The applications of shot blasting machines in the automotive industry are mainly for anti-rust treatment, stress elimination of the steel plates, early detection of workpiece defects, and removal of welding slag.ATHI helps automotive manufacturers constantly improve the dynamic strength and service life of the workpieces and prepare surfaces for further mechanical treatment.
Surface Finishing Solutions for Automotive Industry
Nowadays, as the first choice for people to travel, the car’s safety performance is significant. With the continuous development of the automobile industry, the fatigue life of automobile parts has gradually become the focus of attention. Whether forged, cast, or die-cast, the components on the vehicle need a surface preparation with a shot blasting machine, and then the parts can last longer. Shot blasting machine plays a pivotal role in the automotive industry, with solid strengthening technology, significantly improving the safety, service life, and corrosion resistance of automotive parts and removing impurities such as rust, oxide scale, and burrs.
We can complete the surface treatment of essential vehicle components such as transmission components, axles, chains, clutches, springs, sanding, and coring. We align all products and processes to the customer’s specific production line.
Select the appropriate shot blasting machine according to the structural materials of accessories.
ATHI SHOT BLASTING
Some small auto parts and automotive beams generally choose the Hanger Hook Shot Blasting Machine according to the process and application requirements. The hook can realize forward or reverse rotation to ensure the cleaning effect. Large blasting capacity and high blast speed turbine can significantly improve cleaning efficiency and achieve satisfactory quality.
The material of the automobile wheel hub is generally Aluminum, and manufacturers will use a Hanging Chain Conveyor Shot Blasting Machine for surface cleaning according to the structural characteristics. It can remove the sand, rust, scale, and dirt attached to the surface of the workpiece so that the workpiece presents a clean surface. It eliminates the internal stress of the workpiece, improves the fatigue resistance, increases the painting adhesion of the workpiece, and finally improves the workpiece’s surface and inner quality. The hooks are equally spaced, advance at a continuous speed, and have an ongoing operation and high production efficiency, which can realize fixed-point cleaning of workpieces and fixed-point loading and unloading.
The manufacturing process of gears and torsion bars is precise. Considering the effect of surface hardness and heat treatment on the surface, it is necessary to use a Rotary Table Type Shot Blasting Machine for surface strengthening treatment. It is ideal for cleaning the surfaces of thin walls, flat and afraid of collision parts, and heat treatment workpieces. It has extensive loading and high blasting coverage. After the shot blasting, the gears can have a long service life and stable internal structure, which improves the car’s safety.
The chassis has a long span and a complex structure, but there is a specific datum plane so that you can use the Roller Conveyor Type Shot Blasting Machine. Computer simulation optimizes blast wheel layout. The kinetic energy of upper and lower steel shots is evenly distributed. The roller conveyor system is compact and dense, and the roller conveyor mechanism can run forwards and backward.
Steel Structures Roller Conveyor Shot Blasting Machine is suitable for surface cleaning of swing bolster, side frames, automotive engines, and various batches of castings and forgings in rolling stock factories, such as crankshafts and connecting rods. It gives the cleaned workpiece a clean and bright metal surface and improves the coating quality of the workpieces. It has the characteristics of compact structure, high efficiency, and good cleaning quality.
In the automotive industry, the shot blasting of the body steel plate is particularly important. The H Beam Section Steel Roller Conveyor Shot Blasting Machine can relieve the stress of the steel plate and find the defects on the workpiece and welding slag as soon as possible. It plays the role of cleaning the surface in the preliminary work of the automobile steel plate and provides the surface coverage for the later work, which increases the automobile’s appearance.
