Compact swing chamber shot blast machine features robotic workpiece handling
- May 6, 2024
- Product Release
- Finishing
Rösler offers the compact RWK 6/12-2 swing chamber shot blast machine. Equipped with automated workpiece handling and requiring little space, it can be integrated into linked manufacturing lines. The furnished digitization software package provides process and cost transparency and helps minimize overall personnel requirements.
The machine can be used for all kinds of shot blast applications like surface cleaning, desanding and descaling, surface homogenization, and shot peening. Workpieces treated in this machine include castings and forgings, machined components, welded sheet metal parts, and technical springs. With little programming, a standard industrial robot handles the workpieces by placing them into the blast chamber and removing them after completion of the blast cycle. A clamping mechanism in the blast chamber holds the workpieces in place during the shot blast process.
In its standard version, the unit can handle workpieces with diameters of up to 600 mm and lengths up to 1,200 mm. The dual-chamber design allows workpiece loading/unloading in one chamber while the shot blast process takes place in the second chamber.
