  • We have finally upgraded our sandblasting setup to a dustless blaster system! In this video we are setting up and testing out our new RapidBlast SD140 Dustless Blaster. This system is designed and built in Australia and combined with a Japanese built Airman PDS185 compressor this thing is absolutely awesome. We show how to get it set up and test it out by blasting a D10 bulldozer equalizer bar before performing a Dye penetrant crack test on the bar. We are extremely happy with this new setup, excited for the range of services we will be able to offer our customers and can’t wait to use it on our Franna crane project!

    Great setup Curtis. I once owned an auto body shop in Northern California and we had the contract for the Sheriffs department who had several boats. I was sand blasting a trailer for them one day and goofed up and blasted my wrist for just a fraction of a second.. OOOO AHH that hurt as it removed the skin from my wrist!. It stung like a burn and I learned to never blast without taped Gauntlet gloves on It eventually healed but no hair ever grew there again! It only takes once to learn my lesson!

It's such a thrill for me to watch Kurtis who take such obvious care with his work reminding me of those happy times, also, big shout out to Karen for the excellent production values, keep it up and have a happy Christmas and prosperous new year.

    Very nice piece of kit. I watch a lot of Japanese manufacturing programs and they are very good at what they do. Crack detecting using dye penetrative, I always found it messy, but it is a relatively quick process off-site. We developed an ultra sonic system to check for cracks, so much quicker and cleaner. The flash rust problem is we fixed using mist spray oil, after shot blasting. The shot blasting equipment really does open new markets for CEE, really pleased for you.

    Looks like a great machine for you. And pretty fun to use. If you're going to be carting it around a lot maybe a dedicated trailer for it would be easier than loading it on the Ute every time. Could even put a water tank on it just for more flexibility.

    Be quicker and probably more effective to use a magnaflux magnetic particle inspection, especially with the humidity you mentioned. For even more sensitivity, you can get particles that glow under a blacklight in a dark room.

      @Murgoh 5 місяців тому +2

      Yes, I work on truck mounted loading cranes and according to the local regulations (Finland) those have to be stripped down and thoroughly inspected every 10 years. At the same time we usually do a full overhaul, replacing any wear parts, as the crane is already stripped so it's little extra work and cost at that point. One part of the inspection is magnafluxing the high stress areas. We have a guy come over to do it, you have to be certified to do the actual inspection though we do the disassembly, overhaul and reassembly, and he uses fluorescent dye in a spray can. Shows cracks really clearly.

    I am a senior design engineer and for 26 years, all I do is design capital equipment. The anti-rotation brackets on the discharge ball valves of the air compressor, those are the details that your extra money is paying for. That designer/builder, was thinking when they added those. They only added a few bucks to the overall build, but as far as usability, mod's like those are huge to the end user.
