Abstract:  
A quick guide to the type of blast cleaning machines available and what you need to know to select the right one for your operation. Reprinted with permission from the July, 1995 issue of Foundry Management and Technology magazine. Dean M. Peters, Editor. The cleaning and finishing of casting has always been a tough, labor intensive operation. It is noisy, dusty, backbreaking work. But it is necessary because, for most aplications, castings must be cleaning before they can be considered finished and functional. In some cases, they need to be cleaned before their quality can be verified.
