Automated Shot Peen Machines

The Defense Logistics Agency is seeking to acquire two automated shot peen machines for use at the NAS Jacksonville, Florida facility. The machines must meet specific requirements, including design, safety, and performance standards. The contractor will be responsible for providing the machines, installing them, and training government personnel on their use. The machines will be used for shot peening, a process that involves blasting a surface with shot to improve its fatigue resistance. The contractor must provide a machine that can perform this process accurately and efficiently, with features such as a turntable, robot, and media reclamation system. Some key features of the machines include: • A 5-axis gantry robot with a minimum stroke length of 48 inches • A turntable with a minimum capacity of 600 pounds and a speed range of 0.3-30 RPM • A media reclamation system that can separate bad media from reusable media • A pressure pot system that can deliver media at specified pressures and flow rates • A manual blow-off nozzle for excess shot removal • A compressor suitable for meeting the air pressure demands of both booths.
