3.5 The Wheel Kit
The heart of every blast machine is the blast wheel
(3). This will throw the abrasive to the surface using
centrifugal forces.
The blast wheel is placed in a wheel housing (G)
protected with replaceable wear plates (S). The blast
wheel is driven by a electric motor.
The center of the blast wheel shows a pre-accelerator,
called an impeller (1) feeding dosed quantities of abrasive
onto the blades of the turning blast wheel. The abrasive
has to pass the opening at the Control Cage (2).
3.6 The Separator
The separator (1) is mounted to the
end of the rebound plenum. The
separator separates the reusable
abrasive from the dust and brings it
back into circulation.
The dust travels through the hose
connector and the dust hose into the
filter.
