36 BLAST CABINETSSpeedy cleanGuyson International has recentlyinstalled a specially configured GuysonEuroblast 7PF (Pressure Fed) blastcabinet into one of the world’s leadingdesigners and manufacturers of switchgearand instrumentation. The cabinet is toprovide a blast etched surface, on their rangeof high voltage busbars, to improve adhesionof a special non-conductive coating.The company’s existing blast cabinetsystem had suffered from several operationalproblems, so the search was on for animproved solution with better blast mediahandling and operator efficiency. With threetenders in place, the operators andmaintenance manager visited Guyson’s‘component finishing centre’ at Skipton to tryout Guyson’s proposed manual blast systemon their components. “All of the operatorsbought into the Guyson blast unit straightaway and it was their unanimous preferredoption” said their maintenance manager.The chosen Euroblast 7PF blast cabinet isfrom Guyson’s premier industrial qualityrange and delivers exceptional componentaccess, with doors opening to the front, topand side, and so facilitates easy loading ofcomponents. In fact, with the blast chamberbeing oblong rather than square in shape, itproves a popular choice amongst customersfor blasting longer components. But due tothe length of some of their copper, silver andtin electro-plated busbars being even longerthan the width of the Euroblast 7PF cabinet;a special cabinet design was needed.This was drawn up, in 3D CAD, byGuyson’s in-house design team andincorporated a700 mm extension box on the left handside of the cabinet, supported by legs, and acut out profile in the right hand door (withblanking door to prevent media escape) sothat longer busbars can be fed into thecabinet for selective blast etching. Theremainder of the pressure fed blast systemincludes a Guyson’s G27 pressure pot, C800twin cartridge dust collector and a ‘HighEfficiency’ cyclone. This latter item isdesigned to remove the majority of dust andfines from reaching the dust collection unit,thus extending the life of the filter cartridgesbetween changes.Guyson Euroblast PF systems are designedfor speed, giving faster cleaning times (up tofour times faster than suction fed or venturisystems) to meet higher productionrequirements and at peak demand this blastsystem can be working for the entire lengthof a full shift so it is necessary that the blastsystem quickly produces a perfectly keyedsurface for the powdered coating to adhereto in the oven.Finishing - January/February 2020
