[Case Study] Removal of rust from cast metal parts on-site.

Low-dust blast treatment sponge jet! Providing various cleaning and washing solutions!

We would like to introduce a case study that addresses the issues faced by our customer in glass manufacturing. They were troubled by the problem of rust forming on the cast parts used to protect the furnace heaters, which caused rust to fall and adhere to the products. In response, we proposed on-site work using a "sponge jet," which involves blasting a media that contains aluminum oxide particles, a polishing material, encapsulated in a special urethane sponge. As a result, since there was almost no dust generated, it was possible to work without affecting the surrounding area by simply enclosing the workspace, and all processing was completed in one day without damaging the parts. [Issues] - There are over 200 parts, leading to the possibility of loss or mixing of parts. - The target parts are cast components that are prone to cracking. - The downtime of the furnace is short, requiring all rust removal work to be completed in one and a half days. - Since the work is done in the customer's factory using available space, sandblasting, which generates a lot of dust, cannot be used. - There are concerns that sandblasting may leave abrasive materials trapped in the gaps of the parts, causing defects. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*
