Shot-Peening
Systems
Though the visual appeal of a shot peening machine is very similar to a conventional ‘blast cleaning’ machine, the process is quite different.
Shot peening is all about controlling the process of blasting. Shot peening is driven, protected and monitored by audits and specifications. Conformance to such audits and specifications is the only way one can achieve repeatable, accurate and consistent peening results.
At the core of all blasting processes is the concept of transferring impact energy on to the component being processed. In shot peening, the effectiveness of the procedure depends on monitoring and controlling the impact energy by its major constituents – air pressure, media flow rate, constant media size, media shape and several other parameters. Buffalo Manufacturing offers a variety of Empire shot-peening platforms to meet any customers part configurations and specifications.
