Custom Vertical Blast System Revolutionizes Surface Preparation for Metal Sheet Processing

Guyson USA, a leader in automated surface preparation solutions, is excited to announce the release of its latest innovation, the TR-1000 Custom Vertical Blast System. This new, fully automated conveyor blasting system is engineered to optimize efficiency, precision, and safety, catering to industries such as aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing that require meticulous surface preparation for metal sheets, including titanium and other materials. Designed with advanced automation, the TR-1000 enhances the production process, delivering high-quality surface finishes that meet the demands of high-volume, industrial applications. The vertical design and custom conveyor system make the TR-1000 an ideal choice for companies looking to streamline operations while maintaining a reliable, high-quality finish on sheet materials.

Versatile Applications for High-Quality Surface Preparation

The TR-1000 was developed to accommodate a variety of metal sheets, from titanium to other alloys, ensuring a perfect finish on large quantities of sheet goods. Engineered for clients engaged in cutting, bending, and coating metal sheets, the TR-1000 provides consistent, high-quality results, making it an essential solution for manufacturers in need of precise surface finishes for etching, coating, and other preparation processes.

Key Features and Process Highlights

The TR-1000 Custom Vertical Blast System introduces several industry-first features designed to optimize efficiency and precision:

• Dual-Sided Blasting: Equipped with 18 oscillating blast guns, the TR-1000 blasts both sides of metal sheets simultaneously, significantly reducing cycle time and minimizing warping.

• Rapid Robotic Loading/Unloading: With automated loading and unloading via a robotic arm, handling time is drastically reduced, speeding up production cycles.

• Pre- and Post-Blast Cleaning: Sheets are first cleaned with compressed air to ensure optimal blasting conditions. After blasting, they undergo a second cleaning stage to remove any residual media before re-stacking.

• Enhanced Throughput: Capable of processing up to 300 linear feet per hour, the TR-1000 can manage approximately 45 parts per hour, providing a productivity boost for facilities with high-volume demands.

Cutting-Edge Technology for Improved Performance

The TR-1000 stands out with several custom innovations aimed at maximizing productivity and ease of use:

• Vertical Conveyor System: Conserves valuable floor space and improves accessibility for operators.

• “Super-Sack” Bulk Media Loading: Supports continuous operation with easy-to-manage media loading.

• High-Visibility Translucent Mixer Box: Allows operators to monitor media levels and functionality at a glance.

• Pneumatic Sheet Separation: Ensures smooth, uninterrupted operation with a robotic loading system that separates sheets seamlessly.

Customer Benefits

The TR-1000 was designed with the needs of customers in mind, providing benefits that include:

• Enhanced Efficiency: Compared to previous models, the TR-1000’s custom conveyor modifications reduce cycle time and improve overall cost savings, delivering a quick return on investment for high-volume production facilities.

• Unmatched Precision: The dual-sided blasting and carefully controlled airflow provide a uniform, consistent finish, ensuring quality in every batch.

• Safety and Compliance: Safety cages around robots and load/unload zones, along with standard interlocks, create a secure operating environment that complies with industry standards.

Guyson USA: Leading the Future of Surface Preparation

“With the release of the TR-1000 Custom Vertical Blast System, we’re setting a new standard in surface preparation for metal sheet processing,” said a company spokesperson. “This system’s efficiency, precision, and safety make it an ideal solution for manufacturers in industries that demand high-quality finishes and high-volume production.”
