Optimized CO2 snow blasting systems. Modification of CO2 snow blasting systems to increase blasting performance
Abstract
CO2 snow blasting as a cleaning method is well suited for automated applications. Advantageously, the machining is free of residues of the blasting agent, the low blasting performance being its main disadvantage. To increase the performance of the CO2 snow blasting process, the influence of flow and process parameters on CO2 snow generation has to be known. For this purpose, container pressure, the geometry and the position of the agglomeration chambers as well as integrated baffles were analyzed.
