—— You are one step ahead with STR Strong Makine…
STR Strong Makine offers Shot Blasting machine solutions designed to increase production efficiency and surface quality in critical industries. Our main product range—the Hanger Type Shot Blasting Machine, Tumble Shot Blasting Machine, and Sheet & Profile Shot Blasting Machine—perfectly adapts to different part types and line configurations, meeting the expectations of strategic sectors such as automotive, agriculture, defense, machinery manufacturing, transportation, foundry, and heat treatment machinery producers.
In the automotive and transportation sectors, surface preparation before painting, coating, phosphating, and bonding is critical. Our sandblasting machines, operating with high repeatability and low abrasive consumption, standardize rust and scale removal, thereby enhancing adhesion strength. In the agriculture and machinery industries, our maintenance-friendly and energy-efficient solutions, suitable for variable batch sizes, ensure process continuity. In the foundry and heat treatment fields, they reliably remove burrs, mold sand, and oxide layers, improving part dimensional stability and final quality.
Our project approach is based on positioning the right equipment according to your process goals: Hanger systems process complex and heavy parts on all surfaces; Rubber Belt Tumblast Shot Blasting Machines homogeneously clean small to medium-sized parts without damage; and Sheet & Profile Shot Blasting Machines process sheets, box profiles, and beams at high speed in continuous lines. We deliver turnkey solutions that increase OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) and reduce the total cost of ownership through options in dust collection, media circulation, and automation.
In short, whatever your sector, we combine the right Shot Blasting machine configuration for your production lines with reliable performance and sustainable costs.
Automotive
In automotive body, chassis, and powertrain components, controlling surface roughness before coating is decisive for corrosion resistance and adhesion success. The Hanger Shot Blasting Machine processes large parts hung on hooks from all angles, reducing the risk of blind spots. For small parts like rims, gears, and brackets, the Tumble Shot Blasting Machine uses abrasives efficiently. For sheet and profile processing in continuous lines, the Sheet and Profile Shot Blasting Machine provides pre-painting standardization through speed/flow control, turbine flow rate, and grit size optimization. This reduces rework rates, improving total cycle time and cost per unit.
Agriculture
In agricultural machinery (chassis, blades, bodies, fasteners), harsh field conditions accelerate corrosion and wear. Surface preparation with a Shot Blasting machine extends coating life and lengthens maintenance intervals. To manage different part sizes on a single line, the Hanger Type Shot blasting Machine offers flexibility with modular hook types and adjustable turbine angles. Rubber belt tumblast solutions quickly remove burrs from cast and pressed parts. Dust collection and media recovery systems optimize both operational safety and abrasive consumption costs.
Defense Industry
In defense projects, repeatable surface roughness, coating integrity, and traceability are mandatory. The Hanger Shot Blasting Machine ensures a homogeneous process while maintaining the geometric tolerances of sensitive components. For armor plates, body panels, and support profiles, the Sheet and Profile Shot Blasting Machine offers consistent quality and high line speeds. Process data can be recorded via SCADA/PLC; media hardness and flow rate are configured according to the target Ra value. This speeds up quality audits and reduces non-conformance (NC) repetitions.
Machinery Industry
In general machinery manufacturing, cast bodies, welded chassis, shafts, and gears have different cleaning requirements. The choice of Shot blasting machine is based on part flow and batch size: hanger type for heavy and complex geometries, rubber belt tumblast for small-to-medium parts, and sheet & profile for long parts. The number and position of turbines are determined to maximize the blasting pattern overlap. Automatic media classification and separators ensure constant blasting quality and low wear costs.
Transportation
In the rail systems, maritime, and commercial vehicle sectors, the rapid processing of large-surface-area sheets and profiles is critical. The Sheet and Profile Shot blasting Machine standardizes scale removal before welding and painting, in line with production speeds. For bridge girders and large profiles, the Hanger Type Shot Blasting Machine offers additional processing flexibility. Energy-efficient fans, filtration, and jet-pulse systems improve the facility’s environmental performance and minimize media leakage.
Foundry and Heat Treatment Machinery Producers
The controlled removal of sand, oxides, and burrs after casting is essential for dimensional stability and the quality of subsequent operations (machining, coating). The Tumble Shot Blasting Machine creates a homogeneous blasting field by tumbling the batch. For heavy castings, the Hanger Shot Blasting Machine combines hook load capacity with blast intensity. Sheet & profile lines are ideal for the rapid cleaning of fixtures and support plates. Correctly adjusting media recovery, separator efficiency, and turbine grit flow rate reduces abrasive costs while increasing process continuity.
