Blast Equipment built for the Realities of Forging Operations

Forging is an aggressive environment, driving the need for durable, purpose-built blasting machine design that can withstand rigorous operating conditions.

Engineered for the Demands
of the Forge Industry

Forging operations run in aggressive environments, driving the need for durable, purpose-built machine design that can withstand rigorous operating conditions.

Bronco-Oxide Scale-Icon

Forged parts carry thick, hard oxide scale that must be removed before machining, grinding, or coatings. If this scale is not addressed, it can damage downstream equipment and reduce final part quality.

Bronco-Unique-Shape-Icon

Forging operations often produce parts with significant weight, complex geometry, and non-standard designs. These characteristics affect how parts can be handled, blasted, and processed without damage or inefficiency.

Bronco-Replacements-Icon

Forged parts are typically run through blast cleaning in batch-style loads or as single pieces moving through a continuous flow. The way parts are grouped, staged, and handled directly affects how blast equipment must be designed and applied.

Why Customers Choose Bronco

Designed Around the Application

Bronco designs and configures blast equipment based on part size, geometry, and production flow, treating forging applications as engineering problems to be solved.

Built for Aggressive Environments

Bronco equipment is constructed with oversized components built for heavy-scale applications that rapidly wear out standard equipment, enabling it to withstand the aggressive forging operations.

Maintainability by Design

Bronco reduces system complexity and limits unnecessary moving parts, making equipment easier to maintain and helping reduce downtime over the life of the machine.

Bronco’s Forge-Ready Blasting Toolkit

All Bronco blast equipment is engineered to remove forging scale and decrease unplanned downtime. Using durable cast liners and abrasive separation suited for forging environments, you increase your uptime and throughput. Our systems are configured around part size, geometry, and production flow to support how forged parts move through the process.

Multi Tumble Drum-

The Multi-Tumble Drum supports forging operations that run multiple parts together, removing heavy, tightly bonded oxide scale from small to medium-sized components.

Capacity Options: Available in four drum sizes to accommodate different load requirements

Drum Construction: Manganese steel drum designed for durability in aggressive forging environments

Media Separation: Rotary screen and air wash separation systems support clean abrasive reuse and reduced maintenance downtime


Best Used For:

  • Smaller Forgings
  • High-Volume Batch Production
  • Dense Load Processing
Spinner-Hanger

The Spinner Hanger is used in forging applications where part size, weight, or geometry make tumbling less suitable and controlled blasting is required.

Part Rotation: Rotating hanger exposes forged parts to blast media from multiple angles

Part Handling: Secure fixturing supports heavier parts and complex geometries

Application Fit: Available in multiple configurations to match handling and facility requirements


Best Used For:

  • Large Forgings
  • Delicate Geometries
  • Parts not suited for tumbling or part-on-part contact
  • More controlled blast exposure

“Forging applications demand equipment that can withstand heavy scale, heavy parts, and continuous production. We engineer each system around how the customer actually runs their operation.”

– CHRISTOPHER SCHMID, Equipment Application Specialist
