This system is designed to grit blast aero turbine engine blades prior to coating operations. Racked parts are conveyed into the load station where an ABB IRB-2400 robot picks the part and inserts it into the blast system. Inside the blast cabinet, a second ABB robot manipulates a direct pressure blast nozzle to target all key surfaces. A Shotmeter particle velocity sensor is used to check the blast stream velocity to ensure consistent process.
