Built to Meet Critical Shot Peening Specifications
Bronco shot peening equipment is purpose-built to deliver the controlled coverage, tight media classification, and repeatable process conditions required to meet critical specifications and increase product longevity.
SHOT PEENING-READY EQUIPMENT
Engineered for the Demands of the Shot Peening Industry
Uniform Coverage on Complex
Parts
Shot peening requires uniform coverage across the part surface. On complex parts, maintaining the correct angle of impingement is critical. Incorrect angles reduce energy transfer, affect compressive stress, and result in incomplete coverage.
Bronco auto-set valves ensure accurate coverage across part surfaces. Bronco blast wheels deliver precise speed control to meet required RPM and shot peening specifications. Together, these technologies achieve consistent peening results, even on complex parts.
Media Breakdown and Part
Performance
Shot peening media breaks down over time, especially when hard shot is used on hard substrates. When fractured media is not removed, it can create stress risers that compromise part integrity and reduce the effectiveness of the peening process.
Bronco utilizes leading vibratory screening systems to remove fractured media and maintain proper shot sphericity. This screening process helps protect part integrity and maintain shot peening effectiveness.
Process Control, Verification, and Repeatability
Shot peening requires repeatable results from part to part and cycle to cycle. Certification, verification, destructive testing, and detailed inspection are often required to confirm coverage and specification compliance.
Bronco’s HMI/PLC interface allows operators to precisely set and control process parameters, including equipment settings and cycle times. With this level of control, Bronco maintains consistent coverage and peening intensity from part to part and cycle to cycle.
BUILD TO BLAST
Why Customers Choose Bronco
Bronco brings deep application expertise to shot peening equipment built around critical specifications, part geometry, coverage, and intensity requirements.
Bronco integrates target lock technology, real-time monitoring, and auto set valve control to maintain coverage, intensity, and process repeatability.
Bronco uses tight media classification, air wash separation, and vibratory screening to remove fractured media and preserve the shot condition required for repeatable peening results.
THE RIGHT MACHINE FOR THE JOB
Bronco’s Shot Peening Toolkit
Bronco shot peening equipment is engineered to maintain controlled coverage, tight shot classification, and repeatable process conditions in specification-driven applications. Systems are configured around part geometry, batch requirements, and the coverage and intensity required for parts such as gears, springs, crankshafts, and connecting rods.
Tumble Blast Machine
The Tumble Blast is used for shot peening applications involving parts that can tolerate part-on-part contact during processing.
Spinner Hanger Blast Machine
The Spinner Hanger is used for shot peening applications involving parts that require specific surface finishes and cannot have part-on-part contact.
“Shot peening is a precise, specification-driven process. The equipment has to be dialed in to maintain coverage, repeatability, and the control required to avoid failures in the field.”
