  • Automotive
  • Iron, steel and metal foundries
  • Heat treat operations
  • Forging operations
  • Small stamping parts manufacturers

Outstanding Performance

The Barrel Machine line provides outstanding performance and reliability. Designed for foundry, forge and heat treat requirements. Wheelabrator units are equipped with EZEFIT® blast wheels for faster cleaning cycles and superior durability.

The Wheelabrator Barrel machine is the ideal solution to clean small to medium size parts that would normally become jammed in traditional Tumblast machine.

The Wheelabrator Barrel Machine is the ideal solution to clean parts that would normally become pinched or jammed in our traditional Tumblast machine, reducing chances of part damage. Barrel machines are designed for easy maintenance to provide shorter downtime.

Typical uses for system includes the removal of sand, scale, rust and other contaminants from forged, heat treat and cast parts.

Barrel Machine Models are available for load capacities of 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 cu. ft.
