Blasting Systems for Rollers and Cylinders
Blasting systems for rollers and cylinders
In addition to the etching of rollers, mattening, cleaning, roughening and the creation of a homogeneous surface are the most common applications for roller blasting.
For blasting of rollers, Problast® closed-circuit blasting systems are ideally suited.
For the necessary rotation of the rollers, our customers either use existing turning devices or lathes or use roller blasting devices from our product range.
If the shape of the rollers does not permit processing with a recovery blast gun or if manual reworking is required, closed roller blasting cabinets are used.
I. Roller blasting devices
Stationary or mobile roller blasting devices enable the connection of Problast® closed-circuit blasting systems.
For external or internal service providers, it can be useful to use mobile blasting units so that the rollers to be processed do not have to be transported over long distances.
Customised traversing devices make it possible to blast calender rolls in-situ at regular intervals in order to achieve a defined roughness.
II. Roller blasting cabinets
In cases where the shape of the rollers precludes the use of a recovery blast gun or manual reworking is necessary, the use of a closed blasting cabinet is required.
The blasting and blow-off nozzles are moved along the roller at a defined distance with the aid of a manipulator.
In addition to free-blasting nozzles, Problast® recovery blast guns can be used to blast with different abrasives or grain sizes and prevent them from mixing.
Which type of blast media?
Our blasting systems are suitable for all blast media that can be reused.
