The history of Vapormatt can be traced all the way back to the invention of the jet engine when the first wet blasting machine was developed for the surface finishing of sufficient quality for cast turbine parts. Wet blasting (or vapor blasting) continues to be a highly effective finishing solution for aerospace components such as turbine blades, and composite parts like propellers, landing gear, and wheels.
But what Vapormatt wet blasting machines (vapor blasting machines) are most suited to the task?
They basically split into two types:
1. Manual machines – Most suited to lower production volumes or where the design of the aerospace components regularly differ from one another.
2. Automatic machines – A better option when production volumes are higher or when batches of the same components need to be processed.
Our wet blasting machines (and the wet blasting process in general) are known for their high levels of process control. More control in fact, than any other type of finishing process. This ensures exactly the right surface finish can be achieved – which, for example, is important prior to inspection or complying with SPMs.
In conjunction with the reliability of automation, you can ensure that every part will be treated in precisely the same way. Automation is more productive too, making ROI very compelling.
