BNP A200 & BNP A205
A ZERO BNP A200 or A205 put precise, repeatable
automated blast cleaning, surface finishing, deburring, and
peening within the reach of small to mid-size manufacturers and machining centers.
The BNP A200 measures four by four feet; the BNP A205
is a slightly larger cabinet (five by five feet) to allow more
options for gun placement and more room for maintenance
work. The two models share many features with ZERO’s
custom-engineered automated systems — indexing turntable, rotating satellites, automatic blow-off, and fingertip
process controls for cycle timer and parts rotation.
Versatile
Six low-profile satellites and generous 12-inch by
16-inch door openings accommodate a wide array of parts.
Each satellite supports up to 25 pounds, including the part
being blasted and the fixture to hold it in place.
Adjustable mounts allow the automatic blast guns to be
set at the appropriate angle and distance for the part
being blasted.

A200 Series - cabinet, reclaimer and dust collector
Unlike special purpose machines designed to clean
just one or two types of parts, A200 Series cabinets can
switch quickly from cleaning one part to another. Changing fixtures and repositioning blast guns takes just a few
minutes. The A200 Series’s greater flexibility allows a
manufacturer to spread the cost of a system across several
products.
Standard A200 Series cabinets come configured for
either two-station or single-station indexing. Two-station
indexing puts two parts in each of the blast, blow-off, and
load positions. Single-station indexing allows multi-step
blasting, such as inside and out or top and bottom.
A200 Series cabinets are packed with features

Precise & Repeatable
A200 Series cabinets deliver the same amount of blast
cleaning to the first part, the last part, and every part in
between. For shot peening applications, the A200 Series’
ability to deliver consistent, documentable peening intensity makes them perfect for aircraft turbine blades and
other precision parts.
For cleaning, deflashing, etching, and paint removal
applications, A200 Series cabinets can eliminate expensive
and time-consuming rework.
Safer —
for parts
and people
PRH collector traps dust and spent
media
A200 Series cabinets
prevent impingement
damage to delicate parts,
because the parts never
touch one another. Each
part enters the blast chamber mounted on a variablespeed rotating satellite. The
blast guns, firmly mounted
to a fixed or optional oscillating arm, maintain a
constant distance and angle
so parts receive the predetermined blast intensity and
coverage.
For employees, A200
Series cabinets eliminate
much of the fatigue and
repetitive motions associated with high-production
manual parts processing.
Dual palm buttons actuate
the index and blast cycle
only when the operator’s
hands are clear of moving
parts.
The A200 Series cabinets
stay sealed during blast and
blow-off, reducing the noise
level and trapping the dust
and media inside.
A200 Series cabinets come equipped with a reverse pulse
cartridge dust collector, sized for the number of blast guns
used. This efficient, self-cleaning dust collector maintains
negative pressure in the enclosure to prevent dust from
escaping. Dust and spent media fall into a sealed drum,
which can be fitted with a trash bag so employees do not
handle dust when emptying the drum.
Economical
A200 Series cabinets save labor, time, and blast media,
and help prevent costly rework. The standard six-gun
system can thoroughly blast a part inside and out in a
fraction of the time required by an operator using a single
blast gun or other manual process. These cabinets are
available as standard models with 6, 8, or 12 suction guns.
Additional suction guns (beyond 12) or the higher-production pressure blast system are available to meet specific
production requirements.
A200 Series cabinets can use
most recyclable blast media.

The reclaimer separates reusable
media from dust and spent media
An efficient, externally
adjusable reclaimer separates the dust and fractured
media from the clean,
reusable media. The
reclaimer’s ability to recycle
blast media saves money
and media loading time.
Durable
Heavy-gauge steel construction throughout, with
replaceable rubber curtains
in the blast chamber, make
A200 Series cabinets longlasting machines. A wear
plate in the reclaimer and
heavy, lined hose between the cabinet and reclaimer reduce
the frequency of replacement for these key components.
Sealed bearings keep the cast aluminum satellites rotating
freely under loads of up to 25 pounds. Thick urethane
protects the tops of the satellites from the blast.
Scratch- and oil-resistant paint keep the cabinet, reclaimer,
and dust collector looking new for years. The door latches
are made from durable painted steel to stay new looking
longer.

ZERO Automation systems can save you
time and money – they are the choice of
production managers around the globe to meet
the demand for higher, more efficient work
processes and output. Managers choose
ZERO Automation for their jobs that call for
precision and repeatability, impossible in
manual operations. ZERO Automation can
significantly reduce the risk of repetitive
motion injuries by minimizing the operator’s
role in the blast process.
Our systems will enhance your efficiencies
and boost your throughput capacity, alleviating
production bottlenecks. From simple nozzle
oscillation to purpose-built enclosures, ZERO
Automation combines proven technology with
the latest parts handling and control
technologies. Each system is designed and
built to suit our customer’s application—even
the paint color can be custom-specified.
While automated systems require a greater
initial investment than manual cabinets,
depending upon your application, your
investment can quickly pay for itself in labor
savings and efficiencies. With a variety of
available technologies, ZERO Automation can
be designed to accommodate most budgets.
An operator uses a joy-stick control to remove
coating with plastic media from an aircraft wheel.
Front Cover: Multi-purpose PLC - controlled machine
designed and built to operate in indexing or continuous
turntable modes processes a variety of aircraft engine
components. Teach-and-repeat program controls unique

Sophisticated
software monitors
proximity sensors and
video cameras to watch
parts moving through
this unique blast cabinet.
ZERO Automation combines the technological sophistication
required by the application, the desired production rate, and the
budget. Our available technologies include multi-axis robotics,
both for parts handling and nozzle articulation, proximity sensors,
video monitors for real-time visual inspection, and multi-stage
cabinets to clean, then automatically finish parts in a single pass.
Planning
Our free sample processing service helps you determine if automation is right for your products. You supply representative parts, and
we process them using various parameters – media, pressure, angle,
distance, part movement, blast duration. We encourage customers to
visit our lab to participate in processing their parts. Following
processing, we return the parts, along with a detailed report on how
each was processed. Once sample processing demonstrates that
blasting can produce the desired result, our sales engineers divide the
process into its basic elements:
• positioning the part – create parts handling compatible with
existing systems
• aiming the nozzle(s) – fixed, oscillating, or robotic-arm mounted
• managing the media – effectively recover and clean the blast
media
• controlling the process – simple cycle timers, PLCs, or custom
software
