A peening device for treating a component includes a shot media propulsion source configured to propel a quantity of shot media. The device also includes a plurality of treatment enclosures each selectively coupleable to the shot media propulsion source. Each of the treatment enclosures has a shape complementary to a corresponding one of a plurality of portions of the component, such that each treatment enclosure and the corresponding portion cooperate to enclose the shot media.

A system for cutting an underwater structure, the system comprising: a cutting head, said cutting head comprising: an abrasive water jetting nozzle; a cryogenic nozzle; said abrasive water jetting nozzle and cryogenic nozzle mounted in fixed spaced relation; said cutting head arranged to position tips of the nozzles proximate to a cutting surface, and arranged to form a cutting zone defined by the nozzle tips and cutting surface; wherein a water repelling shield is located about said cutting zone and arranged to hinder water entering said cutting zone.

A mobile steel grit dryer used to dry steel grit may be configured with a number of different functions and features to assist a contractor in performing steel or other structure maintenance when using steel grit in resurfacing the structure. The steel grit dryer may be configured with a heat process vacuum bypass so that an off-board vacuum, such as a vacuum on a grit recycling system, may be utilized as opposed to having an onboard vacuum. The dryer may include multiple modes so that an operator may use different modes for different environmental conditions. An exoframe may provide for better durability when being transported to different jobsites. A variety of automation and safety features may also be provided to simplify and improve safety for operators.

An apparatus to recover incoherent material present in a process fluid to be treated (F1) comprises a separation device (13) to separate, by means of centrifugal action, the incoherent material (M) from the process fluid (F) and a pumping unit (12) configured to remove the process fluid to be treated (F1) from a collection zone (11) and send it to the separation device (13).

A separation device that separates a mixture of magnetic bodies that are granular and non-magnetic bodies that is granular into the magnetic bodies and the non-magnetic bodies. The separation device includes a magnetic force separating mechanism, a wind force generation portion, a first wind force separating portion, and a second wind force separating portion. The magnetic force separating mechanism separates the mixture into first separated objects and second separated objects by attracting the magnetic bodies from the mixture of magnetic force. The first separated objects mainly contain the magnetic and non-magnetic bodies. The second separated objects mainly contain the non-magnetic bodies and magnetic bodies. The wind force generation portion generates wind force. The first wind force separates the first separated objects into the magnetic and non-magnetic bodies of wind force. The second wind force separates the second separated objects into the non-magnetic bodies and magnetic bodies of wind force.

A shot peening apparatus capable of precisely controlling the amount of shots supplied projects, by a shot impeller, shots onto a workpiece, and has a bucket elevator which conveys the shots to a predetermined height, a motor which drives the bucket elevator, and a control device which controls the current value of the motor. The control device issues an alert when the current value of the motor becomes lower than a predetermined current value.

A powder chamber, in particular for powder polishing devices, including a casing and two functional sectors, whereby the two functional sectors are arranged to be opposite to each other, and whereby at least one functional sector is designed to provide an opening for a working medium such as air or a mixture of powder and air, and whereby the two functional sectors are designed to allow the powder chamber to be locked. The two functional sectors are preferably arranged along an axis and are rotationally symmetric.
