MPME Abrasives

Foundry

Cleaner castings, lower consumption

From grey iron to steel and aluminium castings, blasting is what turns a raw casting into a machinable, paintable part.

Why blasting matters here

Castings arrive covered in burnt-on sand, mould residue and scale. Consistent blasting decides finish quality, machining yield and how much abrasive each tonne of castings consumes.

Common problems

  • Sand contamination degrades the abrasive mix fast
  • Grade variation → uneven cleaning and higher reject rates
  • High, unpredictable consumption per tonne
  • Impeller and liner wear from a contaminated mix

How MPME helps

01 Certified steel shot & grit (S-390 to S-660 for large-medium castings) that holds spec batch to batch
02 MFRS-P recovers abrasive lost to sand and spillage
03 A 5M assessment targets consumption directly — real foundry engagements have cut it from 7.4 to 6.6 and 4.6 to 4.1 kg/tonne
04 SB360 tracks consumption and mix quality live
