Spot Blasting Equipment
Introduction
We offer 2 different Spot Blasting Machines – the IBIX Portable Blast Machine and the Eductomatic which features vacuum recovery. Ideal for spot cleaning, removing weld spatter, and deburring cut metal edges.
Available from The Surface Finishing Equipment Group - Abraclean in the Northwest UK and Hogg Blasting and Finishing Equipment in the Northeast UK.
Eductomatic
Our small closed-circuit tool, the hand-portable EductOMatic goes anywhere and operates on just 90 cfm of air at 100 psi. The operator controls blasting and recovery with a trigger handle. Pulling the trigger just slightly starts the vacuum recovery. Pulling the trigger all the way starts the suction blast system.
The compact conical hopper contains the abrasive and meters it into the blast system. Air rushing through the EductOMatic’s mixing chamber draws the abrasive into the airstream and propels it out the nozzle. The blast head swivels to allow blasting at any angle and the rubber boot traps the dust and abrasive. The vacuum captures the reusable abrasive particles and sends the dust and broken abrasive to the dust bag.
The EductOMatic cleans an area about one inch wide. After blasting, the operator releases the
trigger about halfway to stop blasting, but continues vacuuming for two or three seconds to recover any
remaining dust and abrasive. Fully releasing the trigger stops the vacuum system. The EductOMatic is designed for use with iron / steel grit. The simple cotton bag traps dust.

IBIX
The IBIX range of ultra portable open blast machines are designed with portability in mind. The unit has low maintenance and can easily be taken into confined areas making it ideal for shipping and offshore industries.
The high grade aluminium construction makes the unit very light and at the same time robust. Wheels are fitted to allow the unit to be towed in a trolley form but the IBIX machines can also be operated like a back-pack.
Two versions of this machine are available to suit most budgets and application requirements.
Unlike conventional blast pots the IBIX units utilize a unique pistol style gun and nozzle arrangement which doubles as a deadman system for safety reasons.
