Selection of Steel Shot Models:

In any application field, the quality of steel shots and steel grits is the key to efficient operation. It determines whether energy can be effectively converted during use to achieve cleaning and strengthening effects, and also affects the processing cost. The selection of steel shots is directly proportional to work efficiency, and choosing the right steel shot model is the core to improving work efficiency.

Key points for correct steel shot selection:

1.The model and specification of steel shots are mainly determined by the type of workpieces to be processed. Aluminum shots and copper shots are usually used for non-ferrous metals.

2.Steel shots are suitable for ordinary steel weldments, castings and steel materials.

3.Larger diameter of steel shots leads to higher surface roughness of the processed workpieces, along with higher work efficiency.

4.Irregularly shaped steel grits or cut wire shots have higher processing efficiency than spherical shots, but result in higher surface roughness. Shots with high processing efficiency also cause faster wear to the shot blasting equipment, yet the wear is not severe when calculated by service time compared with the consumption efficiency. The hardness of cast steel shots is directly proportional to the processing speed, but inversely proportional to the service life.
