Rotating Barrel Chamber: The core component is a cylindrical barrel chamber that rotates on a horizontal axis. This tumbling motion throws the parts against each other and the abrasive media, creating a cleaning and finishing action.
Abrasive Media: The chamber is filled with an abrasive media, which can be steel shot, ceramic grit, or even organic media like walnut shells depending on the desired cleaning or finishing effect.
Compound (Optional): In some cases, a liquid compound can be added to the blasting media to enhance the cleaning process or achieve a specific surface finish.
