That's an insane amount of dust for a single day!

Can you share more about your process?
1) Exactly what type and size / hardness of peening media are you using?
2) What is the intensity range?
Are you using wheel or pneumatic type peening equipment?
3) Are parts cleaned prior to peening them peen them?
