Blast room equipment is used in a wide variety of industries that
require surface preparation prior to the application of a protective coating. The surface
of the work piece is cleaned by a mixture of abrasive and high pressure compressed air
being directed at the work piece by a blast operator. The operator holds a venturi nozzle
tipped hose in his hands and controls the abrasive/air mixture generated at the blast
machine with an "on the hose" operator switch. The blast room contains the
abrasive being shot at the work piece, as well as providing lighting and ventilation for
the operator's safety. The abrasive and surface particle mix (i.e., paint chips, surface
rust, mill scale, etc) are collected by the floor reclamation system and brought back to
the classifier to separate reusable abrasive from waste. The reusable abrasive is stored
in a bin above the blast machine and is ready for the cycle to start again.
Industries that require this process include:
- Steel Fabricators
- Trailers
- Construction Equipment
- Oil Field Equipment
- Railcars
- Ship Building
- Steel Tanks
