What are the advantages of sandblasted ceramic pellets?
Sandblasted ceramic pellets has the following characteristics:
High hardness: The main component of ceramic beads is zirconium oxide, which has the characteristics of high hardness and high wear resistance, with a Vickers hardness of 700HV and a Rockwell hardness of 600HRC, which can provide good surface treatment effects.
High toughness: It has good toughness, is not easy to break, can be recycled repeatedly, and has a long service life. The number of recycling times can reach 25 times that of glass beads, and the sandblasting efficiency is high, which reduces the number of material changes and working costs.
Low damage: It causes little damage to the surface of the workpiece and can maintain the smoothness of the workpiece surface.
High efficiency: Compared with glass sand, sandblasted ceramic pellets has a longer service life, reduces the numer of material changes, and improves work efficiency.
High surface finish: Sandblasting with ceramic beads can achieve a smooth satin finish effect, and the surface roughness Ra value is 60-70% lower than that of glass beads, and the workpiece surface is smooth and undamaged.
Good environmental performance: Ceramic beads is not easy to generate dust during the sandblasting process, which reduces dust pollution and improves the working environment.
Wide range of application: Ceramic beads is suitable for surface treatment of various metal and non-metal materials, such as titanium alloy, magnesium alloy, aluminum alloy, stainless steel, carbon steel, brass and alloy, acrylic, plastic, etc. It will not react or oxidize with metals, and there is no metal residue.
Applicable to a variety of sandblasting methods: Ceramic beads is suitable for dry and wet sandblasting, with little wear on sandblasting equipment and a smooth surface.
What’s the use for sandblasted ceramic pellets?
There’re many uses for ceramic beads, mainly including the following aspects:
Mold cleaning: sandblasted ceramic pellets is suitable for mold cleaning, which can effectively eliminate the stress in the mold, improve the surface quality of the mold, and extend the service life of the mold.
Surface treatment: In terms of surface treatment, ceramic beads can be used for sandblasting of various metal and non-metal materials, such as aluminum alloy, titanium alloy, stainless steel, carbon steel, brass and alloys. It will not react or oxidize with metals, will not affect the color of the workpiece, and is suitable for dry and wet sandblasting.
Surface strengthening: In terms of surface strengthening, ceramic beads can be used for shot peening of metal parts and shot peening of light alloy parts to improve the surface hardness and wear resistance of parts.
Beautification treatment: In terms of beautification treatment, sandblasted ceramic pellets can be used for beautification of the back shell of electronic products such as mobile phones, providing a smooth satin finish.
Other applications: sandblasted ceramic pellets is also suitable for plastics, electronics, automotive industry and other fields. For example, it is widely used in low-temperature trimming of plastic parts, deburring of circuit boards, and anti-fatigue treatment of the surface of automobile shock absorber springs.
