Title: Important Things that You Should Know About Shot Peening
1Important Things that You Should Know About Shot
Peening
2Shot peening is undertaken using an air blast
system or centrifugal blast wheels. The air blast
system uses high-pressure air for firing the
shots through a nozzle at the workplace. A
centrifugal blast wheel uses a high-speed paddle
wheel that peening using centrifugal force.

Stainless Steel Components
4Why is Shot Peening Used?
- The main benefit of shot peening is to expand the
service life of an element by creating an induced
compressive stress layer for increasing
resistance to fatigue though also helping to
resist the development and propagation of cracks.
The creation of compression stresses helps
prevent the propagation of cracks through the
material.

6Difference between Shot Peening and Shot Blasting
- Shot blasting is an industrial process that is
used for modifying a components surface. The
process of sand blasting works on the principle
of abrasion. A stream of abrasive particles is
propelled under high pressure onto the plane of
an element for smoothing a rough surface,
roughening a smooth surface, shaping a surface,
or removing surface contaminants
7Shot blasting is also used for preparing a
surface for subsequent operation, such as the
painting of welds. Shot peeing is actually
different from shot blasting in that it is used
for removing surface material properties through
the addition of compressive stresses.

9Advantage of Shot Peening
- The main advantage of shot peening include
improved strength and fatigue resistance, also
when handing out complex geometric parts. This
process is well-known and also relatively
inexpensive. It has also substantial research and
quality controls for ensuring its effectiveness.
