NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN TUMBLEBLASTING SMALL COMPONENTS

Wide scope for specialised customer requirements

Tumbleblast® T40 blast finishing system A new improved version of the automatic Guyson Tumbleblast® T40 system introduces new standard mechanical, pneumatic and electrical features, which not only improve environmental safety and speed of operation but also widen the scope for specialised customer requirements.

When used for light deburring of newly machined turned parts the combination of high velocity and superfine media proves to be highly effective in penetrating inside narrow threaded areas and difficult to reach inner recesses. Blast media selection is usually made from glass, metal, plastic or ceramic bead to create systems capable of deflashing small diecastings / thermoset plastic mouldings and carrying out most other surface cleaning and finishing operations.

Blast gun options include the use of two different sizes of high velocity beadblast gun, either aluminium or bronze bodied, custom tailored using a wide range of airjets in combination with ceramic, tungsten or boron carbide lined nozzles.

Several Tumblebasket® options cope with small or large batches of metal or plastic components. The standard basket takes loads of up to 35kg but can be converted to lighter loads using alternative insert baskets. Tougher polymer coated baskets are supplied where higher abrasion resistance is needed but where circumstances demand that highly sensitive surfaces, such as high quality surgical implants, must be kept free from ferrous contamination, both the baskets and cabinet flooring are supplied in stainless steel. Similarly superfine stainless steel beadblast media is employed to ensure total compatibility.

Improvements to environmental safety include an up-rated extraction system, which removes and filters dust-laden air from the blast chamber. In addition a new air wash directed at the inside surface of the door avoids spillages into the workshop area. A mechanical door interlock linked to the door air-wash prevents operator access until after the air wash has closed down.
