Sandblasting

Primo Medical Group’s sandblasting operations, also known as abrasive blasting, is used on medical devices and aerospace components to enhance surface properties, improve adhesion for coatings, and create specific textures or finishes. In medical devices, sandblasting is commonly applied to implants (such as hip or knee prosthetics) to create a roughened surface, improving osseointegration, which helps the implant bond better with bone tissue.

In aerospace, sandblasting is used to clean, deburr, and finish components like fasteners and structural parts, removing contaminants, improving fatigue resistance, and preparing surfaces for coating or further machining. The process uses high-pressure air to propel abrasive materials like silica, aluminum oxide, or ceramic beads, offering precision and control over the final texture and appearance of the device or part.
