Separation Technologies In Body Repair; Application: Sanding

Sanding can be a very favorable alternative to drilling, especially when loosening high-strength welded connections. Weld points, laser weld connections, or brazed seams can be loosened very efficiently by sanding. Also make sure here that the underlying materials are not impaired or damaged any more than necessary.

Disadvantages of sanding:

• Due to the flying sparks, extensive protective measures are necessary on the vehicle and in the surrounding area.
• Higher temperature build-up than when drilling, thus more damage to residual material and corrosion protection.
