Replacing Vibratory Finishing With Dry Shot Blasting

CASE STUDY www.transmet.com (614) 276-5522 engineering@transmet.com Shot blasting (abrasive blasting) is a dry process more efficient than vibratory finishing. The cleaning and polishing of parts is fast when blasted with a soft, metallic media like Cast Zinc Shot or Cast Aluminum Shot. Blasting with Cast Zinc Shot will provide temporary rust prevention when ferrous parts are involved, eliminating the possibility of additional steps. TRANSMET APPROACH Vibratory finishing is a time-consuming and chemically-intensive process that requires the proper balance of media and cleaning agent. It is a wet process with potential to cause discoloration of parts being cleaned. An additional drying process is required. When ferrous parts are involved, vibratory finishing can cause flash rust a
