This Wet Blasting Machine is top-of-the-range amongst the standard Aquablast® products.
The process cleans by flow to produce a 'soft' finish, while eliminating impact. With water acting as a lubricant, media impregnation is avoided and the life of the blast media consequently extended.
The full process is detailed below:
The water/media slurry is contained within the wet blasting cabinet sump
Delivery of the slurry to the manual blast nozzle is via a glandless polyurethane pump and associated hoses located inside the wet blasting machine
Compressed air is added at the blast nozzle to accelerate the slurry and provide the cleaning effect
After contact with the component, the slurry then drains back into the sump creating a re-circulating system
Fine broken down media and other contaminants are fed via an overflow to a sedimentation filter located at the rear of the wet blasting machine.
