Suppliers of Abrasive Blasting Machines

AIRPLUS supplies abrasive blasting equipment from portable solutions to dedicated blast rooms and fully automated systems, plus media recovery systems in Canada.

Abrasive Blasting & Sandblasting

Abrasive blasting is more commonly known as sandblasting which is the process of propelling a stream of abrasive material (not necessarily sand) against a surface using a compressed-air stream. Abrasive blasting is a common, reliable, cost-effective method of surface preparation and metal finishing to clean, deburr, scale, and remove rust, leaving the metal surface substrate with a desirable finish for painting, powder coating, or other final finishing processes.

Compressed Air Abrasive Blasting Equipment

AIRPLUS Industrial supplies compressed air abrasive blasting equipment to British Columbia and Western Canada. Our systems are used with loose abrasive blast media and offer a reliable technique for a wide range of surface preparation including shot peening, degreasing, cleaning, and stripping.

Abrasive Blasting Equipment | AIRPLUS Industrial

AIRPLUS Industrial offers a diverse range of Abrasive Blasting Equipment including:

  • Air Blast Rooms: Controlled and environmentally clean blast rooms with abrasive recycling for high efficiency and high productivity operations.
  • Air Blast Tumble Equipment: Mill-driven tumble blast machines with oscillating nozzles, a cyclone separator, and a rubber-lined chamber.
  • Fully Automated Blast Systems: Fully-automated blasting machines offer precision and safety for performed operations. These systems allow for increased efficiency, improvement and consistency of quality, of work done, and the ability to redeploy labour to more important, less monotonous work.
  • Robotic Blast Systems: Commercially available robots can successfully be integrated into a variety of pre-engineered robotic blast cells, customized robotic blast systems, and robotic blast rooms.
  • Portable Blasting Systems: Portable pressure pots in a range of sizes for increased productivity with any abrasive media, depending on your application.
  • Portable Blasting System Packages: Prepackaged systems including remote controls, safety equipment and respiratory accessories – contact our sales team to build a package to your specifications.
  • Blast Cabinets: Cabinets in a range of sizes for any application. Available in economically priced suction (siphon) feed systems or direct pressure style cabinets for those higher volume applications.
  • Bulk Blasting Systems: Bulk blasters are available as stationary systems or can be mounted on highway and yard trailers for total portability.
  • Recovery Systems: Blast systems that blast and vacuum simultaneously for removal of coatings, corrosion, and other materials in applications where traditional open-air blasting is prohibited or impractical. We also provide pneumatic and mechanical recovery systems.
  • Cryogenic Deflashing Systems: Cryogenic Deflashing Machines for rubber, plastic, diecast, magnesium and zinc components.
  • Wet Blast Equipment: Wet surface treatment process equipment, mixing abrasive with water thereby eliminating frictional heat; this surface preparation method deburrs by means of a scrubbing action versus impingement and abrasion found in dry blasting.

Abrasive Blast Safety Equipment

Health Hazards of Abrasive Blasting

Abrasive blasting operations can create high levels of dust and noise. Abrasive material and the surface being blasted may contain toxic materials that are hazardous to workers. Employers must protect workers from hazardous dust levels and toxic metals that may be generated from both the blasting material and the underlying substrate and coatings being blasted.
