Production – R&D
—— You are one step ahead with STR Strong Makine…
STR Strong Makine is a new-generation production and R&D brand, uniting quality and efficiency under one roof in sandblasting machine manufacturing. Since 2023, as we design and manufacture Hanger Shot Blasting Machine, Tumble Shot Blasting Machine, and Sheet & Profile Shot Blasting Machine solutions tailored to industrial requirements, we have standardized the criteria of precision engineering, safety, and sustainability in every project. On our production line, we operate with state-of-the-art machinery, robotic auxiliary processes, and traceability systems, ensuring every component is brought to life using the right materials and the right methods.
Our products are distinguished by their performance, low maintenance costs, and long service life. We develop machine architectures where part flow is optimized, abrasive consumption is minimized, and operator safety is maximized. For energy efficiency, we precisely size the fan, motor, and filtration components; we also shorten cycle times using smart control software. The testing mechanisms we implement at every stage of manufacturing validate critical parameters such as vibration, flow rate, surface homogeneity, and dust emissions. This allows us to predictably achieve the targeted surface quality in every sandblasting machine project.
Our customer-centric approach enables us to expand our standard product range with flexible configurations. Whether for hanger, tumblast, or sheet-profile lines, we offer custom designs and options based on part size, target roughness, capacity, and layout constraints. We fuel this entire process with our experienced R&D team’s culture of continuous improvement and valuable field feedback. The result: sandblasting solutions that are more durable, more efficient, and reduce operational costs.
On our Production and R&D page, you will discover our process approach, our quality control steps, and our customizable options. STR Strong Makine delivers the surface preparation quality you need today, fully equipped for the competitive conditions of tomorrow.
Strong Makine Factory
Strong Makine produces Hanger Type, Rubber Belt Tumblast and Sheet metal & profile Shot Blasting machines with advanced technology, strict quality control.
Production Approach
STR Strong Makine implements an end-to-end traceable process in sandblasting machine manufacturing. From material acceptance to machining, from cabin insulation to pre-dispatch validation, every step is documented with revision control, process plans, and measurement reports. Abrasion-resistant steels, manganese castings, and high-quality rubber linings are standard. For high efficiency, the turbine-blasting system is designed at an optimal angle and flow rate; the part flow on our Hanger Shot Blasting Machine, Tumble Shot Blasting Machine, and Sheet and Profile Shot Blasting Machine platforms is validated through simulations and field data.
Quality Control and Testing
Before entering mass production, products undergo FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) and DFM/DFA (Design for Manufacturability/Assembly) screening. Post-assembly, the following tests are performed:
- Dynamic balancing and vibration measurement
- Abrasive circulation flow rate and recovery efficiency
- Dust emission and filtration differential pressure
- Surface roughness (Ra/Rz) and homogeneity
Every machine is accepted after a test blast with a customer’s part. This discipline ensures stable surface quality and a low failure rate.
Energy and Sustainability
Fan and motor selections are correctly dimensioned according to system curves; the cycle is optimized using inverters. Abrasive consumption is optimized by improving the blasting wheel geometry and blade material. In filtration units, the cartridge area and pulse frequency are calculated to target low energy consumption and long cartridge life. Noise and dust levels are below regulatory limits. This approach significantly reduces energy bills and the total cost of ownership for the operation.
Flexible and Customizable Solutions
Every business has different part sizes, target roughness, and layout constraints. Therefore, we offer:
- Optional hanger configurations, tumblast volumes, and conveyor speeds
- Adaptable turbine power, blasting angle, and abrasive types
- Selectable automation levels (manual, semi-automatic, fully automatic)
- Ready-to-use MES/PLC/SCADA communication protocols for integration
Thus, the same platform delivers optimum efficiency in sectors like foundry, steel construction, automotive, and rail systems.
R&D and Innovation
Our R&D team conducts continuous improvement using field feedback and Design of Experiments (DoE). The balance between wear and efficiency in turbine blade geometry is developed through internal cabin flow simulations. In new model development, quiet operation, fast maintenance, and easy cleaning are priorities. Long-term endurance tests are performed on prototype machines. The resulting gains are regularly transferred to our Hanger Shot Blasting Machine, Rubber Belt Tumblast, and Sheet and Profile Shot Blasting Machine series.
Sectoral Applications
- Foundry: Removal of sand and mold residues, surface standardization
- Steel Construction: Pre/post-weld preparation, paint preparation
- Automotive: Homogeneous roughness on chassis, suspension, and gear components
- Rail Systems: Reliable surfaces on axles, wheels, brakes, and fastening elements
- Shipbuilding and Energy: Continuous line designs for large parts
After-Sales and Life Cycle
Installation and commissioning are provided along with training and a maintenance plan. Spare parts logistics ensure stock assurance for critical components. Remote diagnostics and periodic maintenance packages shorten downtime. Thus, your production, R&D, and operations teams achieve the predictability that comes with planned work.
Process Indicators and Analytics
Real-time sensors monitor current, pressure, flow rate, and temperature data. Alerts on the control panel make it easy for maintenance teams to take preventive action. Production reports present KPIs such as cycle time, blasting efficiency, and abrasive consumption with graphs. This transparency is the most practical way to continuously increase line efficiency.
Occupational Safety and Ergonomics
Cabin sealing, door safety interlocks, emergency stops, and dust collection performance are designed in accordance with CE requirements. Operator access points are positioned for short maintenance times; quick access is provided for filter cartridge replacement and turbine maintenance. Noise insulation and lighting levels support comfort during long shifts.
Documentation and Compliance
Exploded diagrams, electrical and pneumatic schematics, operation & maintenance manuals, and spare parts lists are delivered with every machine. Surface cleaning targets are defined with reference to EN ISO 8501 standards. If your acceptance conditions are customer-specific, an on-site verification procedure is applied in addition to the factory acceptance test (FAT).
