Titan Plating's Dry Bead Blasting Expertise
Versatile Surface Preparation
Dry bead blasting cleans and smooths surfaces, preparing them for electroplating (e.g., copper, gold) or painting, ideal for diverse substrates with quick processing.
Broad Material Compatibility
We blast ferrous metals like steel and non-metals, removing rust and contaminants to create clean surfaces for subsequent treatments across industries.
Customised Finishing Solutions
From light cleaning to heavy-duty surface prep, our blasting suits prototypes or high-volume parts, ensuring precise results for bonding or coating applications.
Considerations for Dry Bead Blasting
Dry bead blasting is highly effective, but certain factors need attention. These are managed through precise control to deliver tailored surface preparation.
Material Compatibility
Suitable for ferrous metals like steel and some non-metals, but care is taken to avoid over-abrasion on delicate surfaces.
Surface Finish Control
Blasting achieves a uniform finish, but intensity must be adjusted to prevent altering critical dimensions.
Dust Management
The process generates dust, requiring controlled environments to ensure safety and cleanliness.
Process Precision
Blasting is calibrated to avoid exceeding dimensional tolerances, maintaining part integrity for further treatments.
