For most of the big parts whose length/height exceeds 6 meters, our know-how experienced engineer team recommends using the horizontal conveyor system to solve the blast processing handling problems, like roller conveyor shot blasting machine and tunnel type shot blasting machine. Sometimes the end-user has space restriction problems, so they have to take the vertical type shot blasting machine into consideration which will greatly solve their space limitation problems.
But there are some potential safety hazards which the customer have to double think before choosing the vertical type shot blasting machine.
First of all, during the parts lifting up from horizontal to vertical, it is not very easy for the hoist system to find the gravity center of the workpieces at once, especially for some giant parts which have multi-lugs and the parts will swing in uncertain directions. it will seriously damage the hoist system during this too.
Secondly, during transportation and rotation inside the blasting chamber, it also will sway cause the gravity center of the hanger system is not right.
Last but not the least, it also has big security problems during unloading from the overhead rail conveyor hoist system. No need to mention the height problem of the blasting machine which is way higher than the indoor roof, the end-user have to make a special shelter to do the weather-proof job for the blasting machine.
For all the blasting turbines, the optimal blasting distance from blasting turbines to parts surface is 600mm to 1000mm.
So the end-user should take all the effective factors into consideration which will affect their decision for making the right choice before invest. For most of the blasting job. The principle for choosing the type of machines is, the shot blasting machine blasting job should satisfy the majority shaped and sized parts firstly, and then consider the minority parts. sometimes the customer can not use one unit blasting machine to solve all the blast processing problems.
