Sand blasting cabinet is a closed cabinet like structure in the sand blasting machine. It is used to blast the part and can also help in re-cycling the abrasive and dust particles. Due to its additional features of re-cycling of abrasive and dust particles cabinet type sand blasting machines are mainly manufactured for the cleaning of machines in large industries. Sand blasting cabinet machines are basically used for cleaning purpose of small sized equipment. Also they can be beneficial for improving the surface of components by removing rough edges, scratches and contaminant particles out of them.

The main components of sand blasting cabinet are:

  •   Cabinet
  •    Abrasive blasting system
  •    Abrasive re-cycling system
  •     Dust collector

Sand blasting is operated by the operator from the outside of the cabinet. The operator needs to keep his arms inside the gloves which are attached to holes on placed on the cabinet. Through a vision glass, the part is viewed and the on/off operation of machine is carried out with the help of footswitch.

There are three main principles of sand blasting cabinet.

·        Pressure sand blasting cabinet: The abrasives are pressurized inside the vessel at the same pressure as that of hose which is attached to the bottom of the vessel. Sandblast nozzle is used to spray out the abrasive media with the help of compressed air.

·        Suction sand blasting cabinet: The vacuum is created in the Y gun through which the abrasive is sprayed out by the negative pressure at the component.

·        Wet sand blast cabinet: Both water and abrasives are sprayed out by compressed air. It is mostly used in removing oil and grease.

 

 

According to the shape and size sand blasting cabinet are of two types.

·        Small sand blasting cabinet:  In this type blasting of small components such as automobile component, broken chargers, turbo chargers, and turbochargers is done.

    I'm a painter and I use steel shot to prepare metal surfaces for painting. It leaves a smooth, even surface that the paint adheres to very well. You can also, purchase steel shots online from shot blaster.
