Skid mounted blasting system for on-site surface preparation

It is used for surface preparation, rust removal, paint and coating removal, concrete cleaning and industrial equipment maintenance. Because the blasting pot, compressor, controls and nozzles sit on one frame, it suits project sites, yards and remote locations where a compact, mobile set-up is needed.

A compressor supplies air that carries abrasive from the blasting pot to the nozzle at high velocity. The control panel regulates air pressure and abrasive flow, and the nozzle directs the abrasive onto the surface to clean or profile it. All parts are housed on a heavy-duty steel skid.

The system works at 2–12 bar air pressure, with air flow of 10–100 CFM depending on system capacity. The setting depends on the abrasive, the surface and whether you need light cleaning or a deeper profile for coating. Higher pressure and air volume increase cleaning speed but also abrasive consumption.

Common abrasives are sand, glass beads, steel grit and copper slag. Glass beads suit finishing and light cleaning, while steel grit and copper slag suit rust removal and profiling. Check local rules on abrasive use and dust control before choosing.

Yes. It is widely used to remove rust, old paint, coatings, corrosion and surface contamination from steel and other metal surfaces before repainting. Tungsten carbide nozzles are recommended for heavy, regular rust and paint removal because they wear more slowly.

Yes. It cleans and profiles concrete surfaces before coating, repair or finishing work on construction and infrastructure projects. The abrasive and pressure are selected so the surface is opened up without excessive damage. Dust control and containment should be planned for work in occupied or enclosed areas.

Choose an electric compressor where stable power is available, such as a fixed workshop or plant. Choose a diesel compressor for outdoor, remote or mobile work, and for heavy-duty blasting where power is not available on site. Compressor size must match the air volume the nozzle needs, so share nozzle size and hours of use.

Yes. It is used for ship hull cleaning, marine equipment cleaning, rust removal and surface preparation in shipyards and offshore maintenance, removing salt, rust and biofouling before recoating. Tell us the hull or structure size, access arrangements and whether the work is in dock or at the quay, so the skid and compressor can be sized to suit.

Yes. The skid can be configured for cleaning field equipment, removing coatings and rust from large oilfield assets, or preparing wind tower surfaces for recoating. Share the asset type, access conditions and required finish so we can configure it. Remote sites usually need a diesel compressor.

This skid uses compressed air to propel dry abrasive. Hydro blasting uses a high pressure water pump with no abrasive, and wet sandblasting adds water to the abrasive to reduce dust. If dust control or water-only cleaning is important, look at our hydro blasting and wet sandblasting equipment instead.
