Description

The Aquablast 915 wet blasting machine is designed by Vixen to simultaneously degrease and blast multiple components.

The process cleans by flow and not by impact, producing a 'soft' finish. The water acts as a lubricant, avoiding media impregnation and also extending the life of the blast media.

The Typical Process is as Follows:

  • The water/media slurry is contained within the wet blasting cabinet sump.
  • Delivery of the slurry to the manual blast nozzle is via a glandless polyurethane pump and associated hoses located inside the wet blasting machine.
  • Compressed air is added at the blast nozzle to accelerate the slurry and create the cleaning effect.
  • After contact with the component, the slurry then drains back into the sump creating a re-circulating system.
  • Fine broken down media and other contaminants are fed via an overflow to a sedimentation filter located at the rear of the wet blasting machine.

A current model from Vixen, the Aquablast cabinet is used for the cleaning, degreasing and removal of debris from workpieces.

All constructed of stainless steel , the cabinet also features an internally submersed glandless polyurethane pump and tungsten carbide tipped blast nozzle. Used media and other contaminants are removed via overflow

  • Water wash gun drain tank to the rear
  • Single right hand side door
  • 3 phase media/water circulation pump

  • 2.2kW media blast pump mounted directly into the sump
