Roller Conveyor Machines

Type RRB
 Rösler Roller Conveyor Machines
Type RRB

Rösler roller conveyor shot blast systems are used for de-scaling, de-rusting, paint removal, paint
preparation and general cleaning of metal sheets, pipes/tubes, I-beams and weldments. Optimum
blast results are achieved on thin gauge aluminum profiles as well as on heavy steel profiles and steel
slabs. Standard roller conveyor machines can process parts from 600 up to 5,000 mm width with
roller conveyor speeds from 0.5 to 4.0 m/min. High
performance systems allow parts speeds of up to 7.5
m/min. The quantity of blast wheels and their position
ensures optimum blast results. The thrown blast media
is collected with screw conveyors and transported to
the media hopper through an elevator, screen drum or
tilting screen and air wash separator.

The machine width, number of blast wheels and their

location is determined by parts size and production
speed. Standard systems are used for processing
metal sheets and beams. Standard systems are
frequently modified to allow processing of welding
constructions of different sizes and geometries.

Quality – made in Germany...

For Rösler the word quality has deeper meaning than just fault - free, reliable and dura-
ble products. Quality is an essential part of our work philosophy and is expressed in the
personal sense of duty and quality found in each of our
employees. Certification according to DIN ISO 9001 is
living proof of our commitment to quality.

 Hurricane®-blast wheels
An essential feature of the Rösler shot blast systems are the high performance Hurricane® blast
wheels: Their quantity, position and performance along with the geometry and dimensions of
the blast cabinet ensure optimum blast results.

 Dust collectors
Separate or integrated systems -- dry or wet systems -- with or without explosion protection!
Rösler offers a wide range of dust collector models which incorporate the latest dust collecting
and separation technologies. Rösler offers dust collector solutions for any shot blast
application.

 Modular equipment designs

Rösler roller conveyor shot blast systems can easily be expanded to fully automatic
preservation (paint) lines. Painting of the parts is frequently required to put a corrosion
protection coating on the blasted parts. There are special shop primers which provide a
corrosion protection coating for up to 6 months.
Roller conveyor shot blast/preservation lines can easily be integrated into existing
manufacturing processes. Corrosion protection is particularly important for ship yards,
because long manufacturing cycles require extended temporary corrosion protection.
However, steel dealers, steel mills and steel fabricators are more and more utilizing such
preservation technologies.

Integrated blasting/painting is possible

by expanding the shot blaster with a
paint line

 Rösler Hurricane ® Blast Wheels

Blasting media is fed through a central feed tube into the high speed rotating blast wheel. The centrifugal force,
of the rotating wheel, throws the media at the components to be blasted at speeds of up to 120 m/s. The
design of the blades, insertion point, and the speed of the blast wheel determine the processing results in
conjunction with the blasting media. In order to achieve an economic utilization of the blasting media, the
amount of blasting media and the transfer to the blast wheel blades can be easily adjusted. The blast media
flow is either fixed or can be adjusted automatically through the PLC/control panel. A clam shell valve controls
the media flow from the media hopper to the blast wheels. The blast
pattern – e.g. position of the hot spot – can easily be adjusted from
outside of the blast wheel. The blast wheel
speed can be adjusted with a frequency
inverter thus allowing gentle or very
aggressive blasting

Rösler dust collectors

Each dry blast application produces dust!

Rösler dust collectors incorporate the latest dust extraction and collecting
technologies. Rösler offers a dust collector for every conceivable blast application.
All Rösler dust collectors are in full compliance with governmental safety regulations.
As required, they can be upgraded to handling combustible dusts (explosion-proof
systems).

Two different systems – wet or dry collectors – can be offered

Frequently dry collectors are equipped with a fine filter “Police filter“.
Residual dust load < 1 mg/m3.

In case of combustible or explosive dust the use of explosion protected

dust collectors is required by law!

Dry collector (standard), optionally

available in explosion protected version

12
RRB 27/6
Roller conveyor blast machine with double tilted
blast wheels (3 upper and 3 lower wheels) for

Blast cleaning of welding constructions

Special roller conveyor machines for blast cleaning of
complex welding constructions where all surfaces are cleaned.
For example head- and base-plates, welded ribs and
re-enforcements must be de-scaled and de-rusted. And the
welding seams must be cleaned.

All-around blast cleaning of outer and inner surfaces takes

place through 2 “blast zones”. The first “blast zone” consists of
equally spaced blast wheels mounted onto the roof and
bottom of the blast cabin – with larger machines there are also
blast wheels mounted to the cabin walls. The second “blast
zone” of blast wheels is placed at a negative angle relative to
the direction of the parts transport. The blast pattern created by
these two “blast zones” allows all-around blast cleaning of a
vertically placed base-plate.

Preservation lines
Rösler roller conveyor blast machines can be upgraded to complete preservation lines (Pre-heater, blast machine, paint
booth, dryer). These lines are complemented by customer-specific parts transport systems.
