Skid-Mounted Blasting System

Skid-mounted blasting systems offer a portable, self-contained, and high-performance solution for various industrial applications requiring abrasive blasting. These systems are designed to be mounted on a skid frame, making them highly mobile and ideal for use in remote or hard-to-access locations. A skid-mounted blasting system is ideal for cleaning, preparing, and finishing metal surfaces, concrete, stone, and industrial equipment.

With high-efficiency performance, ease of transport, and reliable power, our skid-mounted blasting systems offer the perfect combination of flexibility and power for any industrial blasting need.

How Skid-Mounted Blasting Systems Work

Skid-mounted blasting systems work by using a compressed air system to propel abrasive materials like sand, glass beads, or steel grit at high velocities to clean or prepare surfaces. The key components of the system include:

How It Works

Blasting Pot: Stores the abrasive material and releases it through the nozzle at high pressure to clean or prepare surfaces

Compressor: Provides the necessary air pressure for propelling the abrasive material at the surface

Control Panel: Manages air pressure, abrasive flow, and nozzle adjustments to ensure consistent and effective blasting

Nozzles: Direct the abrasive material onto surfaces, and are available in various sizes and shapes for different applications

Skid Frame: A rugged, mobile frame that houses all components of the system, making it easy to transport and set up at job sites
