Beadblast Cabinet

BRENT in 10-uh-C

Well-known member
I am in the market for a new commercial Media Blast Cabinet for my shop. Below is a few of my criteria:

~First & foremost, ...it must do an excellent job at blasting. (like continuous media siphoning, good rate of media blast, and great dust removal)

~Next, I am seeking a unit capable of being used in an hospital operating room!! (No leaks and good dust collection)

~Large enough to be able to put a Front Fender in with room to blast it completely.

~A unit capable of being used for approximately 10-15 hours a week.


Outside of that, I am looking for input on top load vs. side load units. What manufacturer's unit have you used and what did you like/dislike about it??
 
Shoot, a few months ago there was one local to me on craigslist. Major name large industrial size for $1500, waaaaayyyyyy too cheap, and with the dust collectors to boot. All I could think was someone was getting the deal of a lifetime. Needless to say it was off CL by the end of the day.

Ya I know that does not help you. It would have been what you wanted and at the right price.

Look at this:

I have used them for years..Continuous duty and NO exhaust dust in the room.
 
Look at TP tools and equiptment. They are in canfield ohio. The web address is TPTOOLS.COM. I purchased instructions and components and built my own cabinet.
 
I would second Trinco. Although I only have a 36" it has worked reliably for
over 20 years. good pull through dust control. Parts are always available such as plastic window covers ,gloves and nozzle orifices.
 
I would concur that Trinco has a good product. I have used one for years. I recommend that, whatever you choose, it have a cyclone type dust removal/bead recovery system. This system does an excellent job of dust removal as well as recycling the heavier beads for more economy.

My two cents worth would be to build a 10' x 12' building. Put the equiptment outside to lessen the noise and dust.

Brent,

I have a Trinco, 25 years old, its 2' X 4', works great. I know they make a bigger
unit, 2 window, 4 glove unit. I think you mite be dreaming a little, if you expect
it to be that clean, there is a debris field around the machine, and I'm real picky
about blowing out the parts and the inside of the cabinet, letting it " rest " with
the dust collector ON, before opening the door.
