Extended Height Blast System
October 14, 2002 - Saratoga Springs, NY, USA - Guyson Corporation has introduced a stretch model rotary table turbine-blast system designed for surface treatment of components up to approximately 30 inches in diameter and 47" inches in height. The Model GWB-402T is the latest one of five standard table blast models built by the New York company.
Workpieces are exposed to blast as they slowly revolve on the machine's heavily armored 40 inch diameter turntable. With its 2,000 pound load capacity, the unit's expanded work envelope enables treatment of tall pieces or components that are racked or fixtured to maximize the efficiency of processing. A separate version of the GWB-402T includes a powered rotary hook for occasional spinner-hanger blasting.
The GWB-402T is equipped with two 10 HP blast turbines, yet the high-cube machine still has a space-saving 60" x 60" footprint. It's standard dust separation and media reclamation system consists of a rotary sieve, a sensitive cascade airwash and a cyclone separator. A freestanding Guyson cartridge-type dust collector with 800 CFM air extraction capacity is also provided as standard equipment.
The turbine-blast machine can utilize a wide variety of metallic shot and grit blast media for cleaning and surface preparation work. The manufacturer claims its high performance reclaim system and other special features make the GWB-402T compatible with microscopic bead media used for non-destructive blast cleaning, as well as those that can produce subtle surface textures and distinctive appearances in cosmetic finishing applications.
Thick cast NI-HARD alloy armor plates line the rotary table and those areas of the interior of the chamber that are constantly exposed to direct blast from the turbines. The walls of the blast
cabinet have a heavy rubber lining for abrasion resistance.
Guyson offers an optional automatic compressed air blow-off for removal of dust and media at the end of the blast cycle. A transfer cart is available for loading, unloading and transport of heavy pieces. Satellite tables are also offered optionally.
Prospective users of the GWB-402T are encouraged to submit sample components for free laboratory testing to evaluate alternative finishes, compare the results with different media, or quickly obtain recommendations for efficient processing of the parts. A demonstration video is available on request to show the system in operation.
