Precision Blasting: Technical throughput, grade-A results
Guyson manufacture a wide range of manual, automated and robotically controlled blasting technology, highly suitable for use across the medical industry.
The smallest of the range includes the micro-blasting Pencil Blaster system, compatible with Guyson’s Formula and Euroblast systems, which delivers precision blast cleaning of delicate components, prevalent in the industry, as well as selective deburring and casting investment removal.
Guyson’s Mediblast stainless steel, beadblasting cabinet, specially engineered for medical product manufacturers and laboratories, where the introduction of ferrous contamination would be detrimental to the production process, is utilised for technical surface preparation of medical implants, surgical instruments and dental bridge work. This uniquely designed medical blast cabinet is compatible with a variety of blast media types and grades.
Amongst the automated range of blast systems are the Guyson Multiblast machines, designed to deliver outstanding quality and repeatability for individual components produced in volume. Notably these systems are highly ideal for grit blasting implants prior to HAp coatings. Guyson’s custom made twin Multiblast RXS900 machine is utilised for computer controlled shot peening orthopaedic hip stems and glass bead decontamination blasting.
