Guyson Exhibit Finishing Technologies at Midest

Guyson SA (Hall 6, Aisle N, Stand 81) will be attending Midest, to be held at the Paris Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre on 17 - 20th November 2015. Guyson will be showcasing technologies from both its blast finishing and its ultrasonic cleaning equipment ranges of industrial finishing equipment and the stand will be staffed by Guyson SA field sales engineers, to provide full technical assistance to visitors.

Equipment shown will include the highly versatile, industrial quality Euroblast® 6SF manual blast cabinet which features front, top and side opening doors to the blast chamber, giving superb access for ease of parts loading. Guyson suction fed blast cabinets are often chosen for applications such as paint and rust removal, deburring, surface preparation prior to bonding, anodising or plating, and for imparting a wide range of value-adding cosmetic finishes to a variety of glass, metal or plastic products and also to products created using rapid prototyping or additive manufacturing techniques.

Also on the stand will be the Guyson Mediblast 1400, a fully 316L stainless steel constructed blast cabinet. This version showcases the type of high-end specialist manual cabinet that Guyson offers for blasting medical and dental implants (additive manufactured or conventionally manufactured) – where no ferrous contamination can be tolerated.

The Mediblast 1400 is developed from one of Guyson’s highly popular Formula blast cabinets, a range that offers three cabinet sizes including a bench-top version and is the ideal choice for light industrial or workshop applications. A wide ranging usage includes component surface finishing and general maintenance cleaning, the deburring of precision components; aircraft engine MRO, as well as surface finishing of 3D printed items and the etching of decorative art glass.

In addition to these suction fed machines, Guyson also offers pressure fed blast cabinets for heavier duty industrial cleaning applications such as mould cleaning, heat scale and casting investment removal or for any blast application where faster processing is required. A full range of automated blast systems, including robotically controlled blasting, is also available from this well respected manufacturer.

Also on display will be a KS525 ultrasonic cleaning tank – just one of Guyson’s extensive ultrasonic cleaning tank range with its six standard tank sizes. These aqueous wash tanks’ capacities range from 21 to 275 litres and all are robustly constructed using AISI 316L polished stainless steel for durability, while Kerry ultrasonic generators ensure powerful parts cleaning and long equipment life.

KS ultrasonic tanks operate as standard at 38 kHz (±10%); however, the optional Guysonic generator with its Primewave® controls allows the operator to select switchable dual frequency (36/66 kHz ±10%) and variable power control.

Typical uses of these ultrasonic cleaning (and optional UCR rinse) tanks include production cleaning for the removal of oils, swarf, polishing compounds, brazing flux, solder flux, carbonised deposits and moulding residues; the refurbishment of computer, photocopier and engine components; and the maintenance of mould tools, extrusion dies, printing components, saw blades and cutting tools, surgical instruments, electronics assembly system parts and small machined components.

Complementing the larger ultrasonic tank will be one of Guyson’s smaller MKC ultrasonic baths, all of which can be programmed to maximise the quality and repeatability of results, allowing the user to pre-set both cleaning times and temperatures, thus ensuring consistent levels of cleanliness from batch to batch and providing an affordable way to deliver quality precision cleaning for a diverse customer base such as optical and electronics manufacturers, medical, dental and technical workshops and aerospace and metal-finishing subcontractors.

The MKC units can thoroughly remove swarf, oil, grime, flux and other contaminants from a wide range of new and refurbished components, including those with highly intricate shapes. And with ultrasonic cleaning being inherently gentle, this makes it particularly suitable for less robust products such as printed circuit boards or precision parts. MKC baths are available in capacities of 6, 14 and 22 litres to suit different workloads.
