Blast and Paint Facilities for Foundries

OFFERING UPGRADES OR NEW TURN-KEY FACILITIES FOR FOUNDRIES

BlastOne are experts in the design, engineering, construction and support for blasting and painting facilities in foundry environments. We have some clients that only need paint and blast equipment for completing their project, or some just need design engineering services to conceptualize their plan, others seek upgrades to existing equipment, and still others need full turn-key supply and construction of the facilities. We are noticing a trend in the equipment industry, whereby managers are finding themselves under quality, profit margin, and/or production pressures – leading to interest in ways of automating their processes. In the right circumstances, BlastOne has robotic and semi-autonomous solutions which can revolutionize production times.

Quite a few foundries have difficulty with slow production times associated with blasting and painting their components. For others, they may struggle with maintenance costs that are through the roof related to old abrasive recovery systems, or insufficiently sized blast booths that are not made to handle their product components.

In general, most facilities struggle with a high staff turnover rate in these departments where training is very important. BlastOne has automation solutions for your business that will solve these issues. BlastOne can design world class facilities on your site that are highly productive, produce consistent results, and have low operational costs to help mitigate all these concerns.
