rooms use compressed air (manual nozzle). Centrifugal blast wheels cannot use aluminum oxide or sand — only metallic shot/grit.
