Processing description Depending on what loading option is selected at time of order, this is performed via a 3 jaw effector on single inline rack or via a 2 jaw manipulator for the Vapormatt tool multi row pallet. The tool gets sequentially transferred to the blast and rinse zones. The rinsing zone uses mains water with overflow to drain as standard, but an ecofriendly recirculating rinse system is available as an option. Due to the inherent nature of the blasting system the effector fingers get rinsed alongside the tool to remove majority of the abrasive (further cleaning may be required as...
