Inclined Belt Conveyor Machine IBC

Process Safe Blast Cleaning of Rotation Symmetric Workpieces

Castings such as brake discs, brake drums and wheel rims need to comply with stringent quality standards, making them vulnerable to shock and impact in the surface preparation process. The Wheelabrator Inclined belt (IBC) machine ensures shock-free transport while effectively exposing all surfaces to the blast stream, this reduces the cost per part by eliminating damage and waste, at the same time as improving the quality of the finish.

In surface treatment processes in which the movement of individual parts is not controlled, shock caused by contact between parts can damage surfaces. This, together with the inability to ensure consistent exposure to the blast medium and thus sufficient control of the finishing quality of individual parts, results in a higher than necessary scrap rate.

Suitable for single part weights of between 5 and 75 kg, the Wheelabrator Inclined belt machine has enabled many automotive parts producers to benefit from quality improvements and cost savings by protecting sensitive metallic parts while increasing productivity. With individual treatment processes, parts can be designed to be thinner and lighter in order to achieve higher performance results.
