Custom Swing Door Grit Blasting Machines
Grit blasting is one of the most effective methods used to prepare surfaces for finishing. Grit blasting is used to roughen surfaces for painting, bonding, thermal spraying and coating and remove burrs and flash from molded products. It is also used to provide matte surface finishing and etching.
Engineered Abrasives® manufactures custom grit blasting machines that are designed to use aluminum oxide or silicon carbide abrasives. The suction units for the machines are engineered to use our polyurethane gun bodies to ensure longer product life cycles for the machinery. All our machinery is designed to meet the heavy-duty production schedules for grit blasting processes and will perform well in 2-shift operations.
Our engineering staff has the experience and expertise to assist you with the design of a custom grit blasting machine that will meet your specific application requirements. We’ll ensure that the media selected will be the most effective abrasive for your process. Our custom product line includes continuous blast tables and specialty cabinets, single cell machines and conveyor units.
How Our Swing Door Grit Blasting Machines Work
- The part fixture is mounted on the inside of the door.
- While one door is closed, the part is processed in the blast chamber. The other door is then opened and the part can be loaded onto the fixture.
- When the blast cycle is finished, the door is opened with the processed part and the other door is ready to be closed again for the process to restart.
Engineered Abrasives® product line of grit blast equipment is designed and manufactured to meet the most stringent performance requirements. Our knowledgeable, skilled staff will make sure that your custom equipment will provide the performance you require.

Grit Blasting Machine FAQs
Grit blasting roughens surfaces for painting, bonding, thermal spraying and coating, and removes burrs and flash from molded products. It is also used for matte surface finishing and etching.
The part fixture is mounted on the inside of the door. While one door is closed and its part is blasted, the operator loads the next part on the other door, so loading and blasting happen at the same time.
Our grit blasting machines are designed to use aluminum oxide or silicon carbide abrasives. Our engineering staff will help you select the most effective abrasive for your process.
Yes. They are designed for heavy-duty production schedules and perform well in 2-shift operations. Polyurethane gun bodies in the suction units extend the life of the machinery.
Grit blasting uses angular abrasive to clean, roughen or etch a surface before finishing. Shot peening uses round shot to put the surface under compressive stress and increase fatigue life. Engineered Abrasives® builds machines for both.

Additional Shot Peening Equipment We Offer
Automated Shot Peening Machines
Shot peening is used to finish metal parts that require increased wear and fatigue properties. In the process, shot bombards the metal part, creating small dimples in the surface.
Transmission Gears for EV & Combustion Engines
Gear shot peening machines for EV, hybrid and combustion engine transmission gears.
Ring & Pinion Gear Shot Peening Machines
Ring and pinion gears are complex parts that must be finished with exact and uniform peening throughout the entire gear.
Single Cell Machines
Single cell peening machines are used to provide peening for light to medium volume operations. Used for parts ranging from small gears to large gears, single cell blasting machines offer precision peening using a wide range of media.
