Wheelabrator's manual cabinet range covers dry suction-fed, dry pressure-fed and wet-blast processing. The family spans less aggressive finishing through higher-output production work, with compact cabinets designed for enclosed industrial work areas.
| Equipment family | Manual dry and wet blast cabinets |
|---|---|
| Dry-media compatibility | Dry, free-running abrasives |
| Feed methods | Suction-fed or pressure-fed |
| Wet process | Water-abrasive mixture |
| Named cabinet families | SmartLine, Vacu-Blast Ventus, Vaqua |
| Wet-process functions | Cleaning, degreasing and finishing |
Pressure-fed cabinets are intended for production applications requiring higher work output and controlled abrasive quality. Suction-fed cabinets provide a less aggressive treatment and use significantly less compressed air, with lower removal performance.
Wet blasting circulates a water-abrasive mixture. Water carries away grease and oil contamination while suppressing airborne process dust.
The range moves from manual equipment to highly automated arrangements, so the cabinet family and automation level should be selected separately.
| SmartLine | Mild-steel suction- or pressure-fed airblast cabinets for production environments |
|---|---|
| Vacu-Blast Ventus | Pressure- or suction-fed cabinet range with configuration flexibility |
| Vaqua | Wet-blast cabinet for production cleaning, degreasing and finishing |
Wet blasting is used in component refurbishment, including motor and compressor parts, and in clean production environments such as aerospace and medical work.
Dry blasting is appropriate where free-running abrasive media and the required finish are compatible with the component material.
Key choices are wet versus dry processing, suction versus pressure feed, abrasive type, desired removal rate, component size and required operator access. Utilities, dust extraction and media handling must match the final cabinet configuration.
