The optional use of two, three or four blast wheels in special positioning and with programmed start/stop functionality, allows the targeted treatment of both the horizontal and vertical visible surfaces – e.g. on fence blocks, kerbstones or block steps.

The concrete block blast machine can be integrated into a production line due to its modern control system with the relevant interfaces, different belt lengths and well coordinated transfer stations (e.g. sheets or rollers). The machines can be operated easily using a Siemens Touchpanel.

Wheelabrator concrete block shot blast machines can be sized to treat workpiece widths from 600 to 1500 mm. Both indexing and continuous operations are possible. The belt runs smoothly, at speeds from 2.5m/min to 14m/min.

Advantages

• The adjustable blast wheels provide a very uniform surface result, even at high speeds.
• This is assured by smooth/stepless speed control, electro-pneumatic dosage regulation and optimal blast wheel positioning.
• Furthermore, the use of hardened tool steel for the blast wheel wear parts assures a long service life.
