The process is performed in closed chambers, where a jet of millions of glass microbeads, moving in a stream of compressed air, is directed on the product surface using a specialized gun. The abrasive removes all contaminants from the surface without changing the part geometry or damaging the product. It allows even fragile materials to be handled gently with this method. Controlled plastic deformation of the metal surface forms a light work-hardening that improves the service performance of the product. Due to the matting effect, this method is often used for finishing aluminum parts.

Shot blasting is used for the production of metal parts subject to repetitive and cyclical stresses (landing gear, suspension parts, welding, engines, etc.). Faced with major safety constraints and problems of lightening the parts used, the interest of this technique is to be able to increase performance, slow down corrosion and increase the durability of the parts without increasing their weight. Our specialists can assist you in the development of your materials and products and in the control of industrial risks. At Mecasem, we have the latest shot blasting technologies at our disposal in order to best meet our customers' requirements. Our suspended load shot-blasting machine allows us to obtain a more varied range of impacts and opens up new perspectives for use.

WIWOX® SD rounded cut wire shot is mainly used for cleanblasting and shot peening. Depending on the quality of the raw material used, different hardness classes are obtained. We supply non-corrosive cut wire shot that meet the requirement of particularly high demands. Cylindrical cut wire shot blasting abrasives are cut from wire. The length of the grain is equal to the diameter. Grain shapes of different roundness are produced through the subsequent rounding of the cylindrical raw material, rounded from G1 – G3. Cut wire shot has a particularly long service life and are known for low dust generation.

Plastic is a thermoplastic and belongs to the organic polyamidebased blasting abrasives. WIWOX® KS nature high-quality blasting and deburring medium is particularly suitable to treat duroplast and rubber components without damaging and matting them. Available in cylindrical or exact cubic shape, it is characterised by high impact strength, dimensional stability and extremely long service life. We also supply an antistatic agent for subsequent or sustained application in liquid form.

Plastic blasting abrasives type WIWOX® KS have been specially developed for optimum, chemically neutral surface treatment and all gentle cleaning – especially for plastic and light metal. They are mainly used for paint stripping, roughening, matting, deburring and cleaning. Plastic blasting abrasives produce consistently high quality and do not cause any damage to the work piece to be treated.
