  2. Sandblasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandblasting

    Sandblasting equipment typically consists of a chamber in which sand and air are mixed. The mixture travels through a hand-held nozzle to direct the particles toward the surface or work piece. Nozzles come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and materials. Boron carbide is a popular material for nozzles because it resists abrasive wear well.

  3. Drilling and blasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drilling_and_blasting

    Drilling and blasting. Drilling and blasting is the controlled use of explosives and other methods, such as gas pressure blasting pyrotechnics, to break rock for excavation. It is practiced most often in mining, quarrying and civil engineering such as dam, tunnel or road construction. The result of rock blasting is often known as a rock cut.

  4. Dry-ice blasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry-ice_blasting

    Dry-ice blasting is a form of carbon dioxide cleaning, where dry ice, the solid form of carbon dioxide, is accelerated in a pressurized air stream and directed at a surface in order to clean it. [1] The method is similar to other forms of media blasting such as sand blasting, plastic bead blasting, or sodablasting in that it cleans surfaces ...

  5. Blasting machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blasting_machine

    Blasting machine. Two blasting machines. At rear is one where the trigger works by depressing or raising the handle; at fore, one where the handle is twisted. A blasting machine or shot exploder (commonly called a plunger[citation needed]) is a portable source of electric current to reliably fire a blasting cap to trigger a main explosive charge.

  6. Sodablasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodablasting

    Sodablasting. Soda blasting is a mild form of abrasive blasting in which sodium bicarbonate particles are blasted against a surface using compressed air. It has a much milder abrasive effect than sandblasting. An early use was in the conservation-restoration of the Statue of Liberty in the 1980s. [1]

  7. Shot peening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shot_peening

    Shot peening. Shot peening is a cold working process used to produce a compressive residual stress layer and modify the mechanical properties of metals and composites. It entails striking a surface with shot (round metallic, glass, or ceramic particles) with force sufficient to create plastic deformation. [1][2] In machining, shot peening is ...
