New from the EnviraSponge Division
of the Samuel Hodge Group is a dry
abrasive blasting system that
minimises dust, improves visibility for
operators and reduces containment
and extraction requirements.
The process is particularly suitable for confined spaces and areas where uncontrolled dust causes problems for operators or damages other equipment.
The EnviraSponge system uses an advanced sponge-coated abrasive that flattens on impact with the target surface, allowing the abrasive to make contact with it and perform the work required, while the sponge absorbs the dust created in a controlled way.
Media is currently available in nine standard grades, giving profiles on steel from 5 to 100 microns.
