  "title": "Portable Abrasive Blasting Machine | Wheelabrator",
  "kind": "reference",
  "company": "Wheelabrator",
  "parameters": {
    "System type": "Portable pressure-fed closed-circuit blasting machine",
    "Recovery options": "Compressed-air or electrically generated recovery",
    "Abrasive range": "Variants for light or heavy abrasives",
    "Media handling": "Continuous recovery with reusable abrasive returned to the gun",
    "Primary use": "Localized on-site blasting"
  },
  "summary": "This portable pressure-fed blasting range combines blasting and abrasive recovery in a compact closed-circuit format for localized surface preparation. Variants support light or heavy abrasives and either compressed-air or electrically generated recovery.",
  "sections": [
    {
      "heading": "Process arrangement",
      "paragraphs": [
        "The blast head and recovery circuit operate together so spent abrasive, dust and debris are collected continuously. Reusable abrasive is separated and returned to the blast gun, reducing manual handling between passes."

    {
      "heading": "Selection factors",
      "paragraphs": [
        "Choose the recovery method and abrasive-duty variant around the work location, available utilities and media type. The portable format suits on-site work and custom applications where a fixed blast cabinet is impractical."

    {
      "heading": "Operating boundary",
      "paragraphs": [
        "Actual containment and recovery performance depends on the selected head, seal against the workpiece, abrasive and extraction setup. Confirm compressed-air demand, electrical supply and media compatibility for the configured unit before production use."
