AGTOS at Euroblech: Economical blasting of sheet metal parts
Many companies also require smaller sheet metal parts to be blasted. At the Euroblech 2022 trade show, blast machine manufacturer AGTOS will be showing, among other things, a drum blast machine in compact design.
In addition to sheet metal panels and profiles, smaller sheet metal parts, such as gussets and connecting sheets, are also required in many plants. These also need to be blast cleaned to remove welding residues, rust and impurities or to prepare for subsequent coating. At this year's Euroblech trade show, blast machine manufacturer AGTOS (Hall 26, Booth C20) will therefore be exhibiting a drum-type blast machine. One advantage of this machine type is its small "footprint" in the production hall, i.e. its compact design. Compared to other machine types, drum blast machines do not cause jamming and damage to the workpieces, even with small parts. The blasting process is automated and therefore requires less manpower.
Concepts for the processing of large parts will also be shown. AGTOS roller conveyor shot blast machines offer many advantages in terms of economical operation and maintenance. The manufacturer of special systems will present various solutions for the processing of very heavy or large dimensioned workpieces and constructions. The topic of digitalization will be addressed several times. Based on data collected and collated during the production process, conclusions can be drawn about the service requirements of the machines. This will be illustrated by examples at the booth. In the event of service, the recently introduced AGTOS Service App can replace planned and time-delayed visits by service specialists by providing in-time support. Sustainable production is becoming increasingly important. For this reason, the trade fair team uses concrete examples to show how high the consumption of individual processes is. In addition, there are indications of where energy and costs can be saved in blasting technology.
