| Abstract |
A review of methods of cleaning castings (manual, sand blasting) is followed by a description of blasting equipment (barrel, monorail, multi-table, blast room, rotary cage) designed to control dust and limit the silicosis hazard. A further development is automatic cleaning by shot blasting. A continuous blast cleaning machine built into the conveying and cooling system for the castings is described. The system is served by an apron conveyor and is completely enclosed as a dust and noise protective measure. Technical data are given. |
