Learn more about Glassblowing

Blowing is an effective mechanical pre-treatment that is used when there are special requirements for the aluminum's structure or hardness.

Further information

Blasting leaves a nice, uniform and matte surface, while the treatment can to a certain extent remedy machining surfaces, grinding marks, tensile and heat streaks, which are visible on the raw material. This is due to changes in the material structure, which achieves the more uniform surface and with a matte appearance before further processing.

HAI offers several different blowing media with different roughness in the structure to give the uniform surface a broken structure.

We have different varieties of blowing agents, where, depending on the desired result, you can choose between glass beads, precious corundum, stainless steel balls, stainless steel grit and mixed blowing agents.

We have a blowing agent to suit your needs regardless of the application or the physical characteristics of the component. 

Blasting is a pre-treatment process that can be equated with other mechanical pre-treatments such as grinding, brushing and polishing.  

The treatment takes place in a closed cabin, where our operators blow fine grains of glass against the aluminum blanks. This achieves a uniform surface and a nice finish on the entire item.  

HAI can blow glass profiles up to 8 meters in a continuous plant and offers economically advantageous glass blowing in fully automatic plants. 

Glass beads are a reusable blowing agent that is offered in different my (μ) depending on the desired finish. Glass beads are a gentler blasting agent than corundum and steel grit. HAI uses premium quality glass beads made specifically for glassblowing. Glass beads are an iron-free product that creates a silky matte surface finish.

Glass beads

Corundum is a blasting agent without iron that has a strong abrasive effect. Ordinary corundum contains iron, which can cause rust stains. Corundum combines properties such as angularity, brittleness and hardness. HAI can blow glass with all grain sizes depending on the desired thickness

Precious corundum

Steel grit is steel balls that have been ground into grit, so that sharp edges are created that give a good roughness. HAI uses steel grit of very high quality, which provides a hardness that is optimal for achieving uniformity. With steel grit, a very sharp roughness profile can be achieved.

Stainless steel grit

At HAI we find the blowing agent that suits your needs. Our different variants of blowing agents enable us to combine the different properties so that we achieve exactly the finish that you want. Take us for advice from the start, and contact us to hear more about your options.
