In this article we want to talk about the sandblasting roughness tester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But first let\u2019s see how the effect sandblasting&nbsp;<strong>creates on the surface is similar to the one created by using sandpaper<\/strong>, but the result is more even and it is easier to apply on areas with corners and crevices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How is sandblasting performed?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the name suggests, sandblasting&nbsp;<strong>is performed with a machine that blows sand at high pressure over the surface being treated.<\/strong>&nbsp;The machine forces the particles of sand at high speed all over the surface, usually&nbsp;<strong>creating a smoother and cleaner surface<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sandblasting machines are generally connected to an air compressor which allows the high-pressure air to move the sand through a handheld nozzle that the operator controls by pointing it to the area of the surface requiring the treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, depending on different parameters such as the type of material being treated, the type of sand used and the pressure applied, etc. the resulting surface roughness may vary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.samatools.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/sabbiatura.jpg\" alt=\"surface sandblasting\" class=\"wp-image-14982\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.samatools.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/sabbiatura.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.samatools.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/sabbiatura-600x300.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.samatools.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/sabbiatura-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.samatools.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/sabbiatura-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.samatools.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/sabbiatura-705x353.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sandblasting at C&amp;L Verniciatura<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.celverniciatura.it\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">C&amp;L Verniciatura<\/a> is a company which has been providing industrial painting services<\/strong> for more than 20 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During this time, they have gone through a series of improvements, evolving into a bigger and more sophisticated company, currently located&nbsp;<strong>in Arezzo, Italy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At their new headquarters, they have been able to expand their systems and the number of services they provide, offering&nbsp;<strong>painting jobs on different surfaces, including: iron, wood, glass, plastic, aluminum and tin, for both indoor and outdoor applications.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among the many improvements, they have added to their process, we can find&nbsp;<strong>sandblasting<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/www.samatools.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/126225913_4123415604351676_4848122919774565841_o-2.jpg\" alt=\"-\" class=\"wp-image-29850 size-full\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.samatools.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/126225913_4123415604351676_4848122919774565841_o-2.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.samatools.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/126225913_4123415604351676_4848122919774565841_o-2-600x750.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.samatools.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/126225913_4123415604351676_4848122919774565841_o-2-240x300.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This preparation before the painting process provides a series of benefits, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>An easy way to clean the surface. It is possible to remove contaminants even from the hardest materials.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>By eliminating contaminants from the surface, paint and coating adherence  greatly improves.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It creates a protective layer that prevents rust from appearing on metal parts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It\u2019s an eco-friendly process.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite all these benefits from sandblasting,  an important aspect that C&amp;L Verniciatura needs to follow is  quality control in their process to make sure they obtain high-quality results for their customers.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How does surface roughness affect C&amp;L Verniciatura painting results?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a

roughness<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/a> refers to the <strong>irregularities called peaks and valleys<\/strong> that appear on the surface of a part <strong>as a result of mechanical processes, such as sandblasting.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The only way for&nbsp;<strong>C&amp;L Verniciatura<\/strong>&nbsp;to&nbsp;<strong>provide high-quality results<\/strong>&nbsp;to their customers is by making sure that the coating of paint evenly covers all the peaks on the surface in order&nbsp;<strong>to<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>avoid rust spots<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, they need to make sure that the peaks are not too low, as this would result in reduced or even insufficient adhesion of the coating, leading to premature coating failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Delivering pieces that may develop rust spots or coating failure in a short period of time is something C&amp;L Verniciatura will never accept, especially with the high-quality standards they have implemented along the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But, <strong>how can they measure and control something invisible to the eye like surface roughness?<\/strong> Well, using a <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.samatools.it\/en\/?p=14519\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer
