The YG industrial shot blasting machine, also known as an industrial shot blasting cleaning machine or automatic shot blasting machine, is an industrial device that uses high-speed projectiles to impact the surface of workpieces, achieving rust removal, oxide scale removal, deburring, and surface strengthening. Its core function is to improve the cleanliness and roughness of workpiece surfaces, laying the foundation for subsequent painting, welding, and other processes. It is widely used in the surface pretreatment and strengthening of various metal workpieces and is an indispensable key piece of equipment in industrial production. Traditional manual rust removal and small polishing equipment are not only inefficient and produce uneven cleanliness, but also suffer from high labour costs and environmental non-compliance. The YG industrial shot blasting machine, as a professional device integrating intelligent control and high-efficiency shot blasting technology, has become the preferred choice for industrial surface treatment due to its core advantages of precise rust removal, multi-condition adaptability, and environmental protection and energy saving. It can be flexibly combined with steel shot blasting machines, hanger-type shot blasting machines, and other specialised equipment according to the workpiece type, perfectly adapting to the needs of mass production and handling irregularly shaped workpieces.

YG Industrial Shot Blasting Machine Working Principle: A Simple and Easy-to-Understand Intelligent Shot Blasting Logic
The core working principle of the YG Industrial Shot Blasting Machine is to propel abrasive media onto the workpiece surface using a high-speed rotating impeller. The impact force of the abrasive media removes impurities and strengthens the surface. The entire process can be divided into four key steps, which are simple and easy to understand:
Step 1: Workpiece Conveying and Positioning. Depending on the workpiece type, the appropriate conveying method is selected. Flat workpieces are conveyed via a roller conveyor shot blasting machine, while irregularly shaped workpieces are conveyed via a hanger-type shot blasting machine. The workpieces are smoothly fed into the enclosed shot blasting chamber, and the equipment automatically positions the workpiece.
Step 2: Abrasive Media Acceleration and Projection. After starting the equipment, the motor drives the shot blasting impeller to rotate at high speed. The abrasive media enters the impeller from the media hopper and is accelerated to high speed by centrifugal force. It is then uniformly projected onto the workpiece surface at a preset angle, impacting and removing scale, rust, burrs, and other impurities.
Step 3: Abrasive Media Recycling and Dust Treatment. After impact, the abrasive media falls to the bottom of the chamber. A sorting device screens out qualified abrasive media, which is then returned to the media hopper for recycling. Impurities are collected and processed. Simultaneously, the dust collection system operates, absorbing the dust generated during the process, and the purified air is discharged after meeting standards.
Step 4: Workpiece Output and Inspection. After processing, the conveying system sends the workpiece out of the shot blasting chamber. Operators can inspect the cleanliness of the workpiece surface. If secondary processing is required, parameters can be adjusted through the control system, and the workpiece can be sent back into the chamber for processing, achieving automated continuous production.

What Are the Core Differences Between Shot Blasting Machines and Sandblasting Machines? How Do You Choose the Right Equipment for Your Project?
I. Different Core Working Principles
YG Industrial Shot Blasting Machine: Uses centrifugal force to drive a high-speed rotating impeller, which accelerates and propels abrasive media (steel shot, cast iron shot, etc.) onto the workpiece surface. The impact force of the abrasive media achieves rust removal, descaling, and other effects, operating in an “active projection” mode.
Sandblasting Machine: Uses compressed air to drive a high-pressure airflow, which propels abrasive media (quartz sand, corundum, etc.) onto the workpiece surface. Cleaning is achieved through the impact force of the airflow, operating in a “airflow projection” mode.
II. Different Media and Characteristics
Shot Blasting Machine: Uses metal abrasive media (such as steel shot, cast iron shot), which are highly durable and reusable (recycling rate above 98%). It combines cleaning and surface-strengthening functions, suitable for slight shaping of the workpiece surface.
Sandblasting Machine: Primarily uses non-metallic abrasive media (quartz sand, corundum, etc.), which are mostly single-use. A wide range of abrasive particle sizes is available, providing stronger cleaning power, but without surface strengthening effects.
III. Differences in Applicable Scenarios and Effects
Shot Blasting Machine: Suitable for batch processing of industrial workpieces (such as steel structures, automotive parts), offering high efficiency and a large processing area. It allows for automated continuous operation, achieving uniform cleanliness (Sa2.5-Sa3.0 grade), and simultaneously increasing the surface hardness of the workpiece, preparing it for painting and welding processes. For example, the YG industrial shot blasting machine, when combined with a roller conveyor shot blasting machine, can efficiently process large quantities of sheet metal.
Sandblasting Machine: Suitable for small batches, irregularly shaped workpieces, or high-precision cleaning requirements (such as moulds, precision parts). It can specifically treat corners, crevices, and other hard-to-reach areas, but its efficiency is lower, and dust pollution is relatively more severe, requiring enhanced dust removal measures.
IV. Different Energy Consumption and Environmental Costs
Shot Blasting Machine: Abrasive media are reusable, resulting in low long-term operating costs. Combined with a pulse dust removal system (purification rate ≥99.5%), it offers strong environmental compliance and is suitable for large-scale production.
Sandblasting Machine: Abrasive media are single-use, resulting in high consumable costs. High-pressure airflow consumes significant energy, and dust emissions are higher than those of shot blasting machines, leading to higher environmental treatment costs.
Summary and Selection Recommendations
When to choose a shot blasting machine? If your workpieces are large steel structures, castings, or mass-produced metal parts, and you prioritise high efficiency, low cost, and environmental friendliness, then an industrial shot blasting machine is definitely the best choice.
When to choose a sandblasting machine? If your workpieces have extremely complex shapes (such as the internal cavities of precision moulds), are thin or fragile (prone to deformation from high-intensity impact), or you only need to perform occasional small-area rust removal, a sandblasting machine will be more flexible.
