2. Sandblasting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandblasting

   Sandblasting, sometimes known as abrasive blasting, is the operation of forcibly propelling a stream of abrasive material against a surface under high pressure to smooth a rough surface, roughen a smooth surface, shape a surface or remove surface contaminants.

3. Exploding-bridgewire detonator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploding-bridgewire_detonator

   The exploding-bridgewire detonator (EBW, also known as exploding wire detonator) is a type of detonator used to initiate the detonation reaction in explosive materials, similar to a blasting cap because it is fired using an electric current. EBWs use a different physical mechanism than blasting caps, using more electricity delivered much more ...

4. Bristle blasting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristle_Blasting

   Bristle blasting is a mechanical abrasion cleaning process that is performed on metallic surfaces by a brush-like rotary power tool. The tool consists of sharpened, high-carbon steel wire bristle tips that are designed with a forward-angle bend, i.e., the shank of the wire is bent in the direction of tool rotation.

5. Detonator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detonator

   Match type blasting caps use an electric match (insulating sheet with electrodes on both sides, a thin bridgewire soldered across the sides, all dipped in ignition and output mixes) to initiate the primary explosive, rather than direct contact between the bridgewire and the primary explosive. The match can be manufactured separately from the ...

6. Abrasive jet machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abrasive_jet_machining

   Abrasive jet machining (AJM), also known as abrasive micro-blasting, pencil blasting and micro-abrasive blasting, [1] is an abrasive blasting machining process that uses abrasives propelled by a high velocity gas to erode material from the workpiece. Common uses include cutting heat-sensitive, brittle, thin, or hard materials.

7. Blasting machine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blasting_machine

   Two blasting machines. At rear is one where the trigger works by depressing or raising the handle; at fore, one where the handle is twisted. A blasting machine or shot exploder (commonly called a plunger) is a portable source of electric current to reliably fire a blasting cap to trigger a main explosive charge.
