Loading new abrasive and sweeping up or shoveling used abrasive is backbreaking, time-consuming work that takes operators away from blasting.
Manually loading and recovering abrasive can take up to 50% of an abrasive blasting project’s time. It’s work that fatigues operators, making them less focused and productive, and it can lead to operator injuries and expose them to hazardous dust. It also takes operators away from the reason they are on the job site—to be blasting.
For these reasons, Clemco offers two Easy Load Abrasive Loading/Recovery Systems and one Easy Load Recovery System that all speed up your abrasive loading and recovery, boosting the productivity of your abrasive blasting operation while helping to contain dust and protect operators from injury.
