Blasting agent and blasting method

摘要

A system including at least one means for mechanical processing of surfaces, in particular steel or cast iron beads using a blasting agent (5). An additive (6) for degreasing and cleaning of the surface to be blasted (2) and/or of the blasting agent is provided with the blasting agent (5), and comprising a granular material (6), which exhibits a lower breaking strength under the mechanical stresses that the blasting agent (5) is subject to during the blasting procedure than the at least one means for mechanical processing of the surfaces themselves. As the granular material (6) breaks down, additional additive (6) is added into the blasting agent (5) such that the proportion of the additive (6) in the blasting agent mixture blend (5) remains largely generally constant even at a prolonged operation of the device.

主权项

1. A blasting system (1), including a blasting agent (5) for mechanical processing of surfaces (2) by blasting, said blasting agent (5) including steel or cast iron beads, characterized in that an additive (6) for degreasing and cleaning of surface contaminants on the surface to be blasted (2) is provided, said additive (6) comprising a granular material (6) which exhibits a lower breaking strength than a blasting strength of the blasting agent (5) under the mechanical stresses that the blasting agent (5) and additive (6) are subject to during the blasting procedure, said granular material (6) comprising perlite, wherein said granular material (6) is configured to be crushed during said blasting carried out in said blasting system (1), said crushed granular material exhibiting a greater surface area than that of uncrushed granular material additive (6) and of said blasting agent (5), for providing a surface to which said surface contaminants from the surface blasted (2) adhere.
