Steel fabricators blast beams, plates, pipes and welded frames to remove mill scale and rust before painting. Roller-conveyor and room machines from Airo Shot Blast Equipments are quoted to section size, weld density and the required Sa grade.
Send typical sections, paint spec and monthly tonnage for a budgetary quote.
Common production scenarios where shot blasting delivers the best finish, adhesion and throughput.
Pre-paint / Powder-coat prep
Remove mill scale and create a controlled profile for strong coating adhesion (Sa 2.5 / Sa 3).
Anti-corrosion surface cleaning
Uniform blast cleaning for steel plates, beams and fabricated structures before primer / epoxy.
Structural & fabrication lines
High-throughput processing on conveyor / roller lines with consistent finish and repeatable output.
Weld seam / scale removal
Clean weld areas, edges and heat-affected zones to improve coating quality and inspection readiness.
Deburring & edge rounding
Remove burrs and sharp edges on components for safer handling and better downstream fit-up.
Single-pass finish targets
Optimized media + wheel setup to achieve full cleaning in one pass with predictable surface profile.
A practical flow used on production lines to consistently hit Sa 2.5 / Sa 3 targets with the right profile.

Typical ranges for roller conveyor blasting lines. Final specs depend on job size, wheel count and finish target.
| Parameter | Typical value / range |
|---|---|
| Cleanliness standard | Sa 2.5 (standard) / Sa 3 (on request) |
| Throughput | 500–3000 kg/hr (depends on section size, rust grade & line speed) |
| Surface profile | Rz 40–70 µm (achieved by shot/grit mix and wheel parameters) |
| Blast wheels | 4–8 units (coverage on all 4 sides, depending on chamber design) |
| Throwing speed | 70–80 m/s (wheel dependent) |
| Abrasive recovery | Floor screw conveyor → elevator → separator → recirculation to wheels |
| Dust collection | Pulse-jet dust collector (fine dust capture; clean air return) |
| Primer window | Ideally within 4 hours after blasting (site conditions may vary) |
