Abstract:  
When an aerospace OEM in Singapore wanted robotic shot peening machines with turnkey operation, they came to their trusted resource: Progressive Surface. The OEM required three identical machines for the shot peening of aircraft fan blades. The part programs needed to run in any of the three machines and the dimensional stability of the parts was crucial. The fan blade airfoils could not twist out of shape after peening. “We believe the customer entrusted us with the project because they have a long history with our robotic machines and we can support them through our multiple locations in Singapore,” said Bill Barker, Sales Engineer with Progressive Surface.
