Does too much shot blasting cause excessive strengthening of the workpiece surface
DATE:2024年03月13日HITS:
Yes, excessive shot blasting volume can lead to surface damage of the workpiece.
When the shot blasting volume is too high, it means that a large number of abrasive particles are impacting the workpiece surface with greater intensity. The high impact force can cause excessive material removal or wear on the surface, resulting in surface damage. This can manifest as scratches, dents, or even deformation on the workpiece surface.
Surface damage can have detrimental effects on the workpiece, compromising its structural integrity, dimensional accuracy, or surface finish. It can also lead to increased surface roughness, which may not be desired for certain applications.
To prevent surface damage, it is crucial to carefully control the shot blasting volume and optimize the shot blasting parameters. This includes selecting appropriate abrasive particles, adjusting the blasting time, nozzle distance, and angle, and ensuring proper velocity and coverage of the abrasive particles. By finding the right balance, the shot blasting process can effectively clean and condition the workpiece surface without causing excessive damage.
