DS & DV Manipulator Systems | Wheelabrator

DS and DV manipulator systems hold fragile or precision components in controlled fixtures rather than tumbling them. DS provides single-axis rotation, while DV adds horizontal and vertical positioning for multi-face access, undercuts and angled features.

DS single-axis format

The DS arrangement rotates a fixture through a fixed blast-stream exposure. It is suited to round or symmetrical parts such as turbine discs and flywheels.

Rotation provides repeatable circumferential exposure while the fixture preserves orientation.

DV multi-axis format

The DV arrangement adds horizontal and vertical movement for full three-dimensional coverage. It addresses components with multiple faces, undercuts or angled features that a single rotary axis cannot expose.

Motion programming allows controlled treatment without free tumbling.

Applications

Documented duties include cosmetic blasting of pressure-sensitive surfaces, preparation before bonding, painting or coating, gear and housing cleaning, and finishing machined parts without distortion or edge damage.

The equipment is positioned for aerospace, medical and automotive components that require process validation.

Cell integration

The compact manipulator format can fit foundry cells or precision production lines. Exposure, orientation and fixture repeatability can be matched to each part family.

Validation should confirm blast coverage, fixture shadowing, intensity or finish target, program revision and part recognition before automatic release.
