To show how this is possible, we talk about what an abrasive blast system is, the variables that affect the efficiency of your blasting process, how to reduce dynamic pressure loss, the difference between air pressure and air flow, and how changing your blast setup affects the overall cost of your job. In this video we go over the key points of the series that result in us finding a blasting setup that can save you both time and money - but remember you can always watch any part, at any time if you want the full story. In part 1, we cover what an abrasive blast system is. Typically, an air compressor feeds air to an Abrasive Blast Machine, where the high pressure air is mixed with the abrasive media, which then travels along the blast hose, and out of the nozzle at the end; hitting the surface being blasted, creating a surface profile for painting, removing any rust or existing coatings in the process. The main goal of an abrasive blast system is to provide the abrasive with as much energy of movement, also known as kinetic energy, as possible. So how do we give the abrasive more kinetic energy? This is discussed in-detail in part 2, by looking at the key variables that affect the efficiency of your blasting process, addressing the effects of air quality (air humidity in particular), and choice of abrasive. We also look in more detail at how to reduce dynamic pressure losses. In part 3, we look at the remaining variables that affect your blast efficiency, which include the importance of finding the optimum setting on your abrasive media valve, to get the right mix of air and abrasive. The remaining variables; the compressor pressure setting, the often misunderstood compressor air capacity (typically measured in CFM or l/s), and your choice of blast nozzle; are all linked, and getting the best combination of these settings is vital. In part 4 we find out how much changing your setup can save you through a series of Elcometer-commissioned tests undertaken by an independent blasting company, with more than 30 years of industry experience. In this video series we will be showing you how you can optimise your blasting. To do that, we will cover what an abrasive blast system is and what it is trying to do, discover the variables that affect the efficiency of your blasting process, how to reduce dynamic pressure losses, explore the difference between air pressure and air flow and how it affects your blasting setup; and show how changing your setup can dramatically affect the overall cost of your job, as well as how we’ve proved it.
