AIR - HYDROSANDBLASTER Water Blast

The Air - Hydrosandblaster system also allows:

• Automatic shut-off of water jet: When the sandblaster is turned off
• Adjustment of water quantity: By operators from the working area
• Constant water capacity: Of 2.5 litres/min. up to a maximum distance of 80 metres.

The abrasive humidification benefits in free spray sandblasting are 5 at least:

 Dust collecting

By humidifying sand before spraying, one can halt dustiness produced by blast of air and stop whipped up dust produced by treatment of surfaces. 

2. Higher safety for operators

Humidification allows to carry out sandblasting operations, avoiding contact with whipped up dust or harmful substances, protecting the operator and those who are in the workplace. 

3. Water waste reduction

Water Blast does not flood the area of intervention. It uses 2 litres per minute of water, only 
compared to 80 litres of a common hydro cleaning machine! 

4. A greater impact force on surfaces

The humidified granules of sand sprayed by the gun increase their own specific weight, producing a greater impact force and a higher removal performance. 

5. A reduction in management costs

Humidification consumes less air, less water, less abrasive...but most of all it allows to use low cost dusty sands which remarkably reduce management costs.

Why air-hydro sandblasting is better than common hydro sandblasting?

There are several reasons. It is important to underline that hydro sandblasting takes advantage of the venturi principle: by simply using a common hydro cleaning machine, one can get a mixture of water and abrasive.

However, the Waterblast system offers several advantages, including:

• Greater efficiency and precision.
• Reduction of environmental impact.
• Increased safety for the operator.

 N.B. The system may be powered by connection to water supply system or by means of water tank.

Applications of Waterblast multifunction water blasting machines

Waterblast multifunction water blasting machines are used in different industrial sectors:

• Shipbuilding: Removal of rust and old paints from the keels of ships.
• Petrochemical Industry: Cleaning and sandblasting of tanks, infrastructures and pipes.
• Building: Sandblasting facades, cleaning of concrete and brick surfaces, maintenance and verification of reinforcement irons.
• Industrial Maintenance: Maintenance and cleaning of machinery and plants.
