INSPECTION INSTRUMENTS

Blastline offers a variety of Blast Room designs and room configurations which allow us to design a blast room facility uniquely tailored to meet the economic production, safety, and environmental concerns of each customer. This brochure will provide an overview of the blast rooms, abrasive recovery, recycling, and ventilation solutions offered by Blastline.
Blast room system is used in a wide range of industries that require surface preparation prior to the application of a protective coating. The surface of the workpiece is cleaned by a mixture of abrasive and high-pressure compressed air being directed at the workpiece by a blast nozzle. The blast room also provides lighting & ventilation for the operator’s safety.
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.
Our design engineers can come up with a bespoke solution so that the resulting manual blast room caters to your every production needs, working with you throughout the design process, including helping you to choose what accessories you want to fit the system with. We provide a suitable, customized service, helping you sort through all the options to capitalize on any existing facilities and decide on specifications in terms of the professional sandblasting system’s dimensions and features
