Blast room

A self-contained Hodge Clemco blast room with high-performance sound insulation and abrasive recovery system has expanded the in-house production capabilities of Cheshire Anilox Technology, a leading manufacturer of high-quality rollers for printing presses.

The blast room enables Cheshire Anilox to prepare the rollers for surface coating in the factory. The chamber measures 4.5m long x 2.5m wide x 2.5m high and has double access doors at one end to allow large components to be moved in and out easily. Double-skinned panels with an acoustic lining have been used for the construction, which greatly reduces the noise that can be heard outside the chamber when blasting is taking place.
