Spanish term or phrase: granallado
Good evening:

I hope that you can assist me with the term "granallado" in this context.

Context:
Formular y aplicar Plan de Mantenimiento Preventivo aplicable a la turbina, para prevenir
deterioro del rodete, álabes directrices y caracol, tomando en cuenta la información brindada
por los planos y manuales de mantenimiento del fabricante.
 Describir las metodologías para el diagnóstico de averías al sistema de turbina, y determinar
las causas que las originan.
 Determinar los métodos para la aplicación del mantenimiento correctivo aplicable al rodete,
álabes directrices y caracol.
 Seleccionar los ensayos no destructivos adecuados para identificar defectos en los
componentes metálicos, según se amerite.
 Determinar los métodos de reparaciones mediante soldaduras en sitio para reponer material
perdido debido a fenómenos de cavitación o erosión.
 Evaluar la pertinencia de aplicar tratamientos térmicos, ***granallado *** u otros procesos en el sitio.
 Detallar los métodos para la recuperación de los perfiles de los álabes de rodete y de otros
componentes de turbina, para la obtención de las mejores eficiencias y para la reducción del
ruido, vibraciones, cavitación y erosión.

I found this reference but I am unsure:

My attempt (US English):
■ Evaluate the appropriateness of applying heat treatment, **shot-blasting/peening/or other term*** or other processes in situ.

Thank you so much.

Regards.
