SATURN HD Blast Wheel

Reduce maintenance time and costs

• Higher abrasive velocities allow you to use a smaller sized abrasive to significantly reduce wear
• Wheelabrator’s precise balancing and machining processes produce extremely long life wear parts (including heavy duty motor, bearings and other cast parts)
  • Full cast, heavy duty manganese housing with 3 piece liner as standard
  • Fabricated housing with 9pc liner package for grit applications
  • Blade set weight tolerances within 3 grams
• Vibration and abrasive consumption are reduced by the exacting impelor casting process, which is concentric on 3 axes
• Motor failures caused by abrasive intrusion are eliminated by the SATURN HD’s effective, integrated, frictionless hub seal
• Low maintenance times are achieved due to the “10 minute replacement
• Tune Up Kit” – even by inexperienced technicians
• The time-consuming full removal of the cap nut and washer is unnecessary due to the SATURN HD’s hinged lid and safety swing nuts
• Shot locking is greatly reduced thanks to the integrated Acme threads

Direct drive motor

Both the fabricated and cast housing SATURN HD units use a direct coupled motor to deliver the following benefits:

• Increased drive motor efficiencies by up to 20% 
• Lower wheel cost 
• Increased abrasive flow rates 
• Lower installation cost 
• Space requirement reduced by half compared to conventional blast wheel units
