7. Maintenance
Blast machines are subject to wear. The rate of wear is determined by:
The speed of media passing over the component surface
The proportion of media to air exiting the blast nozzle
The angle of contact with component surface
Component material
Media coarseness and type used
The wear can be minimised by regular maintenance and monitoring settings particularly those
effecting localised wear.
The frequency of any maintenance and the replacement of parts are determined by the amount of
use, type of media used and the operating conditions. Maintenance intervals will be determined by
experience of machine-use over time. The following schedule is recommended for an initial trial
period until wear patterns are established.
ENSURE ALL AIR SUPPLIES ARE TURNED OFF AND THE SYSTEM IS
FULLY EXHAUSTED BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE
THE DUST COLLECTOR SHOULD BE FULLY ISOLATED BEFORE
PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE. A LOCK-OUT AND TAG PROCEDURE
SHOULD BE IN PLACE TO PREVENT THE MACHINE FROM BEING
STARTED PRIOR TO THE COMPLETION OF MAINTENANCE.
PPE: GUYSON RECOMMENDS THAT AS A MINIMUM, OPERATIVES
SHOULD USE A DUST MASK AND SAFETY GLASSES WHEN
PERFORMING MAINTENANCE OF ANY SORT.
REFERENCE SHOULD BE MADE TO THE MATERIAL SAFETY DATA
SHEET OF THE MEDIA BEING USED FOR ANY SPECIFIC PPE REQUIRED.
