U-Shaped Partial Reclaim
The “U”-shaped partial reclaim system adds two longitudinal metered screw assemblies along each side wall of the blast room and positions the cross screw along the back wall of the blast room. The position of the screw assemblies allows the abrasive delivered from the blasting nozzle, which is either blown or rebounded off the work piece, to strike the side walls and back wall of the blast room and fall into the reclaim system. A U-shaped reclaim floor design will automatically reclaim 60-90 percent of the blast media.
Cost Effective Reclaim System for Low-Volume Operations
The remaining abrasive on the floor is pushed into the metered shed plate screw assemblies at the end of the work shift. The U-Shaped partial reclaim system design is typically utilized in an “in-out” room configuration where heavy work pieces and/or material handling devices can drive into the room and position the work piece on the steel covered concrete floor located between the longitudinal and cross screw assemblies. This system is best suited for medium to high production.
