Blastrac 1-10DS

Typically, shot blasting is one of the cleanest and fastest methods of mechanical abrasion. In addition to a “typical” coating job (if there truly is one), shot blasting can also be used for floors in sensitive areas that are otherwise “off limits” to other methods. Food preparation or manufacturing areas, clean rooms, working around sensitive inventory or machinery, or simply areas where chemical-free, dustless methods are required are all candidates for shot blasting.

At the heart of our concrete shotblasting services lies the Blastrac 1-10DS shotblaster—a technological marvel designed for precision and efficiency. This advanced equipment ensures a thorough and meticulous process, laying the foundation for flawless concrete surfaces ready for the next phase of transformation.

The recycling wheel blast technology found in most shot blasters works by throwing steel shot or grit at a high velocity onto the surface being cleaned (such as the concrete floor). This is achieved through centrifugal force by a wheel with removable paddle-type blades that revolve at a high speed. Abrasive travels along the radial length of the blade and is thrown at a high velocity in a predetermined and adjustable direction.

Once the abrasive impacts the surface, it dislodges the coating and/or debris, thereby cleaning the surface. Shot blasting will only remove coatings 8 mils or less, if thicker, diamond grinding the coatings from the surface yields the best result. The abrasive and debris rebound into a reclaim chamber where it is recycled. The reusable abrasive is separated from the
dust and debris and is transported into a storage hopper for recirculation. Airflow transports the dust and debris
through a hose to a dust collector.
