The Y-conveyor shot blasting machine cleans and prepares medium to large parts that cannot be tumbled, using a two-arm indexing system shaped like a Y. While one arm is inside the chamber blasting, the other sits outside being loaded or unloaded. When the cycle ends, the arms swap in seconds, so the machine keeps working with almost no pause.
As an airless y conveyor shot blasting machine, it exposes suspended parts to high-velocity media from several blast wheel units while the hooks rotate for full coverage. This two-station indexing is what gives the Y-type its speed: it roughly doubles the output of a single-hook machine by overlapping loading with blasting, which suits steady, mid-to-high volume production.
Available Configurations
Smart Process Overview
Parts are hung on one of two arms set on a Y-shaped track. One arm indexes into the sealed chamber for blasting while the other stays at the loading station outside. Inside, the hook rotates so steel shot or steel grit from the blast wheel units reaches every face.
When blasting finishes, the arms index around, bringing the cleaned load out and the next load in within seconds. Because loading and unloading happen while the other arm is blasting, the wheels stay working almost continuously.
Spent abrasive drops to the hopper and passes through the screw conveyor, bucket elevator, and air wash separator for reuse. The dust collector removes dust and fines, and cleaned parts move on to the next stage.

Custom Engineered Mechanism
The Y-Type indexing system uses two working stations so loading and blasting run at the same time. Its indexed arm movement swaps components between the outside station and the blast chamber quickly, cutting the waiting time a single-hook machine loses to loading.
This configuration suits steady batch production where faster cycles and organized handling matter. It offers reliable automation and a consistent finish, sitting between the simple batch door machine and the fully continuous closed-loop line.
The Y conveyor machine is the right pick when a single-door batch machine is too slow but a full continuous line is more than the volume needs. Its two-arm swap keeps the wheels working and roughly doubles batch output without a large conveyor system.
It handles heavy and delicate fabricated parts safely and gives a uniform finish. The modular build allows future expansion, which is why plants choose Jinil as their airless Y conveyor shot blasting machine manufacturer for both new lines and upgrades.
The Y conveyor machine suits plants stepping up their output, where parts run in steady mid-to-high volume. Fabrication units, automotive suppliers, foundries, and heavy engineering shops use its two-station cycle to clean parts faster without a full continuous line. The industries below are where indexed hanger blasting fits best.

Advanced Engineering Highlights
Built as an automatic shot blasting machine, it can be customized based on specific production requirements.
Additional System Enhancements
Sets blast wheel speed precisely to control media flow and match the part for the right finish.
Screens the recovered abrasive so worn media and debris are removed and only good shot returns.
Guards the loading opening with an infrared beam that stops the machine if the beam is broken.
Extra wear-resistant liners suited to steel grit and heavier abrasive for a longer chamber life.
Cast liners on the chamber and carousel walls for demanding, high-hour blasting duty.
Bump bar and edge safety switches that shut the machine down if a part jams at the loading area.
Removes contaminants from the media to hold quality and extend abrasive life.
Monitors abrasive level so blasting stays steady and uninterrupted.
Cartridge filtering with automatic pulse jet cleaning for clean air and low emissions.
Powered hoist for loading heavier hangers safely onto the spinner hook.
Measures load weight for balanced, safe handling of components.
It is a machine with two hanger arms on a Y-shaped track. One arm blasts inside while the other loads outside, then they swap, so the machine cleans parts with very little pause.
A batch door machine waits during loading. The Y-type overlaps loading with blasting across two stations, which roughly doubles output without a full continuous line.
Fabricated structures, heavy machinery parts, automotive components, castings, forgings, and irregularly shaped parts that need fast, damage-free cleaning.
It gives controlled two-station movement, quick changeover between load and blast, less downtime, and organized handling for steady production.
Mainly steel shot and steel grit, chosen to match the part and finish. The media is recovered and reused automatically.
