Vulkan Inox installs new pressure blast cabinet
Vulkan Inox has expanded its machine park with a new pressure blasting cabinet with an integrated quick-change abrasive system. The modern blasting system is ideal for demanding applications in industrial surface treatment.
The newly installed pressure blasting cabinet from Vulkan Inox complements the existing machinery and expands the possibilities in industrial surface treatment. The modular blasting system is ideal for sample processing and process development. The compressed air blast cabinet enables Vulkan Inox technicians to use both hand-guided nozzle movements and semi-automatic operation with a fixed nozzle arrangement. The blasting nozzle can be flexibly positioned and aligned within the working area. In combination with the precise dosing of the blasting medium and the freely selectable working pressure, the effect of the blast can be adjusted precisely and as required. Various nozzle configurations enable precise adjustment and processing of the blasting pattern - this ensures optimum processing even with complex geometries and difficult-to-access internal contours.
New blasting system for almost all types of blasting media
Special product carriers, turntables and rotary baskets enable a wide range of adjustments to the workpieces to be blasted. These ensure optimum alignment, movement and circulation of the workpieces, especially when blasting bulk material. The generously dimensioned side door also allows convenient loading and unloading of the work area, for example using a forklift truck. In combination with a cabin load capacity of 250 kg, this also ensures reliable processing of medium-heavy workpieces. In order to be able to develop customer-specific solutions, the pressure blasting cabinet was designed so that it can be used with almost all types, shapes and sizes of blasting media. A specially designed quick-change abrasive system enables the abrasive circuit to be emptied quickly and residue-free, so that samples or test series can be produced in quick succession. Even the most demanding workpieces and surfaces can be perfectly finished without long set-up times.
Efficient and sustainable abrasive recovery
The heart of the blasting system is the separate Power-Pack with abrasive recovery, blasting pot and filter system, which ensures the sustainable use of high-quality stainless steel abrasives. During the blasting process, the reusable blasting abrasive and any process residues are extracted from the work area by the recovery system and fed into a high-performance cyclone. This is where precise separation and processing takes place, during which the high-quality abrasive is sifted, cleaned and recovered for the next blasting cycle. Worn abrasive bodies and unwanted residues, on the other hand, are removed from the material cycle and collected by the filter system. Continuous processing is an essential prerequisite for the sustainable use of blasting abrasives. The processed abrasive is fed into an intermediate storage silo and automatically feeds the blasting pot below as soon as it is depressurized and opened.
