Shot Blasting and Surface Preparation Training: Winoa Brazil Shares Its Expertise


At Winoa Brazil, innovation and knowledge transfer are central to every event. During the latest workshop focused on shotblasting and surface preparation, industry experts and professionals gathered to share technical insights and discover cutting-edge technologies. Through practical demonstrations and insightful exchanges, these events provide a true immersion into best industrial practices.

Revisit the highlights of this shotblasting and surface preparation training with Winoa Brazil in the video below:

 

Why is surface preparation essential for your industrial operations?

Surface preparation by shotblasting plays a crucial role in the success of industrial operations. Poor treatment can compromise coating adhesion or reduce the lifespan of a component. During workshops organized by our teams in Brazil, you will participate in practical demonstrations under real conditions, including tests to understand and compare different surface profiles, operational mixes, and abrasive selections. This learning experience provides you with practical insights to enhance your industrial processes upon your return.

 

Participants engage in the Blasting Cost Killer workshop, focused on reducing shot blasting costs.

An immersive training to master shotblasting and surface preparation

Winoa Brazil’s workshops allow participants to explore advanced shotblasting and surface preparation techniques firsthand. Guided by our industrial applications experts, Pedro Guimaraes, Pedro Barbosa, and Fernando Kneubil, each operation is supported by essential measurement tools, including the WAClean device, which ensures precise surface cleanliness control.

You will also participate in an interactive workshop, “Blasting Cost Killer,” designed to let you experiment with shotblasting parameters. You will analyze different configurations to better understand how to optimize operations and reduce overall costs. This hands-on exercise enhances process understanding while providing concrete, applicable solutions for your activities.

A highlight is the introduction of the augmented reality (AR) headset by Pierre Coste, which simplifies shotblasting machine inspections and revolutionizes maintenance methods. This innovation perfectly exemplifies Winoa’s approach to continuous optimization, supported by our WCare service, crafted to sustainably support the management and improvement of your equipment.

Why participate in this shotblasting training, and what are the benefits?

This training is primarily an immersion into shot blasting and surface preparation. The focus here is on practical experience: each session places you directly with the equipment, machines, and materials. You’ll test, adjust, and directly observe the impact of the techniques employed.

These events are also a unique opportunity to connect with other industry professionals. You will share experiences, exchange tips, and leave with fresh ideas ready to implement as soon as you return to your site. Each workshop is designed to provide tangible solutions to the challenges you face daily, while also introducing you to new perspectives and technologies shaping the future of the industry.
