Wheelabrator Group is offering two model types of Spinner Hanger machines: WS 2/275 and WS 4/210A.
Each machine is designed to handle the cleaning and preparation of odd-shaped parts and components that cannot be adapted to a table or Tumblast machine.
Parts are loaded onto a work fixture hanger, rotated during the blast cycle and cleaned from multiple angles.
This blast coverage can adapt to a broad range of production requirements.
Facilities with limited work space can benefit from the compact size of both machines.
The two models are suitable for the following applications: diecast deflashing, scale and rust removal, peening, profiling, and surface finishing.
The WS 2/275 Spinner Hanger is built from 3/8in thick manganese steel for protection in steel shot applications.
Each work fixture connection consists of a 2in diameter steel shaft protected by a specially fitted sleeve for connecting customer supplied work fixture, and it rotates in two externally mounted bearings at approximately 15rev/min.
The rotation is achieved by a gear motor driving a solid rubber tyre.
The system has two single-sided blast wheel units that are seven bladed and direct driven by a 7.5HP motor.
The WS 4/210A Spinner Hanger is built with a four compartment turnstile manufactured from 3/8in manganese steel plate.
The system consists of two 13.5in diameter Autoblast wheel assemblies direct driven by 10HP motors.
Each chamber features one hook mounted to a 2in diameter steel shaft where parts and components are attached and rotated at 15rev/min.
The system comes equipped with easy access index buttons and a stop/start light control located at the load station for indexing the turnstile.
