AGTOS is a leading manufacturer of wheel blast machines used in surface technology. Since its foundation in 2001, the company has been developing customized solutions for various industries such as foundries, steel construction and mechanical engineering. In addition to new systems, AGTOS also offers used blasting systems and comprehensive services, including spare parts, inspections and modernizations. With locations in Emsdetten (Germany) and Konin (Poland), AGTOS ensures that customers are supported worldwide.
At Euroblech 2024, AGTOS will be presenting its latest technology in the field of surface technology, which is based on wheel blasting technology. In this process, small cast steel particles are thrown onto surfaces at high speed in order to process them. This technology is particularly suitable for various applications such as cleaning, roughening, hardening and finishing surfaces, creating a shiny and homogeneous structure.
One highlight of the trade fair is the wire belt shot blasting machine from AGTOS, which impresses with its high flexibility and wide range of applications. The machine uses a wire belt, similar to a wire mesh fence, but made of wear-resistant material. The parts to be processed are placed on this belt and processed simultaneously from above and below during the automated blasting process. A major advantage of this design is that the parts do not have to be turned over, which enables uniform processing.
The energy-intensive blast wheel blasting process is supported by powerful turbines that propel the blast media onto the surfaces using a paddle wheel principle. Depending on the materials to be processed and the specific requirements, different blasting media are used. Both aggressive and less aggressive agents are available to achieve optimum results. This machine is ideal for belt operation and enables fully automated, unmanned operation. AGTOS will be demonstrating at Euroblech 2024 how its advanced blasting technology enables efficient and precise surface processing.
