What are the applications of aluminum shot in blasting treatment?
Aluminum shot is mainly used for surface blasting treatment of aluminum, zinc or thin-walled workpieces. It can effectively improve the smoothness and roughness of the workpiece surface, and aluminum shot blasting can be mixed with stainless steel shots in a certain proportion to have a significant whitening effect on the workpiece surface.
Specific application scenarios of aluminum shot in blasting treatment:
1. Surface blasting treatment: Aluminum shot is mainly used for surface blasting treatment of aluminum, zinc or thin-walled workpieces. By spraying aluminum shot at high speed, the oxide layer, dirt and other impurities on the surface of the workpiece are removed to form a clean and smooth surface.
2. Whitening effect: The mixed use of aluminum shots and stainless steel shots can significantly whiten the surface of the workpiece, and is suitable for workpiece processing that requires high finish and aesthetics.
Advantages of aluminum shot in blasting treatment:
1. Improve surface quality: Aluminum shot can remove the oxide layer and dirt on the surface of the workpiece through high-speed spraying, forming a high-quality surface and providing a good foundation for subsequent processing.Improve fatigue strength: Aluminum shot treatment can generate compressive stress on the metal surface, improve the fatigue strength and crack resistance of the material, and extend the service life of the workpiece .
2. Enhance coating adhesion: The increased roughness of the metal surface after treatment helps to improve the adhesion of the coating and reduce the risk of peeling and falling off.
3. Optimize the sandblasting effect: Aluminum shot can remove surface defects first, making the subsequent sandblasting process more efficient and achieving more ideal surface roughness and treatment effects.
4. Adaptable to a variety of materials: Aluminum shot is not only suitable for materials such as aluminum and zinc, but can also be used for surface treatment of a variety of metal materials.
5. Save time and cost: The pretreatment step can greatly reduce the time required for subsequent sandblasting and reduce production costs.
6. Environmental protection and safety: Aluminum shot processing produces less waste, the operating environment is relatively safe, and it meets the environmental protection and safety requirements of modern industry.
Aluminum shot Application areas:
Descaling, deburring, eliminating surface defects, removing internal stress, etching, etc. in metal die castings, precision castings, hardware tools, machinery manufacturing, instrumentation, pump valves, steel structures, bridges, ships, auto parts and other industries Surface treatments such as matte effect, smoothing, strengthening, and anti-rust before spraying.
In summary, aluminum shot has a wide range of applications and significant advantages in blasting treatment, and can significantly improve the quality and treatment effect of the workpiece surface.
