Cleaning each cylinder by hand is slow and the finish changes from one worker to the next. An <strong>LPG cylinder shot blasting machine<\/strong> does the job automatically. The cylinder travels through an enclosed blasting chamber, turns on rollers as it moves, and blast wheels throw steel abrasive at it from the side, so the complete outer surface is cleaned in a single pass. Airo Shot Blast manufactures LPG cylinder shot blasting machines in Jodhpur and supplies them to cylinder manufacturers and refurbishing plants across India. This guide explains what the machine is, how it works, the models available, where it is used, which abrasive to choose, what decides the price and which safety points matter, so you can brief us properly and compare quotes with confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is an LPG Cylinder Shot Blasting Machine?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An <strong>LPG cylinder shot blasting machine<\/strong> cleans the exterior of steel LPG and CNG cylinders by blasting abrasive thrown from turbines inside a confined chamber. The cylinders enter the blasting room on the base of the machine, and the abrasive removes rust, scale, old paint and other surface contamination. It can also etch the surface, which gives paint a better grip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The machine is built as a complete system with these main parts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Blasting chamber<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lower cabin with the helical mover<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cylinder rotation and moving system<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Elevator (bucket elevator)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sift and separator<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Dry filter unit (dust collector)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How an LPG Cylinder Shot Blasting Machine Works<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Loading:<\/strong> cylinders are fed into the machine on the conveying base. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.airoshotblast.in\/shot-blasting-machine\/roller-conveyor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">roller conveyor<\/a> carries them in one after another, the same way a roller conveyor shot blasting machine feeds plates and sections.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rotation and movement:<\/strong> as the cylinders move, they rotate on the rollers and the helical mover keeps them travelling through the chamber. This turning makes sure the complete surface is blasted, not just the side facing the blast wheels.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Blasting:<\/strong> the <strong>blast wheels (turbines)<\/strong> throw <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.airoshotblast.net\/main-product\/133-Steel-Grit\">steel grit<\/a><\/strong> or steel shot at high speed (65 to 75 metres per second) onto the cylinder surface, removing rust, scale and old coating. This is the same principle as an airless shot blasting machine.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Abrasive recovery:<\/strong> used abrasive falls to the bottom, is lifted by the bucket elevator, and goes through the sift and separator. Usable abrasive media returns to the wheels through the abrasive recovery system, while dust and waste are removed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Dust control:<\/strong> the dry filter unit, a fabric bag dust collector, pulls dust out of the chamber, so the working area stays clean.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Unloading:<\/strong> the cleaned cylinders leave the machine, ready for painting or the next process, such as powder coating or spray painting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the same wheel principle used in an <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shotblaster.in\/product\/airless-shot-blasting-machine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">airless shot blasting machine<\/a><\/strong>, so no compressed air is needed and the running cost per cylinder stays low.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">LPG Cylinder Shot Blasting Machine Models and Specifications<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Technical specification<\/th><th>Model S-800DB<\/th><th>Model S-400DB<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Size of blast wheel<\/td><td>19\u00bd&#8221; x 2\u00bd&#8221;<\/td><td>19\u00bd&#8221; x 2\u00bd&#8221;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Number of blast wheels<\/td><td>2<\/td><td>1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Power of blast wheel<\/td><td>15 HP x 2<\/td><td>15 HP x 1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Shot flow rate per minute per wheel<\/td><td>150 kg<\/td><td>150 kg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Shot velocity (m\/s)<\/td><td>65-75<\/td><td>65-75<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Shot consumption rate<\/td><td>Approx. 0.13 kg\/hp\/hr<\/td><td>Approx. 0.13 kg\/hp\/hr<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Standard accessories<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Blast cabinet with inspection door, bucket elevator, abrasive cleaning system and abrasive storage silo<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Automatic abrasive control valve with sound reducer<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>One or two blast wheel assemblies, complete with bearing housing, motor and mounting plate<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cabinet liner 12 mm manganese steel liner in the direct blast zone, with the remaining area lined with 6 mm thick rubber liner<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shotblastingmachines.in\/fabric-bag-dust-collector\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fabric bag dust collector<\/a> with a dynamically balanced blower and ducting, placed about 1 metre away from the blast cabinet.

Keep these in working order.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Dust collection:<\/strong> the fabric bag dust collector, with its damper valve and mechanical shaker, keeps dust out of the workshop. Clean or replace the bags on schedule.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Liners:<\/strong> inspect the manganese steel liner and the rubber liner regularly. Worn liner lets abrasive damage the chamber.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cylinder handling:<\/strong> only empty, depressurized cylinders should be loaded, and the rollers and mover should be checked for jams before every shift.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Noise:<\/strong> the automatic abrasive control valve also works as a sound reducer. Use ear protection around the machine.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Maintenance:<\/strong> only trained staff should open the chamber or wheel housing, with the power isolated and proper PPE for ears, eyes and breathing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">LPG Cylinder Shot Blasting Machine Manufacturer in India<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Airo Shot Blast is a leading manufacturer, supplier and exporter of LPG cylinder shot blasting machines and sand blasting machine components from Jodhpur, Rajasthan.
