The Advantages of a Blast Room
compared to open air blasting: The controlled environment of a blast room has many advantages that justify the investment. Confining abrasive blast operations to a controlled, clean environment enables efficient abrasive recycling which has huge cost savings over using single-use abrasive. Blasting doesn’t have to wait for good weather so your production will increase. Well planned abrasive blast room designs include details such as an amply lit work area, an abrasive reclaim floor, an abrasive/trash separation system and a dust collector for keeping the environment clean and contaminant free. The bottom line is blast rooms are a more efficient and productive way to blast.
Types Of Blast Rooms
- We provide blast room solutions from small to very large industrial operations. “Sandblast” rooms are generally split into two categories based on how the used abrasive is recovered: Mechanical Recovery and Pneumatic Recovery.
Mechanical Recovery
Medium to Heavy Production
Mechanical recovery blast rooms use augers and lift buckets to physically move used abrasive from the blast room to the abrasive recovery system. The slower speed of abrasive through the recovery system results in less wear and tear.
Pneumatic Recovery
Light to Medium Production
Pneumatic recovery blast rooms use vacuum to move used abrasive from the blast room to the abrasive recovery system. They can be a good option for light to medium production operations.
