One of the applications of the shot blasting machines is paint stripping. OMSG-Officine Meccaniche San Giorgio Spa (Italy) has designed and manufatured specific shot blasting machines for this application. Through the action of the metallic abrasive, it is possible to remove paint and to ricondition: cylinders, fire extinguishers, jigs, grids, etc. Exclusively with a mechanical operation.
If the thickness of the paint is particularly important, a pre-treatment with pyrolytic ovens or cryogenic treatment can be performed.
