Casting shot blasting presents significant practical advantages. Firstly, it enhances the surface integrity of castings. This increases their fatigue strength and makes resistance to corrosion easier. As a result the components have a longer lifetime than would be the case without the process Second, since the operation can process large amounts of castings at high speed its efficiency levels are first-class and this means that overall costs would naturally be lower. It reduces labour and raises rates of production. Third, shot blasting creates a perfect surface for coating applications that improves adhesion. The quality of the finish overall is thereby enhanced. Last but not least, this process is an earth-friendly one. It will not generate any toxic waste and so is in compliance with strict environmental regulations which has helped to bring down emissions of greenhouse gases since 1990.
