Shot Blast Machine | PeddiBlast
Published 05/30/2017
Peddinghaus machines are the world leaders in structural steel fabrication technology.
Steel fabricators that own Peddinghaus machines uphold an advantage in the steel industry and have the ability to optimize tonnage capacity.
The PeddiBlast, powered by SciteeX, is the quad turbine powerhouse of any fabrication shop. Clean steel is the crucial first step to better welds, better paint and better steel out the door.
The steel fabrication industry is forever innovating forwards.
The PeddiBlast CNC shot blasting system rises to the challenge of new techniques for structural steel. Intumescent paint is the next wave of fire protection for steel buildings.
This coating excels at reducing the conduction of heat from flames during fire incidents, safeguarding the building's structural integrity.
Many fabricators are adopting this protective coating process. The prerequisite for intumescent paint is steel completely clear of any surface scale, rust, and other debris. The PeddiBlast blasting chamber is ideal for ensuring that steel surfaces are ready for primers and intumescent coatings with its perfectly pitched quad turbine configuration.
Accomplishing cleaner air and cleaner shops downstream, rust, dust, and scale never leaves the PeddiBlast.
Many shot blasters run one profile at a time, hazardously in the "I" position.
The PeddiBlast can operate on multiple beams simultaneously by safely laying them in the "H" position as they travel through and exit the blast chamber.
Finished smooth surfaces enhance readable piece marks and other project information placed on the material.
Blasting plate ensures the best weld adhesions prior to primers and other coatings.
PeddiBlast is designed for maximum descaling with minimum noise levels at top speed, improving safety across the entire shop.
Sound dampening roller doors help keep sound to an operable hum. The quad turbine configuration operates at thirty six hundred RPMs, translating to over five hundred fifty pounds per minute of steel shot hitting the beam at over two hundred miles per hour. Nothing left but a perfect steel surface.
Coupled with the machine's capability to clean twenty feet of steel per minute, there's nothing more efficient at processing beams, angles, channels, tubes, and plate than the PeddiBlast. The PeddiBlast transfers dust through its filters, recycles unused shot through the dual shot separation system, and seamlessly ushers beams through the blasting process.
The machine's design features 18 access points for operators to add shot, change filters and simplify all other forms of maintenance.
The PeddiBlast is safe. I can lay down the beams and keep them in one position throughout the whole process. We can blast, uh, twice as much at the same time so it picks up production. It helps us with consumables. The clean steel really does not chew up the, uh, consumables like it would. Secondly, it helps the welders immensely and right now with that PeddiBlast we're probably putting a number six commercial blast on everything, so the primer adhesion is really tremendous with it. So it just gives us final a better final product when it goes out the door.
Loaded with safety features the PeddiBlast employs material detection sensors, an adjustable abrasive brush and a 10-station filtration unit that eliminates the need for additional ducting. Abrasive containment curtains deflect unused shot to be recycled and repurposed over and over again. When the shift is done the PeddiBlast proves that it can provide a profitable benefit to a fabrication shop and its customers.
Manual blasting, not worth the mess.
Outsourced blasting, not worth the cost.
Failed paint adhesion, not worth the time.
The PeddiBlast, worth every second of blasting.
