Reasons to come to Power Blast for all your Blast Cleaning equipment needs.

• Unique Power Blast Machines: Our custom designed Power Blast / Blast Cleaning Machines are instantly recognisable by their unique spherical shape. Working Power Blast cleaning machines can be found in operation the world over.
  
• Containerised Blast Rooms: Power Blast are the pioneers in containerised Shot-blast / Sand Blasting Rooms and Finishing Booths and produced their first facility over 30 years ago.
  
• Dust collecting units: The single most expensive item in a shot blasting room is the ventilation system and to ensure a well ventilated room with good visibility and rapid dust clearance, the sizing of the dust collector is critical. (beware of low price under-sizing) sizes vary from cabinets/recovery units.
• Power Blast have a wealth of experience in the design and construction of special purpose blasting machines.
• Custom built rooms: For requirements that cannot be met by containerised facilities, Power Blast are able to design, manufacture and install on site a wide range of permanent facilities.
• Abrasive material recovery systems & Abrasive Recycling Units.
• Standard purpose built cabs: Power Blast manufacture a range of pressure operated cabinets. These are substantial, robust units (not to be confused with suction fed cabinets), are rubber lined internally and supplied with heavy duty perforated plate flooring.
• Protective clothing.

Abrasive blasting takes a heavy toll on your equipment and the various systems involved in the process. If your sand blasting machines are not serviced regularly it can compromise reliability, efficiency, safety, quality, and profitability. Please contact us to discuss your requirements, we are always pleased to help.

Sandblasting Rooms

21st centry abrasive blast systems depend on modern, well-designed blasting rooms to ensure a safe, confined, controlled, and clean environment for abrasive recycling. Whether your work is removing an existing coating or prepping a surface for a new coating the use of air compressors will be crucial.

Abrasive blasting rooms can have many sizing and material-preparation requirements. Many factors need to be taken into account including the size and weight of the largest anticipated workpiece, the material handling method, the hours spent blasting, and the base materials. Dpending on the size of the largest workpiece, four to five feet must be added to the width and length of the room. Our experts can advise you as to what you will need to provide a safe working environment.

Dust collection systems are critical components in abrasive blast rooms. These days, reverse pulse cartridge dust collectors are standard since they feature a reliable exhaust motor that brings air out of the space and traps it in filters. These collectors also have a reinforced pleated paper, which increases filter efficiency and reduces the size requirements of facility dust collection systems. Proper maintenance, such as routinely removing the dust on the cartridge is also important, please talk to us & we can advise you. Dust collectors must generate 50 feet per minute of airflow through the enclosure. Rates of up to 100 fpm may even be required for dusty material or the production of hazardous materials.

Whether you need to remove abrasive material from the inside of a tank car or smaller crevices or containers, vacuum recovery should be included in your plan. Blast media reclaimer systems should be carefully analyzed since efficient recovery systems are crucial for minimizing cleanup time and overall project costs. Efficient catching of the media for delivery to a recovery point and reliable transportation of the media to a cleaner area is critical for proper performance.

As Manufacturers and installers of these systems we offer a range ofs recovery solutions for full or partial floor area installations. Because there are no moving parts, pneumatic recovery systems work well with light media such as agriculture, plastic, glass beads, and aluminum oxide. The mechanical floor allows for lower purchase and installation costs and utilizes pneumatic power; it also features a ladder-like arrangement of steel vanes for power.

Screw floors are generally used for steel grit and shot. Although they are more expensive and require more excavation, they are best at moving the heaviest abrasives.
