There are multiple classification methods for common shot blasting machines. Divided by structure and usage scenarios, common models include drum shot blasting machines, track shot blasting machines, hook shot blasting machines, and through shot blasting machines. The drum type shot blasting machine is usually suitable for surface cleaning and strengthening of small parts. It continuously rolls the parts inside the drum through the rotation of the drum, and the shot blasting machine shoots the pellets at high speed onto the surface of the parts for treatment. Track type shot blasting machines are commonly used for surface cleaning of castings, forgings, stamping parts, etc. that are not afraid of collisions. The movement of the track drives the workpiece to receive the impact of the shot in the shot blasting chamber. The hook type shot blasting machine is mainly designed for large workpieces or workpieces with large individual weights. The workpiece is lifted into the shot blasting room by the hook for shot blasting treatment, and can be used in combination with a single machine or multiple machines. The through type shot blasting machine is suitable for continuous batch production of workpieces. The workpieces are continuously transported into the shot blasting chamber through the conveying system, undergo shot blasting treatment, and then sent out, resulting in high production efficiency.

The functional feature of the drum type shot blasting machine is that it can perform comprehensive shot blasting cleaning on small parts, effectively removing impurities such as oxide scale and rust on the surface of the parts, and strengthening the surface of the parts to improve their fatigue strength and other performance. Moreover, due to the enclosed structure of the drum, it can effectively control the splashing of projectiles and reduce pollution to the working environment.

The functional advantage of the track type shot blasting machine lies in its significant cleaning effect on the surface of castings and forgings, which can effectively remove surface sand, burrs, etc., and improve the surface quality of workpieces. The smooth rotation of the track enables the workpiece to receive uniform projectile impact in the shot blasting chamber, ensuring consistent cleaning effect. Meanwhile, the track type shot blasting machine has a relatively large load-bearing capacity and can handle workpieces of a certain weight.

The main function of the hook type shot blasting machine is to meet the shot blasting needs of large workpieces. It can adjust the lifting capacity of the hook and the size of the shot blasting chamber according to the size and weight of the workpiece. During the shot blasting process, various parts of the workpiece can be covered by the shot through actions such as lifting and rotating the hook, achieving comprehensive cleaning and strengthening. For some large workpieces with complex shapes, the hook type shot blasting machine can also perform shot blasting tasks well.

The outstanding function of the through type shot blasting machine is to adapt to large-scale continuous production, and its conveying system can be adjusted according to the production pace to achieve rapid conveying and shot blasting of workpieces. It can perform shot blasting cleaning on workpieces of different specifications, and adjust shot blasting parameters such as shot speed, flow rate, etc. according to the material and surface requirements of the workpiece to achieve the best shot blasting effect. The automation level of the through shot blasting machine is relatively high, which can reduce manual intervention, improve production efficiency and product quality stability.
