Equipment Selection
How to Choose Wet Blasting Equipment
The equipment format is a starting point. Define the part, treatment and production requirements together before agreeing on a configuration.
Define the Workpiece and Holding Arrangement
Provide a drawing or representative sample, the material and dimensions, and the surfaces to treat. Identify critical dimensions, edges or surfaces that need protection. Discuss how the part will be clamped, supported or moved so that the treatment can reach the intended surfaces.
Specify the Treatment and Acceptance Criteria
Describe the incoming condition and the cleaning, edge preparation or surface treatment you need. Agree how the result will be assessed. Select Abrasive Media alongside the equipment and processing conditions; a model name alone does not establish the finish a particular part will achieve.
Plan Part Handling and the Production Route
Share the part mix, batch sizes and required production rate. Consider single-piece, tray-based, fixture-based or continuous handling with the cleaning, rinsing and drying stages the application needs. Confirm which functions and loading arrangements belong to the proposed configuration.
Confirm Installation and Process Conditions
Review the available footprint, access, electrical supply, compressed air and water requirements. Where a route includes chemical phosphating, as in PH14000, include that stage in the process review. Evaluate representative parts against the agreed criteria before finalizing the equipment specification.
