Vapour Blaster
Product Overview: Vapor Blaster 1100/1000 Industrial Machine
The Vapor Blaster 1100/1000 is a high-performance, industrial-grade wet blasting cabinet designed for superior cleaning, finishing, and surface preparation. Utilizing a unique vapor blast technology, it delivers an unmatched finish without damaging substrates, making it the ideal solution for critical pre-coating preparation and precision component cleaning.
Key Features:
-
Generous Work Envelope: 1100mm (W) x 1100mm (D) x 1000mm (H) internal capacity for handling large or multiple components.
-
Vapor Blast Technology: Combines water, abrasive media, and compressed air to create a gentle yet effective slurry that cleans and finishes without embedding abrasive or generating excessive heat.
-
Superior Finish: Produces a consistent, satin-matte finish that is perfect for promoting coating adhesion.
-
Dust-Free Operation: The water curtain effectively suppresses dust, creating a safer working environment and containing debris within the cabinet.
-
Robust Construction: Built from heavy-duty stainless steel and plastics to resist corrosion and ensure long-term durability.
Detailed Technical Description
The Vapor Blaster 1100/1000 is engineered for demanding industrial applications. Its core function is to propel a slurry of fine abrasive media and water against a part's surface using compressed air. This "vapor blast" process is notably different from dry blasting:
-
The Process: Water subdues the impact of the abrasive, cushioning the blast to gently remove contaminants like rust, scale, old paint, and carbon deposits. It simultaneously peens the surface, creating a perfect, clean profile for coatings to adhere to.
-
The Result: Components are left impeccably clean with a uniform, matte finish free of embedded abrasive particles. This eliminates coating failures caused by contamination or poor adhesion. The process is also ideal for restoring parts to a "like-new" appearance for functional or aesthetic purposes.
Ideal Applications:
-
Pre-Coating Preparation: The premier choice for preparing surfaces for thermal spray (e.g., HVOF, Plasma Spray), painting, powder coating, and bonding.
-
Critical Component Cleaning: Perfect for cleaning engine blocks, cylinder heads, turbine components, injection molds, and intricate machinery parts without causing dimensional change or damage.
-
Restoration: Excellently removes corrosion and discoloration from classic car parts, tools, and valuable machinery, restoring them to their original condition.
-
Decontamination: Effectively removes radioactive or hazardous particles from surfaces, as the water slurry prevents them from becoming airborne.
