Blast machine made for heavy-duty operations

Viking Blast & Wash Systems has released the model 1200 tumble belt blast machine. The 12-cu.-ft. machine incorporates changes to the loader and discharge belt options that help make it durable for heavy-duty operations.

An integrated media lift system and no auger gives the unit a small footprint and improved component accessibility. The 25-HP VKPowerMax series blast wheel has been repositioned to optimize the blast pattern. The drum heads and side liners are manganese alloy as standard.

Optional features are a rotary scalping drum for removing debris from blast media, front-bucket loader, take-away belt, auxiliary abrasive hopper, and custom unloading conveyors.

Peening requirements are satisfied with optional variable-speed blast wheel control, electromagnetic abrasive control valve, and classifier, as well as optional PLC and touchscreen for preprogrammed, recorded, part-specific recipes.
