  2. Sandblasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandblasting

    Sand blasting is also known as abrasive blasting, which is a generic term for the process of smoothing, shaping and cleaning a hard surface by forcing solid particles across that surface at high speeds; the effect is similar to that of using sandpaper, but provides a more even finish with no problems at corners or crannies.

  3. Powder-actuated tool - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powder-actuated_tool

    Powder-actuated tools come in high-velocity and low-velocity types. In high-velocity tools, the propellant charge acts directly on the fastener in a process similar to a firearm. Low-velocity tools introduce a piston into the chamber. The propellant acts on the piston, which then drives the fastener into the substrate.

    A patented AR-15-pattern is produced with a bolt design featuring a redesigned extractor intended to improve the extraction of cartridges under adverse conditions. The company also produces a redesigned bolt carrier intended to improve the reliable performance of the rifle's “internal piston” system by obtaining a similar timing sequence with 14.5-inch carbine-length barrels compared to 20 ...

    Dustless Blasting - Alternative process to sand blasting. Works by mixing water and abrasive inside the blast tank. By introducing water, the mass and energy output by the machine is drastically increased, all while eliminating dust.

  6. Pneumatic tool - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatic_tool

    A pneumatic tool, air tool, air-powered tool or pneumatic-powered tool is a type of power tool, driven by compressed air supplied by an air compressor. Pneumatic tools can also be driven by compressed carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) stored in small cylinders allowing for portability.

    A 1/2" drive pistol-grip air impact wrench. An impact wrench (also known as an impactor, impact gun, air wrench, air gun, rattle gun, torque gun, windy gun) is a socket wrench power tool designed to deliver high torque output with minimal exertion by the user, by storing energy in a rotating mass, then delivering it suddenly to the output shaft.

  8. Powder coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powder_coating

    Heat-sensitive carbon fiber tubes coated with a UV curable powder coating. Powder coating is a type of coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder.Unlike conventional liquid paint, which is delivered via an evaporating solvent, powder coating is typically applied electrostatically and then cured under heat or with ultraviolet light.

  9. Needlegun scaler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Needlegun_scaler

    A needle gun has a set of very fine chisels known as needles. The tool forces these needles against a work surface at variable speeds up to around 5,000 times per minute. [3] [2] Different models offer choices of number of needles, operating speed, and power levels. [3] Many models use compressed air, although electrical needle-guns do exist ...
